24. Have you read "Profiles in Courage" by JFK?
Edited on Tue Mar-18-08 02:41 PM by MartyL
My gawd that book makes me cry! How far we have fallen...our congressmen were an entirely different breed, actually noble public servants for the most part.

Back in the day, the People would not have allowed this to continue. If a Congressperson was this corrupt they would have confronted them and beat the crap out of them. Maybe a little fear was a good thing. Now they shit in our faces and expect us to like it.
