Gang Sorry. I generally avoid political statements but this really upset me and I need to vent.
I was in DC this weekend and the Washington Post reported that 12% of the American people gave George Washington an Unfavorable job performance rating.
George Washington! Man did this torque me off. What that guy pulled off and what he had to go through and then 1 out of 8 of us gives him an unfavorable? And these are the same people voting for today's elected representatives?
Maybe Churchill was right. "The best argument against democracy is 15 minutes w/the average voter."
Sorry, I respect everyone's opinions and look for the wisdom in everything but it is really hard for me to see a silver lining here. One out of 8 of us thinks George Washington did a poor job!!!!
:rant:
Maybe one of you kind souls out there can fill me in on whatever it is I'm missing in this country's popular culture these days.
