He was hell on the IRS. I bet they’re digging for something to arrest him for right now. The IRS will never let him back into Congress.

Yeah! Keep Congress weird.
I just want to know what will happen if that gray tabby on his head doesn't agree with his vote.

The IRS is looking to stock up on shotguns.
One way to prepare for his return.

I can already hear him after hours on C-Span giving his one minute sessions. The only thing that would be better would be if B-1 Bob Dornan runs in Orange County and wins again. Life would be fun.

Do you really think that this country has time to elect a fool just so you can get a few laughs? I think the situation is much more serious than that.

I wonder if he has a campaign fund, I would like to donate some money to it. We need people like him to add comic value to Congress but also to make them feel uncomfortable.
To: gdzla
I hope he changes his anti-Israel position.
