AMEN!

It must be awfully frustrating to be a politician today. If you want to serve the people, which way do you go? Only two years ago, the people seemed to be for health care and government help in getting us out of the "great recession." Now there has been a flip-flop. So, if you listened to your constituency and voted for those things two years ago, you probably got voted out yesterday (unless your name is Harry Reid).
I'm not trying to make a political statement one way or the other. It has simply served to remind me of the fickle nature of people in general.
Jesus put it this way (Luke 7: 31-32): "To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like? They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to each other: 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not cry.'"

I love Atchley's post.
I feel worse for our country than the politicians. While I have nothing good to say about them, the fact that the people of this country change our mind with the direction of the wind and want immediate gratification is what will run us into the ground. We need politicians who will be contrarian but I don't know how they will get elected.
