Congress of whores gets it about right...there being a very few who are not. Even more amazing to me it that the People keep electing [and worse, re-electing!] these trollops, and don't push for honest representatives. It is a very sad system of non-representation of the People and 'representation' of the highest payers to their pockets. And we look down our noses at countries in Africa and Asia, et al. with corrupt tinpot despots running the country for themselves, when we have the same going on in D.C.....
