Politics is Frustration

We have the best political system in the world , but when you watch the wheels turn it can seem the most ridiculous and ineffectual mechanism of governing.
Obamas message of forgetting politics and getting things done was a great campaign speech but it doesn`t happen in reality. In truth 40-48 percent of government want HIM TO FAIL.. Limbaugh even said it out loud on the radio. They are rooting against America`s success. It is better for their ideology for us to suffer so they can regain power. Thats what our political system is made up of. Its kinda crazy.
It is more important for congressman to make a personal statement then to assist in creating good legislation. The republicans are going to lose their case with the stimulus and instead of working on a plan they all can live with they are simply going to go on record as opposing some aspect of it. 8 yrs ago , it was the other side hoping Bush would fail.
There is no alternative governmental system that I prefer , ours is the best system in the world , its just that even as the best , on a scale of 1-10 , it tops out as maybe a Six...
I am not exactly sure where I stand on the massive government intervention of the last year but do believe some form of stimulus is a good thing right now and just hope the ugly back and forth we see on the News will eventually bear fruit for the good of America.
