Thanks for all those who called in...and there were many who did.

It's always a certain risk to open the phone lines and then pray that people call in; on 1/23/10, they did with rarely a moment for line to be open.  I suppose I shouldn't be too suprised though as the topic was easy for people to vent on...their loss of liberties.

Please tune in this Saturday from12-1 and we'll read the newest Declaration of Independence with the rights you feel you have lost.

Do You Think They Care?

Do you think our Federal representatives (or their staffers) care one iota about representing us?

• How many dozens of letters and emails have you sent your federal representatives in the past year? How many ridiculous form letters (that didn’t even address your concerns) have you received in return and how long did it take? The federal reps don’t care.
• How many calls have you placed to them just to have a patronizing staffer thank you for your call and say they’ll pass on your opinion to Sen. INSERT THEIR NAME? The federal reps don’t care.

Are You Finally Ready To Trust Your Conscience?

Most politicians are not bad people, but the system has a way of chewing them up and spitting them out. Once in the system, they learn to play the game and almost always compromise their integrity when it can be justified and even sometimes when it cannot. This is done while we look the other way if it’s “our guy” and/or they give us something we want. That’s the insidiousness of democracy and these “representatives” continue to do anything to stay in power.

Many of the problems that we face today can mostly be chalked up to our divisions fueled by our two beloved major parties. While we’re fighting each other and pinning down scapegoats, the hotshot politicians are laughing all the way to the bank (you know…Citi, Goldman, so on and so forth).

It was a great honor having Sheriff Jenkins on the show this last week, especially his insight into the 287g Program and how effective it is in Frederick.  Sheriff Jenkins is truly one of those “truth tellers” we talk about on the show.

I personally want to absolve Sheriff Jenkins from agreement with any of my comments about the public schools, especially my comment about the product they’re putting out.  I suggested that if we take a look at the product, with math scores at very low levels they are, that perhaps it’s time to question the process.

Stay tuned to our October 31, 2009 show where we'll delve into the public school segment in far greater detail...you won't want to miss this.
