On this day in 1951, The 22nd Amendment went into effect. Is it time for an additional amendment to limit terms to the rest of our elected officials?

Absolutely positively yes. The framers never intended for congress to be a permanent career, a wealthy lifestyle, a career of never-ending campaigning and graft-seeking behavior. They have become the House of Lords, doling out "their" largess when it suits them and forgetting for whom they work. We deserve better than career politicians. I don't care about their supposed experience...it is the wrong kind. Term limits now!

SFC Sczymanski James L. - I agree with what You said and i never used to be for term limit either but these people have got out on control and too comfortable and self serving. Amazing how many also were not millionaires until they became members of congress. That didn't happen on their Federal pay alone !

Absolutely. These career politicians are a major part of what is wrong in Washington. The idea that that crowd is there to represent anyone but themselves, their party, and those that line their pockets is laughable.
