You lost me with your opening line.

They are NOT public servants anymore. WAKE UP!

Anyone not a millionaire when elected is a millionaire once elected. It is the best get-rich-quick scheme in America today and the gift that keeps on giving long after service has ended.

That’s why no real conservative would ever spend his/her life on the tax-payer teet....

You know who does? People who can’t make as much doing anything else...

WAKE UP and join me in the 21st century. Those public servant days ended when they stopped serving us and got rich serving themselves.

PLEASE....

What you are saying is one of the main reasons I like Thompson. He ran (Senate) on a term limit platform, promising to serve only two terms, and he kept that promise.

You have an extremely cynical attitute about your elected representatives. It’s true that there are quite a few corrupt politicians. However, there are still some that are genuine public servants. The politicians who want to get rich leave congress and start earning the big bucks lobbying there former colleages. Duncan Hunter did not do this. Instead, he has quietly worked for years fighting for the issues that matter. So, unless you have specific allegations don’t criticise his years of dedicated service to this country.
