Dear Democrats, Republicans and Tea Party members...
We, "the American people" you all so righteously proclaim to be "looking out for" understand that it is inherent in your natures to bitch, bicker and squabble with each other.
We realize that any effort made to get you to stop behaving that way would be tantamount to getting someone with Tourette's to stop letting the expletives fly.
So, while life would be infinitely more pleasant were you to grow up, behave yourselves, we understand that the aforementioned bitching, bickering and squabbling is an inevitability to be treated in a "hate the sin, love the sinner" manner.
Simply put, we not only don't expect you to find common ground 99.9 percent of the time, we honestly don't even expect you to listen to opposing points of view.
At this time, however, we would appreciate it if you could put the propaganda on pause, do whatever is necessary to raise the debt ceiling to avoid the potentially catastrophic financial meltdown many fear, so that we, and you, may get back to business as usual.
For us...getting back to looking for work, trying to pay our mortgages and praying that our families will return safely from foreign battlefields.
For you...getting back to bitching, bickering and squabbling.
Thank you for taking just a few moments out of your day to actually serve our interests as opposed to your own.
Sincerely,
the "American people"
