We Are Americans

I'm listening to all the Representatives and Senators talk about this hot topic of "Bailout" or "Rescue Plan." Something I've heard today and I've been hearing for a long time is that these so-called Legislators keep referring to me as the "common" or "ordinary" citizen. I've had enough of it. I'm anything but "common" and "ordinary" as are my fellow Americans. There is an air of superiority and condescension when you read between the lines of what these oligarchs keep repeating. As they write law they develop an attitude that they are above the law. The lack of regulatory common sense law that these hand puppets have been avoiding has come back to bite them in the "you know what" and they continue to have the audacity to refer to us as "common" and "ordinary." Where is the humility of a public servant? Where is the integrity of those who can refuse the bribery and handout from Wall Street bigwigs? Why can't we find some "ordinary" citizens that can truly represent the interests of their constituent bosses? It is you and I, the backbone of American independence and productivity that makes this nation great. It is our long hours, ingenuity, honesty and sacred honor that drives the economy. How dare we be looked down upon by the power-drunken lawmakers as the poor regular Joe who has to be talked down to so we can understand this complex financial problem? We're not stupid kids and you're not our parents. You work for us, so you better listen up. You're about to be fired. The way we'll fire you is by voting you out. If that doesn't work, because we're not blind to the voter fraud schemes going on behind the scenes, than we can call for a referendum on each and every one of you, Republican and Democrat, from a grassroots effort. Bottom line - We are lifelong voters, concerned and aware citizens, hard-working Americans and we are the government. We will not be talked down to and we will not sit by and watch our country be auctioned off to the highest bidders. We are anything but "common" or "ordinary." We are rare and extraordinary. We are Americans!
