GOOOH (for Get Out Of Our House)

Recommended Posts

I've come across a truly interesting site that I'd suggest you consider. It is called GOOOH (for Get Out Of Our House), and pronounced like the word go.

 

They have an intriguing plan to evict the 435 politicians from the U.S. House of Representatives.

 

Here's the link: GOOOH | Get Out of Our House: A non-partisan political party!

Right. Elections are too hard to participate :)

Let's just all fill out a form on line.

 

... but wait, there is more...the GOOOH questionnaire must be 120 lines long. May be elections are not that hard to participate after all. :roll eyes:

I was kind of thinking along similar lines, (though I'll try to keep sarcasm out of my comments),

These movements are well meaning and well intentioned, and it is always slightly encouraging to see these attempts at rallying folks to participate in something positive, but if everybody was interested in this idea as a common cause, then we wouldn't need it because the elections would take care of the problem.

I don't think you can change the way the majority of people form their opinions, and they are the ones who are swinging the elections.:bang head:

It's a neat idea and worth taking a look at. Unless you enjoy what our gov't is doing now.

 

And the point is not about electing the same people that are on the ballots every single time. The point is about putting DIFFERENT and NEW people on those ballots.

Thanks for the post Browns Fan! It looks like another bummer year for the Brownies...

 

It's always disappointing to read comments like 3monkeys. Do you prefer we all vote based on a 30 second tv commercial? I'd much rather have candidates document their views. I'd be happy just to have every citizen read these questions. Did you do so? How would you vote?

 

JHS - the elections don't work because we don't have a good choice. We are always forced to choose between a red and a blue poltician, one who has usually taken a truck load of money from special interest groups. I like the idea of having a citizen representative on the ballot who is not controlled by a party or in debt to special interest groups.

 

I am concerned the real problem in America is that too many people will write off what looks to be an excellent plan without really studying what it is.

 

Perhaps each of you will study the concept a little further and then come back with something more than your initial comment.

I happened to have read the entire questionnaire and the blog written by Tim Cox of Liberty Hill, Texas, the founder of GOOOH and I disagree with a lot of what he stands for, so it is with some consideration that I dismissed his idea behind GOOOH.

 

The GOOOH site is basically a pledging site for a third party and you join by paying and answering and pledging to the 100+ questions on how you will vote. These 100+ questions were hand picked by Tim Cox and no other inputs are possible. The plan is to have candidates be bound by the way they answered these 100+ questions and they should resign if they break their pledge to the way they answered these questions.

 

There is nothing wrong with supporting third party candidates. But somehow to suggest that GOOOH is something new and unique that requires special attention and reservation at the polls is ludicrous. To suggest that elections don't work because you can't get support for your third party candidate is kind of pathetic. If you can't make your case as a third party candidate and attract support, you don't deserve a place at the polls.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
