I attended a house fund raising meeting for the campaign of our senator that was seeking reelection after a lifetime of being a senator. I had the opportunity to sit with him along with a handful of people. My question to him was concerning term limits since he had been in office for so long and was not in very good health. He looked at me and laughed. Then he explained that it took him this long to get into a position where he actually had the clout to get things done and it would be ridiculous to just keep bringing people in to start that cycle again each time. I responded that our government was set up so that regular people came in and served, then went back to their life and living. That way we had a variety of citizens serving, lots of opinions and experience being accessed. He looked at me like I had 3 heads and turned away to the next person. Our state senator lives right down the road from me and is a 32nd degree Mason that has been in office for a long, long time. He is like a ghost, nobody ever sees him anywhere except when he shows up at the required meetings at the capitol. These are just my local experiences, I can't fathom the level of corruption at higher levels of government. It seems like the whole system just needs to crash and burn.

Well I do feel like it’s a lost cause. They have been planning this for so long. And, our side has no one. No one is rising up. Most of the sheeple are just that; clueless sheeple. We need a revival in this country and in the world. I don’t see away out. Our government is absolutely despicable. I hate the wars, the lies, their agenda. The depth of the depravity knows no end.
