Yes, we do have the government we deserve. Where is the outrage? Last weekend, 500,000 people took to the streets of Los Angeles...to protest the immigration bill. Why aren't they protesting the war, the lies, the tax cuts for the wealthy, no health care, etc.? Because people don't say/do anything until their basic survival is on the line. The people who I elected, the Dems, no longer speak for me either. I cringe at how spineless they've been through all this. Until people stand up in the streets or vote all the idiots out, we can expect more of the same.
