When I see posts like these, I know they are referring to my legislator, not theirs.
The country is being destroyed from within by a crazy handful of "Freshmen" legislators. Thanks, but when serious issues arise, I like having people with experience around.
I have no dog in this hunt, but my understanding of American politics is that the Founding Fathers meant political positions to be TEMPORARY, i.e. if you have the calling for improving and the devotion to do so, run for election, get elected, do your stuff and then, mission accomplished, go back to whatever you were doing before the election.
The Founding Fathers never meant politics to be a life-long occupation, because they realized that when a person has no loyalty to his family, to his roots, to his occupation, then politics is the best place to be a life-long free-loader.
If George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, etc. saw the current crop of politicians, they would be weeping and rolling in their grave. Especially, seeing that a petulant bully shut down their memorials to the public.
What America needs is more honest, eager and HARDWORKING 'freshman legislators' instead of mouldy, long-past-before-their-time, incompetent fossils, like Mitch McConnell, Harry Reid, Charlie Rangel, brothers Michigan Senator and Congressmen, Sheila Jackson Lee, Nancy Pelosi, John McCain, etc. etc. etc. whose "Best Before" stamp on their forehead reads 1957.
