I f*****g HATE when people use the word congresscritter. Critter is a euphemism for creature that has been used to mean a cute small animal. Calling a congressional representative a critter makes them seem cute like a mouse or squirrel or maybe harmless like an ant or a cockroach. A congressional representative can write laws and implement them and empower agencies to write and enforce regulations that cause extreme harm to ordinary people. They are far from being cute and harmless.
Congreessturd?
