Lesson 6 Comprehensive

Sung to the tune of “Walking on Sunshine”

I used to think maybe you’d hear me

Now I know that it’s true-uuu

Because I just sent you an email

 And I voted for you-uuu

Now every time I see you on TV

Gotta stop what I’m doin’

Because I just can’t get what you’re up to

But I gotta trust you-uuu

Now I’m thumping on Congress!

YEAH!

Now I’m thumping on Congress!

YEAH!

AND DON’T IT FEEL GOOD!  YEAH!  ALL RIGHT NOW!

I used to think I could ignore you

Now I know that ain’t true-uuuu

Because I gotta duty to hold you

Accountable – clear view!

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Shoulder the load of my country

You’re busy I know-www

Responsible to me and others

I gotta know what you do-ooo

In summary, I know that every citizen in the US has a right to know what their legislators are doing.  I also understand that it’s sometimes all we can do as individuals to make it through a day, a week or a month just keeping up with our personal lives.  I’m glad for this section of this class as I’ve sent the Frontline video to others and I’m saving the contact sites for my Congressional representatives plus the Thomas website (extremely interesting!).  Looks like what we don’t know is somewhat more important than what we DO know!
