So, what you're saying is that you want term limits to subvert the democratic process?

Who cares if he argues for escalating conflict? If that's what the people of Arizona want, then more power to them. If your ideas are so damn good, why don't you try and convince the people of Arizona instead of taking away their choices?


I want term limits so people with principles get into office not poster child that most uninformed voters will continue to vote for them because the incumbent knows exactly which platitudes to repeat and has the right (R) or (D) label next to their name. I'm curios have you seen the statistics on how hard it is to vote an incumbent out of office? When you have the weight of the political establishment & money from special interests not that hard to steer the sheep in who to vote for.

I care, 5 trillion dollars worth of debt incurred from dumbass wars, American soldiers lives lost, millions of people hating us all across the ME and for what?

it's no contradiction to disagree with the policy of a politician while respecting the will of the voters who reelected him.

Yea, I just don't believe you because you're acting like a heartless scumbag. Term limits just force the people to have inexperienced politicians who turn to lobbyists for advice. You see that on the state level all the time. Since you're a Republican, I can understand why you'd want to implement failed state-level policies at the federal level, but that just seems stupid to me.


Waah! He didn't express sadness that the warmonger is dying!

As opposed to experienced politicians who know which lobbyists to turn to for "advice?"

You should definitely not refer to the false dichotomy of "the voters reelected him" as anything other than an indictment of a failed system. Senators shouldn't even be elected by the people anyways.

Historically they were selected by the state legislatures.
