What do you expect when the elected officials are in office to feather their own beds and the hell with their constituants!
This coming election, I am going to vote for everyone that is not in office now. I know that eventually the newly elected will turn into crooks and thieves like those in office now, but for a little while it MIGHT be like it is supposed to be. Government of, for and by the people!

80% don't trust Washington, yet 90% will vote for one of the the political parties in Washington. The respondents are either lying or stupid.

I think it is supposed to be that way. Is why we have the second amendment. Not so much to protect ourselves against criminals, but to protect ourselves en masse against an invading government. We have come full circle it seems.

Poll: 4 out of 5 Americans don't trust Washington
What--Only 4 out of 5? Apparently 1 out of 5 Americans does not have a clue about what happens inside the beltway.

Conservatives seem to forget that Washington is comprised of Republicans. Apparently the distrust doesn't apply to the GOP.
