Throw the Bums Out?

Reading time 20 seconds

“Throw the bums out. I’m voting for an outsider, not one of those Washington insiders growing fat on the taxpayers.” Right.

Look, I’ve been following politics like it was the World Series for over forty years and I used to believe that too. Finally I realized that nobody who doesn’t know how Washington works stands a chance in the Congress. They get eaten alive.

Just be sure you hold whoever gets your vote accountable. Phone, write, and e-mail. They do listen. Don’t buy into the ‘throw the bums out philosophy’. Would you hire a guy to fix your car who didn’t know auto mechanics?
