These are the top 10 most wanted changes by the average american. It is clearly not the wanted changes of our government. It is time to vote all the liberal socialists out. Vote the reps in.....and it they don't cut it for the people....vote them out too! Although it appears that they all have learned their lesson with obama.

Funny I used to be a rep till they went all right wing and crazy. I guess all they have left are the extremists. When Palin is your hero, you need to re-evaluate your outlook.

A political party is or should be about 'ideology'. Although I agree that they have all lost their way. That's why I'm a registered Blank and have been for years!!

What is a sane person to make of the news these days? We have the worst economic meltdown most of us ever experienced, which caused severe job loss, [a drop in the value of] homes and investments, and such a large state government budget crisis that even closing campgrounds is threatened. The causes of the crisis are not complex or mysterious. It was reckless and greedy behavior by bankers and the financial industry, at least 20 years of deregulation of the same industry, and running up the deficit by the Bush-Cheney administration. The streets should be full of protesters demanding punishment of the guilty, and firm controls to avoid repeat behavior by the banking and financial industry. What we get instead is the Tea Party trying to shift all the blame to President Obama, who took office after the crisis peaked in September 2008; demanding more uncontrolled capitalism, meaning even less control of the economy wreckers; screaming for the right to suffer and die of cancer without health insurance; and criticizing every step taken in the last year to avert a depression as communism and other foolish words. Turns out the Tea Party is a smokescreen funded by millionaires — probably billionaires by now — whose motive is to protect their right to continue to rip us all off and distract our attention from reining in their financial reign of terror on our country.
Richard you forgot to mention what part giving all those mortgages to people who couldn't afford them and when the people couldn't pay for the mortgages the banks were left with a lot of worthless paper
Richard you forgot to mention what part giving all those mortgages to people who couldn't afford them and when the people couldn't pay for the mortgages the banks were left with a lot of worthless paper and a lot of debt. Could that have helped cause the financial meltdown as well. The people you should be blaming are the two in Congress who were pushing for even more bad mortgages, mainly Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, they have been in office for many many years long b4 Obama even thought of running for office. Truth be known our own government is responsible for the financial crisis, housing crisis, and the problems with Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid because they spent the money that was supposed to be left alone to pay for the programs and now they want us to believe that the problems just happened all by themselves.
Tea Party mostly made up of just plain folk David Harsanyi David Harsanyi is a nationally syndicated columnist.
Yesterday I waded into a mass of Tea Party protesters gathered at the front of Colorado’s Capitol and completely forgot to brace myself for a “small-scale mimicry of Kristallnacht” (as New York Times columnist Frank Rich once characterized these events). As it turns out, earlier I happened to peruse a new CBS/New York Times poll detailing the attitudes of Tea Party activists, who, it turns out, are more educated than the average American, more reflective of mainstream anxieties than any populist movement in memory, and more closely aligned philosophically with the wider electorate than any big-city newsroom in America. What seemed to be the biggest news derived from the poll nationally? A plurality of Tea Party activists do not deem Sarah Palin qualified for the presidency — proving, I suppose, that some people have the ability to be exceptionally fond of a political celebrity without elevating her to sainthood. More significantly, the polling showed that most Tea Party activists believe the taxes they pay are “fair.” The largest number of them want their movement to work to reduce the size of government rather than focus on cutting budget deficits or lowering taxes. Whether you concur or not with this viewpoint, it exhibits more economic sophistication than we often hear from pandering senatorial candidates. It was news that Tea Party activists — unlike our president or most senators — send their children to public schools. (With a public monopoly in place, where else are they expected to send their children?) The majority of them also deem Social Security and Medicare worthy taxpayer burdens, putting a crimp in the left-wing mythology that the anarchist mob is about to explode. .......................>>>>...............>>>>.............http://www.dailygazette.net/De.....r00501&AppName=1
I'm surprised that overpaid school administrators and teachers are not on Richard's enemies list-lol-
As Schenectady's former teachers union President he has been strangely silent about the collapse of his "award winning" district. What are his solutions? Right blame the tea party patriots for his socialist demands. The problem in this County are too few tea party protesters screaming in the streets about over taxation.
Richard Terry is all wet. His silly demands keep raising taxes and spending.
The worst school district in the State has a $160 MILLION budget? Can we be the worst and spend a little less? No one will notice. Than he has the nerve, the gall, the brass, to blame the tea party patriots for his excesses.
When is this administration going to start taking responsibility for the programs they started that aren't working and start concentrating on what this country wants and needs and that is jobs, smaller government, and less spending and many of the problems we currently have will start to disappear.
