Why Do We Keep Electing Lawyers

Thomas Jefferson knew in 1821 and wrote this warning to future generations. Nearly all the founding fathers gave us warnings of things to look out for. This warning was written 180 years ago and we still don't listen even midst today's troubles. "If the present Congress errs in too much talking, how can it be otherwise in a body to which the people send 150 lawyers, whose trade it is to question everything, yield nothing, & talk by the hour? That 150 lawyers should do business together ought not to be expected." --Thomas Jefferson, Autobiography, 1821 I have never understood why we think we need lawyers to work for us in Congress, let's put working people in there and limit terms of service so no one can make a career of politics. I say 1 term in 1 office in 1 lifetime. Whether it is county commission or mayor or whatever only 1 term in 1 office then a big share of the politicking, and graft would end.

Lets make sure that we don't forget in November 2010, the house is dirty and we need to clean it.

Cafferty can say a lot in a short time and does not beat around the bush. These two videos total under 4 minutes.

Let's clean the House in November and one third of the Senate, I mean totally clean. Don't leave one incumbent in office, they just get more corrupt the longer they are there. Remember, We Put Them There! And only we can take them out.

I really feel that there should never be a reelection, not term limits but term limit. One term in one office in one lifetime, then go home and back to work. No retirement, or special lifetime favors like health insurance etc.
