So what? Let them demagogue. It is my patriotic duty to ensure that all elected officials always feel nervous and anxious about every little move they make. Bashing them is a form of patriotism. If it bothers them, don't apply for the job. Bashing them keeps them on their toes and uptight....the way it should be.
