Frustrated voters wave the white flag
Updated: August 21, 2010, 3:04 AM
“Where have the voters gone?” is the question. The answer lies with all of the politicians. Let them look in their mirrors and see what the voters are seeing. A pompous, overstuffed, arrogant, corrupt group of cheaters, liars, scheming what’s-in-it-for-me manipulators. The general malaise is “why vote?” Too many have been in there too long, and it’s almost an impossibility to ever remove them.
The Albany bunch should have been thrown out and replaced after their most disgusting performances and total disrespect to every constituent. The lobbyists stink to high heaven. They are so flagrantly shameless and obsessively greedy it sickens one. I am 76 years of age. I used to love politics and followed issues most closely. But out of total disgust with all their corruption, sneaky back-room deals, etc., I have thrown in my voting towel.
We need to oust all of them and, hopefully, get some in there who are not tainted with nepotism, greed, power and patronage problems. Shame on every one of these opportunists.
