It's not just that interesting rabble, the Tea Party, claiming to be speaking for me and dismissing my opinions as "socialist ravings" when I dissent. Tho that's the most troublesome, because their "Take no prisoners and poison the wells" approach to politics has EVERYONE terrified.
It's also the fact that I'm too right-wing for the liberal side of the coin. I'm in favor of slimming down the government, and balancing the budget, and not regulating EVERYTHING.
So. That leaves me totally unimportant when it comes to the polls that decide things in our 2 party system.
It's sort of sad that one of the few people I know, who actually keeps up on issues and news, has no real voice in today's government. What to do about this?
Not sure yet. But something.
