CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS SHOULD BE OUT-ON-BAIL NOT BAILING OUT

By Domenick J. Maglio PhD.    Neo Traditionalist

The American public has seen enough of Congress’s political sleight of-hand. Like a “Shell Game” they move the focus from one emergency bailout to another crisis to keep us from finding the truth about their filthy hands in creating this economic disaster.

We the people must demand a special prosecutor to get to the bottom of punishing governmental representatives receiving unethical and illegal kickbacks. The money can  easily be traced back to executives who donated money or special benefits to Congressional leaders to initiate laws that serve their special interests. The people’s interest is ignored

The Congressional Club, the Executive branch and the media are no longer functioning as a check-and-balance on each other.   They glibly talk about transparency while behind the citizen’s back, not only do they bailout incompetence amongst their corporate buddies but make deals to avoid being “outed” for self-serving unethical behavior. The government elites’ self-protection club is about the only thing in Washington, DC that is functioning well.

The most immoral of our congressional leaders are using their spotlight to give hush, bailout money and allow “golden parachutes” to the very executives that line their pockets with contributions and corporate benefits.   These pompous crooks are given a pass by the press corps who laughs along with them while they verbally crucify other elites in business and government without calling for investigations and punishment that might singe them. After their tough antics in front of the cameras these phonies continue to grant lucrative bailouts to their friends.

The imperial Congress has to be made accountable for their mutual, beneficial and probably corrupt relationship with corporations. The Barney Franks, Christopher Dodds and Charles Rangels have to be immediately investigated for their already identified unethical and possibly criminal behavior. They can no longer be allowed to cast more dubious legislation and bailouts to solidify their power.  President Bush and other executive personnel need to testify under oath the reasons for their silence or cooperation in the mismanagement of the economy.

This farce of smoke and mirrors continues each week with another revelation and bailout scheme to stabilize the economy. It only causes uncertainty and inflames fear that enables them to push their personal agenda.  We need to get to the bottom of this cancer.

The American people know in their own lives that to regain health you have to “suck it up” and take the right bitter medicine. First you have to identify the problem by examining all the possibilities of what is causing the difficulty. In this financial panic

before we can remove the financial uncertainty that is compounding the fear, we need to demand a special prosecutor. Like any competent professional he will examine the history of this debacle to determine the web of deceit and remove the parasites that have infected our economy.

Citizens understand the imposing of bailouts is not solving the cause of our economic downturn. It is the government elites’ underhanded attempt to control our economy. In a Socialized America, government elites will magnify their importance and power  attempting to micromanage our economic decisions. This will radically decrease our freedom.

Only we middle class Americans will lose. The rich and the poor will gain. The upper class will lock in their wealth and power while the poor will be given redistributed wealth for their vote. The taxes will primarily come from the middle class taxpayers. This will cause the demise of the middle class and capitalism.

The Special Prosecutor can and should cut through the special interests presenting the facts of how this happened and punish the scoundrels.  We the people should become more vigilant in electing moral representatives who will follow our constitutional law.

Citizens need to take the power back from government representatives. A march on Washington will put fear into the hearts of these out-of-control egotists. The free market economy and individual rights protected under the constitution attracted worldwide immigration to the shores of the USA. It was our freedom to excel and incredible work ethic that has made us the envy of the world. In the past we were blessed by moral leadership.

The present cast of greedy power grabbing and self-serving buffoons is leading us down a path towards being a third world nation. Their excuses, lack of responsibility and blaming everyone else must be ended. We should drain the swamp that is infesting America.

Our destiny as the leader of the free world depends on our ability to cleanse the government of these slimy politicians.
