This is sad.According to the Gallup polling organization, Americans now think most member of Congress are corrupt.
Gallup reports, "A recent USA Today/Gallup poll finds that the percentage of Americans who say that most members of Congress are corrupt has increased significantly from the beginning of this year, and is now at the point at which slightly fewer than half of Americans believe most members are corrupt. This is similar to what Gallup measured just prior to the 1994 elections. At the same time, relatively few Americans think their own member is corrupt. The American public is more likely to trust the Democrats in Congress -- rather than the Republicans -- to handle the issue of corruption, although the vast majority of Americans believe corruption in Washington involves both parties equally."
It is really sad that Americans have lost confidence in their government.
But who can really blame them with all the scandals that the Republicans have produced? And what's worse, they are doing nothing about it!
People are fed up with the failure of leadership that has been demonstrated by John Boehner and the Republicans.
It is time for a change and time to reform ethics!
