When You Elect Stupid Congresspeople This is What You Get [View all]

I've watched in horror as some of the country, you know who you are, have started to elect ignorant, ill informed Congressmen and women. Here in Oklahoma it is a given, look at James Langford, what an idiot. With gerrymandering he will be in that seat until he dies or gets indicted for something, that might ,not even do it.

Michele Bauchman had a serious challenge but survived with the help of club for growth and others. The power people need to have these types in office, they are easily manipulated as are the people they represent.

I vote, but I do not know why, no matter who I vote for down here the Republican wins. And before someone asks, yes, I have tried to help my party, calling people, volunteering to stuff envelopes, walk my neighborhood and others, write letters to the editor of our right wing newspaper. It doesn't matter....

Sometimes I believe we are doomed.....
