You don't have to be a registered voter to sign the petition. Just a grumpy busybody. If you can pass this website around to your grumpy friends, that would be great.

Congressional Term Limits

Are you sick and tired of the self serving politicians in Washington?

America has become plagued with a class of career politicians who care more about lining their own pockets than they do about living within our means or protecting the constitution.

You can help bring an end to career politicians.

Fill out the online petition below and your name will be included with a group of like minded individuals who are telling Congress:
Politicians care more about their careers than the people who elect them.
Arrogance, pandering and corruption are natural products on an entrenched political class.
Citizens deserve regular, competitive elections and more opportunities to run for office.
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives should serve no more than three terms.

It is time for American citizens to stand up for the voters and against entrenched and corrupt politicians.

Won't you help us bring fight to the tired old system, by signing the online petition below?

No, I won't sign this petition. I strongly oppose term limits for Congress.

Wouldn't voting them out of office be a better way to get rid of a 'career politician' then signing a petition?

That's conservative activism for you!

A real freedom fighter would do it the constitutional way!

We have term limits. They're called elections.

Besides, online petitions are useless.

SCOTUS ruled in unconstitutional so you need a constitutional amendment. Good luck.

Notice how the media only supports term limits when the Democrats control Congress.

More proof the media is all a bunch of barking hellhounds. John Edwards wasn't right to have an affair, but he was right to lie to the media about it.

I'm not "the media", and I've supported term limits when there was a republican congress.
