Invisible Headlines

The Senate is quickly approaching the end of the current spending authority. Our elected representatives must quickly agree on a spending plan for the upcoming fiscal year.

That's One of the Headlines you probably missed.

Along with many others like New York State senator Espada has been charged with embezzling money from a nonprofit organization.

Important stories about YOUR government and representatives and the top story on the news:

Michael Vick wants a dog.

The American People need to take personal responsibility for the lame duck congress. Their complete "out-of-sight-out-of-mind" state is ruining the Government. Citizens NEED to pay attention to the major political issues. Otherwise, our legislature will not be so much of a representative body as much as an Oligarchy. And that's on the people who are not willing to elect those officials who will do what is right for the country rather than their party.

Then and only then can we pass simple bills like giving 9/11 responders health coverage, let alone figure out how to spend a trillion dollars.
