He's dumb, but he's not the only one. The whole damn Congress is filled with people who's only qualification for the job is that they look good on camera.

That's not the only qualification! They also need lots of blind party loyalty.

"qualification for the job is that they look good on camera."

The end result of giving women the vote. The "cute" candidates win. And government morphs into "Sugar Daddy".

Yeah, but the dumb ones are usually kept out of key committee jobs.

And it just underscores how unserious Democrats are about security. From among all of them, you'd think there'd be one who makes this one of a few specialties.

And many of them fail at that too.

If that were true, then Britany Spears would be head of the House Ways and Means Committee.

And I might add they can repeat the same trite soundbites over and over again. The "debates" between the candidates is always a laugher too. Just the same soundbits repackaged for the occasion.

Or they (or their parents/friends/etc.) have connections to people with lots of money.

Pretty pathetic that it's come down to how well you look on TV, or who you know (but then again, it's been about who you know since the beginning, and it's not just Congress but the White House as well).
