Cleaning "Houses" and Term Limits

I received this today, and I think it is worth considering;

The entire Congress of the United States is corrupt. And
I mean both Houses and I mean both major parties.

I realize that a few Members of each House are trustworthy, but, as a group
they are absolutely the most corrupt bunch to ever disgrace our Nation as they
abuse their power at OUR ULTIMATE EXPENSE !

Just consider the suggestions here.

In November of 2010 the entire House of Representatives
will stand for re-election; all 435 of them. One third of the Senate,
a total of 33 of them,
will also stand for re-election. Vote every incumbent out.

And I mean every one of them. No matter their Party
affiliation.

Let's start all over in the House of Representatives
with 435 people who have absolutely no experience in running
that body, with no political favors owed to anyone but their own
constituents. Let's make them understand that they work for us.
They are answerable to us and they simply have to run that body
with some common sense.

Two years later, in 2012, vote the next third of the
incumbents in the Senate out.

We can do the same thing in 2014 and, by that time we will
have put all new people in that body as well.

We, the People, have got to take this Country back and we
have to do it PEACEFULLY.

That's what the Framers of our Constitution envisioned.

I am also suggesting term limits on the NEW BUNCH --8 YEARS FOR REPRESENTATIVES AND
12 YEARS OF SENATORS. NO EXCEPTIONS. THE LONGER THEY STAY IN OFFICE THE MORE
POWER THEY GET AND THEY SEEM TO LOVE IT AND WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET RE-ELECTED.

WE HAVE TERM LIMITED THE PRESIDENT WHY NOT TERM LIMIT ALL THE CONGRESS TOO.

Please, if you love this Country, send this (as I have done)
to absolutely everyone whose email address appears in your
address book.

This thing can permeate this Country in no time. Let's make it happen.**

VOTE THE POWER ABUSERS OUT........LET'S TAKE AMERICA BACK !!!!!!!!!
IF YOU LIKE THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING IN OUR COUNTRY, THEN DO NOTHING and prepare to
pay the consequences.........

George Washington or Thomas Jefferson (don't remember if both or one of them) didn't believe we needed a senate. The house was good enough. I think I agree.

The House was supposed to be regular people who would donate two years of their lives to go and serve their county, and then return to their occupations. Hence, the two year term.

I say make the system pure again. Get rid of the lobbyist and put real common sense people in there who have no political or finiancial agenda.
