Five Hundred and Forty- Five People Who Are Failing America as told by Charlie Reese - American Patriot

       Since the first of the year over 300 bills have been past by the House of Representatives and have been sent to the Senate where they sit not even being voted on – why? The answer is that these elected officials don't care about the American people, they care about themselves and their agendas.

       We have the Republican party with the majority but can't pass anything. The problem with the Republicans is that their party is split into four or five factions that are at war with each other. This lack of a common vision has not allowed them to united as a party and pass any legislation.

       Then we have the Democrats – obstructionists extraordinaire, who will not pass anything until they get their people back in power to continue the push towards Progressive Socialism. If they even attempt to talk to the other side of the isle they risk violent demonstrators who have attacked them at their homes. These the violent Communists within the Democratic party use fear and violence to the extreme. Even the house minority leader, Nancy Pelosi, has had major confrontations at her political events if there is even a hint of co-operation with the other side.

       Decades ago another American Patriot, Charlie Reese, had some words about the do-nothing Congress of the day. They bear repeating:

       "One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.”

      "Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.”

      “What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall.... It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.”

• "If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.”
  
• "If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.”
  
• "If the Army & Marines are in Iraq and Afghanistan it's because they want them in Iraq and Afghanistan ..”
  
  
• "If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.”

      "There are no insoluble government problems. Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power. Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.”

      "Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible. They, and they alone, have the power. They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses. Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees... We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!”
