Is it time to reign in our politicians? Are they getting into more outside of the country than within?

Question

Who elected these bums to be looking after every country except the one they were elected into office to work for? Clinton more or less stayed at home, Bush Sr. invaded Iraq and didn't finish the job. Regan pretty much stayed at home, Johnson ended the war in Viet Nam, Nixon was a stay at home yet allowed Watergate, Just who do these guys think they are to circumnavigate the globe when they haven't even seen every room in the Whitehouse. Who appointed them to be busy bodies when they cannot even look after the problems at home? Your comments please, this puzzle needs a name. Is it time to snap them back into reality, to make them promise to fix the problems we have before anything else gets done???????????????/

Answer 1

you vote for a republican war monger you get a president who spends most of his time making war in other countries. You vote in a democrat and in theory they do more social programs here at home for the people. We dont live on an island though, there is a world community out there, and we need to interact, although the way some chose to do so leaves a lot to be desired, our arrogant ignorant warmongering oil company pawn commander in chimp to name one.

Answer 2

Somewhat twisted version of history. Clinton took us to Somolia; Bush Sr. was constrained by UN and coalition agreements to only remove Iraq from Kuwait not overthrow Iraqi leadership; Reagen was responsible for one of the most radical arms buildup in history; Johnson escalated the Vietnam conflict, including covert ops in Laos and Cambodia; Nixon, who was the first US President to travel and start diplomatic relations with Communist China, began the pullout from Vietnam which was finished by Ford. Like it or not, for better or for worse, we are a part of the global community and the rest of the world has problems too. It would be nice to set an agenda of problems to be solved and follow it, but events happen simultaneously throughout the world. The other option is isolationism and that is what led to far greater and deadlier conflicts, referred to as WW I and WW II. That would also lead to economic suicide as the rest of the world needs our products far less than we need the global market.

Answer 3

We should have reigned in our politicains long ago. I am afraid that it's too late and we have lost control. I think it's time that we kick them out of office and get some new blood. I also think that it's time we took are supreme judges, lined them up on the court house steps, tar and feather them and kick them into the streets. They are perhaps more dangerous than our politicians. They have not interped the laws but rather, gave thieir own self satisfing opinion. They continue to dis-regard the laws of this land as written.
