Politicians and Media types want a return to civility, in their eyes the American public should be seen and not heard.....like the good old days!

Over the last couple of weeks I have tuned into the news only to hear the Media types and Political types calling for a return to civility, for what I don't know, they brought on the current state of commentary themselves with their greed and arrogance this applies to both of the above mentioned groups. The former Speaker of The House, Newt Gingrich, was on with Bill Orielly last week when they were discussing civility and how we have a need to move back in that direction, how so much criticism is counterproductive to our political system, and how much could be accomplished if the people in both political parties would just sit down and calmly discuss the nations woes. The same sentiments were voiced on MSNBC by Dylan Ratigan this morning along with his unmemorable guest when he referred to blogger's as toxic and how cynical everyone has become.

The toxic blogosphere is nothing more than Americans voicing their opinions about how the country is being run or should I say run into the ground by the very people we have entrusted to work on our behalf, that's our elected officials in case that one got by you, plain and simple they are working for themselves first and 'we the people' are lagging woefully behind. It's understandable that the politicians and the media are upset, but that's 'tough s_ _t' as the old saying goes. Mr. former Speaker, all of his political buddies and the media should fast forward to the here and now, the good old days are gone forever we've all been given a look behind the curtain and we don't like what we've seen.

Remember, you can make a difference and your vote really does count. The elections coming up in 2010 and 2012 will be a chance to secure our future as a democracy.
