Today I read David Brooks' NY Times article, The Two Earthquakes.While I might not be quite as optimistic as Mr. Brooks, I do think people are ready for a real change.
We put the Democrats in power, and we still seem to have an endless war in Iraq.
Whether you agree with the Iraq war or not, it is pretty easy to agree that government does not have much to do with the common man today. Money equals access to government today.
That's about as deep as I want to get. I try to stay away from political posts on my blogs since there are lots of people who pay more attention to politics than I do.
Still I would love to see government become a place where the lobbyists don't make the decisions for our politicians.
I like seeing the people jerk the politicians around. Just maybe the politicians will figure out who pays their checks.
Read the David Brooks article and hope that he is right.
