WTF

36 have been accused of spousal abuse

7 have been arrested for fraud

19 have been accused of writing bad checks

117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses

3 have done time for assault

71, repeat 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit

14 have been arrested on drug-related charges

8 have been arrested for shoplifting

21 currently are defendants in lawsuits

84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can you guess which organization this is?



Give up yet?

it's the 535 members of the United States Congress.
The same group of Idiots that crank out hundreds of
new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.
AND THEY JUST VOTED THEMSELVES $15,000
PER MONTH PENSION FOR LIFE AFTER
SERVING ONLY ONE TERM IN CONGRESS!!

This makes me wonder why I try?

Yeah...I'd like to see background checks, drug screens, credit reports, personal & professional reference lists & physical results in the newspaper for all politicians before they get elected. The parallel would be us attempting to get viable employment in corporate America & all such data being made available to prospective employers during our application process. Ha! Fortunately, I have a job, but they'd probably end up on dadgum welfare!
