The Gallup polling organization
reports that public confidence in Congress has sunk to an all-time low: in the
latest annual survey, only 10% of Americans gave Congress a thumbs up.
This new low doesn't surprise me. Does it surprise you?
The surprise—the great mystery—is
that we keep re-electing the folks who are doing such a rotten job, and that so
many citizens don't even bother to vote to change the charade that passes for government
in
Washington. Way more than 90% of incumbents get re-elected time after time.
Do you think your Senators and Representative
are doing what's right for America and for Americans?
Think again.
[Reminder:
no polling organization in America is capable of reaching a true random sample
of persons for any survey, and all polling organizations "massage"
their data to "improve" the results, so all poll results should be
viewed as rough guesses about the truth.]
