Politico said after West's statement was released, Kaufman took to the airwaves on South Florida's WFTL-AM to slam her critics.So, let me get this straight. We don't like our duly elected government, so we have the right to remove it by force. Surely, whatever the 2nd ammendment means does not include Anne Get your Gun?!!! If so, I'm for heatlhcare, I'm for not extending Bush Tax cuts. I'm against the 2 unpaid wars. I'm for immigration reform but not to the extent of "marching everybody down to Texas". So, I guess I can pick and choose who I use my 2nd ammendment right on. We are a Repubic build on democractic principles. The elected government is allowed in office until such time as there is an election. Then and only then do we have the power to change the government. This is the catch, you may not get the government you personally want. What a load of nonsense.

I cannot believe Kaufman expresses the views of most Floridians; if so, I'll not be visiting Florida anytime soon, the Everglades and Disney notwithstanding.

The posts on this article show that this nation is pointed in the same direction. The signs are prominent; a moral climate that can best be described as "the lower parts of a sewer", public officials lying through their teeth to gain power; the rich buying power and influence with money, another group using tax money to buy votes; the division between the "haves" and the "have-nots" is reaching Grand Canyon proportions; deep-seated racial hatred, a growing class hatred, these are just a few of the signs of the growing weakness that will ultimately lead to national collapse. Self-serving interests are tearing this nation apart; hatred and violence will in the end destroy this nation as effectively as bombs from an outside enemy. And for the record, God is neither a Republican or a Democrat, He is not white, black, brown or yellow. If you are going to quote His word then do it right: He said, "God is no respecter of person, but in EVERY NATION He will accept those who love Him and obey Him." Kaufmann is not a problem but she is an open symptom of the terminal disease that is growing within this nation.

Then get rid of all of The Lobbyist Because They are Out for only The special Interest They represent and The big bucks. And Then make It a treasones Crime punishable By death For all goverment Officials That Do Not Listen To The Will Of The people But of special Interest Groups And Big Buisness. It Is Like the old addage " when The Sh..! Hits The fan the First People To be Shot Will Be The goverment Officials & Lawyers"

The elected members of both parties know they do a lousy job governing. But they also know their constituents have faith in them. A true genuine independent or third party candidate has about as much chance of winning a congressional seat as a piece of ice has of not melting while left out in the August sun. Tea party is a Republican with front bumpers. Green party is a Democrat with no bumpers. Independents? They go either way. The problem is any person getting elected wants to stay elected. The press plays up what the polls show and the people respond. Losing an election isn't the end of the world. But try telling some people posting here that.

This is taking the Lord's name in vain of the WORST sort! I am so sick of people trying to make thier hateful, outrageous and UnAmerican utterances legitimate by trying to convince folks that God is on their side. They should read or reread the bible because they obviously didn't get the message contained therein!!

He ran a campain of not telling the people how he helped them,or what he did for the country, but of constant mud slinging because he did nothing in 4 years. He could not defend his 4 years in congress. Joyce Kaufmann called him out on this, but his backers could not see that he was a do nothing congressman. He was a Democrat so he could do no wrong they had blinders on as usual. Joyce told it as it was. She is a light at the end of the tunnel and she will be proven right. She now gets to stay in South Florida, no snow , no wind and no crummie weather only sun shine and a great job to go to and people who love her. If people would listen to her they would know the truth about her.
