The continuing problems with ObamaCare (and the entirety of the health industry), Syria and the entire Mid-East, banking scandals, America’s declining role in maintaining world order, education (or the lack thereof) and hopelessly low unemployment raise the question of: “Who is in charge here?”

That question sent me to the Googleictionary to look up the definitions of ‘leader’ and ‘manager’. It turns out there are many differing definitions but I distilled the results into the following:

       The leader’s role is to see the future and organize an enterprise to engage with that distant vision.

       The manager’s role is to organize resources with a goal of efficiency and/or profit.

Clearly, our federal government is neither. The President may dream of a utopian future but lacks the organizational skills to organize even a Kenyan picnic.

Congress is much too invested with special interests to risk asking Google for a definition of efficiency. They understand profit, but only on a personal level.

Forty two percent of Congressional members are lawyers – by education and legal apprenticeship – trained to look backwards for precedent. We need people who can see the future and make appropriate laws for future generations.

Instead, we continue to elect Doofuses.  It’s time to clean the House (and the Senate).
