Everyone is dissatisfied with Congress but everyone thinks their own Congressman and
Senator is different.
Let's sweep them all out and try new people. Could they do any worse?
Our campaign signs can be an old broom planted upside down in our front yards.
If we could vote again on Orin Hatch how do you think the election would result?
Sign me dissatisfied with the Repubicans
We need to clean house completely. If a few decent ones go as a part of it, so what? Everyone send them all back home to live in the country that they have given us.
The biggest problem with federal government, besides being run by special interests, is each representaive represents far too many people.
And therefore can not effectivly represent the people.
There should be atleast 10X the number representatives that there are in congress.
A number that has been limited only because of the size of the room they meet in. Great reason, Huh?
Hence very few effective representatives, and many that are behold to party politics and special interests.
So it is no wonder they get out of touch.
