Tired of lawmakers ‘playing along'

To The Daily: I know there are millions of American voters like me who are so disgusted with our government that we could throw up.

Politicians don't even get settled into their comfortable chairs in Congress until they're bombarded with bribe money and the promise of a long career in Congress if they are willing to play along with special interests. That is where our vote ends and corruption begins.

If there was ever a time in our history as American citizens and voters to vote for term limits in Congress, that time is now.

In 2014, I challenge all Americans to see their votes as a fire hose and give our U.S. Capitol building a good, old-fashioned enema.
