who else is tired of politics these days i dont believe anyone anymore because they say one thing and i know when they get in office it will be different. now they say fantasies that people want to hear but we all know what is needed we dont want to go through or hear. It seems like now they are focusing on things that is not the big problems bu the small ones yes what they are talking about needs to be talked about but we need to talk about making our country great like it use to be. I would like to see a third party that is real and not so weird. i think that the people need to provoke a real change and get everyone in congress and the senate out and put new people in and show that the american people are serious about changes in where are government is going and how it is run please let me know what you think about the subject.

Politicians promise to build a dam even when there is no river.This is the same all over the world. Yes we are all tired of politicians. I hate to call them leaders. They dont deserve to.

Yes, very much to say the very least. There are times where the only thing that is intriguing about politics is who is trying to sell us down the river more. Of course, it is sadly a necessary evil to keep up with it. There are just something about that, where you keep your friends close and your enemies closer. And those in politics are just really going to be considered your enemies to an extent, depending on what they are doing. I do really dread the news, to see what those politicians are doing now. There are a fair few honest ones out there, but really finding them can be quite an adventure. Not to mention quite a level of frustration beyond all belief. I really do think that there are just going to be times however where I tired of what they are doing. They are most certainly not helping. But I have to really keep up with it, because it is just not unlike a trainwreck which you cannot look away from.

I can't stand all the dishonesty within politics and I hate to see them flaunting all the extras they get even after they are no longer polictians, they should get the same as any other worker but gee wouldn't it be good to have some honesty.

Me! I'm so sick and tired of politics and I am so sick and tired of being told who and what to vote for. I think that if people in the country want to make some serious changes and want to make a difference, then they have to do more than just voting and contacting elected officials because right now it doesn't seem like those people do much of anything or have the power to do much of anything, but yet we keep holding out fate in their hands.

If you are tired of these lying politicians in your country, promised on one thing but did another after got elected, those who capitalized on your fantasies in order to get your vote; then you need to effect a real change in the congress and white house, vote for a new political party or independent candidates, not going about your voting like business as usual in each election year, no more choose between two lesser thieves in order to refresh your love for politic again inside USA.

Here in the U.S. I have been tired of politics for a long time. I trusted what George W. Bush said and I think he tried to meet his promises but of course Congress stood in the way and he had to deal with 9/11. I think Ronald Reagan was the best in my memory at keeping promises and doing things to keep and return the U.S. to the power and reputation that we had enjoyed through most of our history. In my opinion Obama has been a disaster for the U.S. in almost every way. He kept almost none of his promises, he put or tried to put people who were close to being criminals in his cabinet, he has tried to make government bigger and make people think that government must take care of them rather than people being able to take care of themselves, the list goes on and on. Now both major parties are doing a poor job of putting forth candidates for any office that are any good for the country and the people.

I just watched news earlier and the most hot topic was about the politics and the law evader. It is so tiring to hear news about the corruptions in politics and how they abuse the little ones. I cannot tell now which party is saying the truth. The fact is, no matter how good is the program of the government and the people who lead us in politics their capabilities are limited and everyone, as a human, has the tendency to make a corruption because of greed in money.
