"Congress" it doesn't really say true or false, just gives many different ways to view the opinion. I prefer to go with it as you posted it.... :lmao:

The first thing that popped into my mind was John Glenn, the fine upstanding citizen and long time Democratic Senator from Ohio and national hero. He stiffed a small printing company for a huge order of campaign posters and printed material when he pulled out of the race. The small business went belly up and he never lifted a finger.

Ted Kennedy actually killed someone and lets not even talk about Barney Frank and his page pumping escapades.

Kennedy was one that complained that the prisioners at G'Tmo where being miss treated....Rush Limbaugh said.."Hey Ted, more people died at Chappaquiddick than at Guantanamo Bay!"

Barney Frank on the phone to his "life-partner": "I'll be home in a couple of hours sweetie. I've just got two more pages to do."

That one's been around a while (like more than a couple of years). True or not, it's NOT IN THE LEAST SURPRISING. That ought to be scary all in itself.

Not quite true... http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/outrage/congress.htm

If you'll notice, Snopes did not say the claims were not true. The article said they didn't agree with the "journalistic standards" of Capitol Hill Blue and that the claims were hard to match or dismissed not being able to get a credit card as "one missed payment can ruin your credit".

The fact is if these people cannot handle their own personal finances, then why do we trust them with trillions of dollars of OUR money?
