For those of us that my be old enough to remember… but not too old to forget… there was an old Tv game show called “To Tell the Truth”. A panel of four people questioned three contestants who all claimed to be the same person. The object of the game was to deduce from their answers, who in fact was the real person, and what their occupation actually was. Here’s an update version of the same game.

SO… HAVE YOU GUESSED WHO THIS IS YET ?
AND WHAT THEIR JOB IS ?
Did you guess who they are and win the game?
Well… “win”… that’s another relative term.
They are indeed… “ELITE”. There’s only 435 of them verses 300 million of us.
That’s right…. they’re the 435 Congressmen and Senators… they are the one’s that are suppose to have us as the number one consideration. Now there’s something to laugh about… or cry about depending on your perception. They are so busy running this country into the ground that foreign countries have to financially bale us out and prop us up because their economy is tied to ours… and if we fall… they fall. So sad that it’s gotten this bad. Probably beyond fixing… and that’s the tragedy. We don’t have to wait for a natural disaster to do us all in… it’s man made! We don’t have to wait for a terrorists to do us all in… politicians greed and corruption are doing it for them. So where will it all end… probably a total social meltdown to disaster. If there’s a Superior All Powerful Being or God… their return could be nothing less than a blessing. Not the legacy that I’d hoped for … not what I’d want for my children or grandkids.
Political… Me? … not really… Anti-Political? … who wouldn’t be? Vote them all out… give one party 100% control… remove their excuses… which party… I don’t care… and see if they do the job they’re paid to do… if not, reverse the party on the next vote. So which party wants to go first? … probably neither… knowing they have to fix the problem without having ENDLESS EXCUSSES! … AND BLAMING EACHOTHER.
FINAL QUESTION: History…History… What happens to a civilization when the population no longer has faith or trust in their corrupt government? (easy question… bet you know the answer).
