As opposed to commenting on the Wise One's very well stated blog on his blog and missing the chance of 'Bloggin' on my own I'll comment using the F.O.
Agreed that the real bugger needin oversight is Congress. Both houses. What needs doin is riddin the halls of money totin lobbyist! As long as we allow them to buy our congressman's vote my vote, your vote, isn't worth a 'Yankee Dime' on a donkey's butt.
Like Cliff Claven at Cheer's I'm not allowed in Scranton when any of the 'Politicos' are there ;~) I 'E'mail my opinions (and boy I got 'em!) to every public employee that's answerable to me as a voting citizen.
Folks I've never been comfortable with political labels. They're even self imposed without a thorough definition. No one thinks alike. There's always that personal shading to any issue. So there are parts of my understanding that are shared with me and every division of the spectrum that are politics.
I'm a Christian & most of the folks I know that vote are Christians. So what's not gettin from our prayers & actions to our elected officials. I totally don't believe in any conspiracy or 'Evil Cabal'. Get your Senators & Representatives 'E'dress and bombard them.

- About me -- Could that speak to attributes of my character or to objects arranged around me at this time and place. To discuss attributes there must first be attributes. As a rather suspect observer they (the attributes) would be questionable to say the least should I choose to list any. If on the other hand we are speaking of objects that are within my grasp I feel as though their description would be an invasion of my privacy and by the way one that I would be responsible for and by golly there's one attribute I will claim and that's having sense enough not to incriminate myself! So! As a card carrying commie pinko of the late 60's you'll not be greatly suprised with some of my opinions. This will hopefully be a family place.

Getting over it - Amen. My over-arching thoughts to life (especially of the Christian variety) is that it's ours to accept and love - not exclude and judge. Whether or not I think it's the right thing, it's not mine to judge them. I was commanded to LOVE them - no matter who "them" is.
