Part Time Parents

What can we say about our beloved Texas government, other than where in the world are they. Here we have a bunch of appointed officials most of which I bet 90 percent of the population of texas haven’t heard of leading the way. While the people we elected to lead are nowhere to be seen. So are we to understand that the growing entity our state has become only has to be regulated every couple of years. Why do we elect part time parents? Why aren’t those in charge at the helm to bring us safely through the day? I realize that they have lives as well but isn’t the reason they were elected to take care of the states well being. Maybe they feel that even though our school systems are failing we’ll be ok till they come back. Or is it that they consider parts of the state not having potable water just a mere sniffle? What will it take for the Texas government to step up a bit in the few years they’re off and solve a few things before they go back on vacation?
Maybe I lean on our representative and senators a bit hard. We as a people should realize by now that we couldn’t get together long enough to say hi none-the-less vote for an amendment. Our parents need all of the children to stand up and speak in order for the voice to be heard saying that change is needed. We all speak softly and tread lightly which parents in the real world wished were true of every child at one point or another. So lets take off the slippers and put on the boots, because if they ignore the voice they can never ignore the tantrums and stomping fits. It would only be a matter of time before the childless vacation would be over and they would return. Yes they may be cranky about it, but hey if they want the job they’ll just have to grin and bear it. So everyone stand up, jump around, and scream for those we chose to be our fathers and mothers to come home and tidy up the place again. This place needs all the TLC it can get.
