It's prompting some watchdogs to call for more policing of state lawmakers, who appear more likely than members of the general population to be criminals or at least to be caught.

Welcome to the third world. If the current crop of Democrats ran America for 100 years we'd be Mexico. A nation in economic misery run by a group of corrupt, thieving, bureaucrats.

Notice that one is running for higher office, Congress, in spite of being convicted.

100 years?... You're too optimistic. Try thirty years, tops. It is the party of lies, demonic service to degeneracy, and selfish corruption. What's so damn frightening is 50% of the voting population votes for these criminal bastards.

I think our founding fathers set this up so well and the core of America is so strong that it would take them 100 years to wipe away the base of our county. But I think the clock is running and probably has been running since the 60's.

That's what great about the media - if it's not posted it might as well be because we all know that there are no Republicans in that group. Frankly I'm surprised they ran pictures.

That said, I agree with you!
