“Just one more term, just one more.....”

the narcissism of socialism....maybe we’ll “get it right next time..”

Is our fault We the People continue to let it go on...the resulting human misery IS avoidable and preventable...its what the Constitution is about...empowering the “little people” so they did’nt have to live within the confines of the mini-mind of the local aristocrat.

I'd say they are all constipated. Put lots of Exlax in their food every time they attend meetings.

***We are farther from racial unity, not closer.***

Isn’t it interesting? Blacks and Whites had achieved a much closer relationship than any time since the Civil War. Thanks to the Republicans. UNTIL OBAMA WAS ELECTED.

Interesting read, but I don’t think it’s that complicated. I think the fact of the matter is that most present-day Democrats view themselves as royalty. For a “commoner” to question them is unthinkable and highly inappropriate, hence their angry replies.

What is it about being a liberal that seems to lead inexorably to despair in old age in the 21st century?

This seems the core question to the piece. The answer is, liberalism has been referred to as a mental disorder and that's not far off. Liberalism is built upon a faulty apprehension of the world as it really is coupled with a high level of willingness to ignore facts that would lead an ordinary person to slow up and question their premises. In short, liberalism is a mental illness, probably a form of dissociative disorder.

King ‘rat...(another condescending, elitist puke)...

(Wikipedia)

John David Dingell, Jr. (born July 8, 1926) is a Democratic United States Representative from Michigan and is currently the Dean of the U.S. House of Representatives. He is the longest currently-serving Congressman[1] and the third longest serving Congressman ever. Since 1955, he has represented a district that was first in western Detroit but has successively moved further into that city’s western suburbs, currently Michigan’s 15th congressional district. Dingell is the longest-serving member of the House in US history and is currently the longest-serving member of Congress. On February 20, 2010, Dingell announced that he would seek a 29th term in the November 2010 election[2] when he will be 84 years old.

None of them should ever be in congress long enough to become well known. Serve a couple of terms at each level, then back to the real world. TERM LIMITS!

They are so old because they have been in office for decades.
