Dirty Politics

Been reading the news this morning.  Voter registration fraud in Florida is all over the news.  And, of course, even though the RNC hired the company committing this fraud, they are denying it and are "so shocked" that this has happened.  Yeah.  Right.  What they are shocked about is being caught.  And they may have created damage that cannot be fixed before the election thereby stopping voters from casting their votes.  Way to go Greedy Old Men!  Fine way to show you "care" about all citizens.  In reality, they only care about their candidate and their agenda.  The rest of us can go to hell.  And I am not letting the Dems off the hook here.  We all need to be registered Independents and thereby forcing both parties to appeal to us, the voter.  When the lights go out at night, unless you are the rich, it is not about whether you are Republican or Democrat.  It is about can you continue to pay the bills and support your family.  A lot of us are really struggling.  And all those jobs created.  I don't know about the rest of the country, but in Texas they are low wage, think average $8/hr, no benefits, and no job security.  Try paying a mortgage and putting food on the table with that.  Heck, even paying rent on an apartment.  For the first time in my life, I am ashamed of my country.  I was raised to help those less fortunate than myself.  I grew up poor, but we lived on a farm and could grow our food.  There were those poorer than we were and Momma and Daddy believed in sharing. That feeling is gone.  Now it is all greed.  Shameful.
