Ending the "Potomac Two-Step" FOREVER!!!

I once read in a Tom Clancy novel (though I don't remember which book that it was, someone had said to the main character, it's what we call the Potomac Two-Step, it's how things get done around here, (Jack Ryan, I knew that I would remember the characters name, good book series there too, however trying to figure out where every book in the series belongs, considering that they were all written out of order to begin with is a beast of a problem). The response was, that's not how I do things. I personally loved the response and laughed at the fact that Jack Ryan was willing to do what it took to get things done and kick ass in the process.

With what Grover Norquist is doing by having the Republicans sign a no tax pledge, has basically screwed over Washington, and made sure that nothing gets done at all. Which is in a way the Potomac Two-Step since everyone that signs it is falling in line with what he happens to be saying and for the few that are telling him to go screw himself over, they usually get screwed over by him later on. Of course what doesn't help is that when it comes to the taxes on the rich, they follow Norquist to a fault since it happens to help them, and the idiot TEA baggers who are following the Republicans and aren't following their own minds for once.

We seriously need to change Washington and we need to get it changed before 2014, otherwise things are going to be worse off than we could even think of for when our kids start voting. It's not a matter of waiting for a certain time to get things changed for the better, we need to get certain people out of office like yesterday. I thought that California was the only state that had a recall, but it turned out that I was wrong on that one when another state (tried and failed) to recall their governor. Now that's something we need to do when it comes to the Republicans in office, is in each of their states, go through and do a mass recall on all of them and get them out of office period and start getting everything back to running in Washington the way that it should be in the first place. Because if we don't recall them now and get them voted out of office, then we know that they're going to have a change to gain even more influence before 2014 and make sure that they happen to stay in office. We need to change that here and now, and I'll continue to say this till I start seeing that states are running recalls to get rid of the Republican that is for their state in Washington. If we don't do this, this country will fail big time, and the Republicans will be the ones that will be fully in control over everything and they will turn a blind eye to anything that doesn't help them out at all. So yeah we need to stop them before 2014.
