I guess you think Gabby Giffords had it coming
That's what you get when the general public looks at Congress as the enemy. Would any of you care to name a country where the elected officials are better than ours?
it's difficult for people who hate their government to think highly of their elected officials. and if you hate your government, you don't vote for people who are intelligent and thoughtful, you vote for angry imbeciles who hate government as much as you do and want to "shut it down".
which, in turn, discourages the best of the best from seeking public service.
