The first job of every elected person is to get re-elected. Where have you been?
Yeah, yeah, I understand that. Just wondering why we bother electing people only to re-elect them...
That, and the 'popular' candidates are paving the road for any doorknob that runs under the same R or D as them. Supporting and validating the likes of Todd Akin in Missouri....
We, as tax payers, should quit paying their salaries altogether, make them pay a lease on their offices in the capitol, and continue on their merry way of doing nothing but begging for money.
If they repealed one useless or antiquated or conflicting law per work day it would take something like 150 years to get back to the constitution.
So....don't do anything???
Just say we like it the way it is and let it be?
Look, they work 1/3 of the year, spend the majority of that time fundraising, and get nothing done.
Why are we electing them and paying them?
