The Purpose for Term Limits
The premise for term limits is fundamental to the proper function of our United States Government.
Anyone who opposes the concept of term limits is disagreeing with the purpose of our American Revolution. We do not want to be lead by a king, we want to be managed according to the way the owners of the country agreed to, the U.S. Constitution.
Government is the biggest single business in any state or this country. This huge business is owned by “We the people…” who hire managers to run this business responsibly.
The management positions in our Government have titles like president, senator and congressman. They are not leaders. They are the managers that “We the people” hire to provide security, infrastructure and make rules known as laws. This system of government built by our forefathers, who were geniuses, was designed in a way that any idiot can run. It is not more complicated than that.
The objective of these managers is to do their job and then ‘get out of the way’ and not leave a mess. Most of these managers think they ARE leaders and insult us by thinking we can’t get along with out them. The fact is they are leaving a mess and it is a form of job security. Like the bookkeeper who has all the passwords, so they can’t fire her.
The best way to dispose of these inept proceduralists is term limits. Three terms for Congressman, two terms for Senators and Presidents and Governors
Thank you for reading my opinion and I will do everything I can to promote term limits.
Editorial about Ernie Chambers Nebraska citizens have a unique responsibility in the governance of our state by the fact we have only a Senate in our Unicameral Legislature. Our House of Representatives consists of the citizens our state. That means we, the citizens, must be engaged in the legislative process and speak directly to all our senators when pressing issues arise. We must let our Senators know what must be done to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity. If these words are compromised in any way by a member of Our Legislature we have an obligation to voice our concern to our Senators. When Senator Chambers says he would “kill a cop if he had a gun” and “police have a license to kill” is bordering on treason and is sowing the seeds of anarchy. This language can not be tolerate by any elected official in the state or country and he must be impeached. This is not free speech, it is ‘yelling fire is a crowded theater” and undermines our system of law and order. If we do not express our outrage at these remarks, we are agreeing with these statements. If our Senators do not act to impeach, censor or force him to resign, they are also agreeing with these statements. This is no time for political correctness. Please call each senator to express your opinion and fulfill your obligation to act as a member of Nebraska’s House of Representatives.
