So noxious gas can come out of a Congressman's mouth all day long and nobody pays attention, but let him fart once and it's newsworthy?

at least we know it is noxious gas.. instead of having to guess.

I want to know now many congresspeople are going to be out of a job next election

Wow. I'm just surprised it actually made a sound. His hooker/pimp boyfriend must be asian. @914dan, pretty good actually. I'm 100% vested in High Country Framing, Inc., whose sales are up 23% over last year when they killed all their competition.

i thought that was just what Congressman Frank sounds like when he's talking? what comes out the front is no better than what comes out the back...

Not enough, that's why we need term limits.

The problem with putting the existing ones out of a job is that we are just forced to hire another one. Surely there's got to be a better way...

How can you tell if a politician is lying? Their mouth is open.

Yesterday my co-workers and I decided on a fire all incumbents movement. Nothing ever changes because for the most part, people think gov't does a lousy job in general, yet these same people keep voting the same people back into office. "Oh, my rep/senator couldn't possibly be the problem, right? It must be that other guy."

Congress should not be a career. 14 current members of the house and senate have been there over 36 years--they're not there to help constituents; they're there for the paycheck. John Dingell has been in office 55 years--and look at all his experience has done for the Michigan economy. But this isn't a partisan thing. I want them all to go.

Fire. Them. All.
