Ah, I don't think it is Congress that is making "executive orders" that are jeopardizing our country. Sadly, government, all of it at this point is "for sale". Oh, and the Supreme Court needs to be reigned in.

People are looking harder at choices for the next election so they are waking up.
Don't worry. Reagan had way more Executive Orders. He also introduced czars and gave amnesty to millions of refugees because he personally believed it was just.

That all turned out fine.

Let's see, the right-wing media continually broadcasts that we should be afraid of the government and then there is a poll that shows half are afraid of the government.

For me, I am more afraid of powerful corporations, who I don't elect, more than the government, who I do elect.

The wealthy elite/powerful corporations decide who is going to run, so you don't have any real say on who you elect. You really don't have any more say on who is going to hold public office, than you do over who the corporations hire as their employees. All the politicians work for the wealthy elite, and the powerful corporations.

As soon as someone links why this useless poll means anything. This poll is just garbage that isn't based on any reality.

This is why I will NEVER vote for another Bush for President. They have no idea what freedom or liberty is about.

If it came down to Boosh vs The Hildebeast this strong right wing republican would vote for Hildebeast just to protest.

I do not think I am alone either.

Powerful corporations made possible and protected by the government you so worship.
