Voter Rage

As this legislative session, of the U.S. Congress, drags on, I am, once again, disappointed by democracy.  My blood boils as I watch greed and stupidity running rampant through the bills being considered and passed by this congress. 


How can you call it free election
When you spend tens of millions on a single campaign?
How can you call it unbiased legislation
When you sit, with the lobbyists, sipping champagne?

How can you call it leadership qualities
When you make each decision by taking a poll?
And kept that thief, in your House, with no apologies,
When you found, in his freezer, money that he stole.

How can you call it compassionate virtues
When you divvy out a pittance to those who hunger?
How can you call it family values
When you cheat, on your wife, with someone younger?

I want a veto on this political process!
