It was??? I must have missed that era.
For as long as I can remember, all parties have only been out for themselves (screw the rest). Of course, that's why the Repub's "commend" these pervs. Perish the thought that they loose ground (voting ability in Washington) by taking a stand against perverts. Money and power take precedence over morals. If anyone in Washington ever had a pair, they were clipped off years ago. But then again, if that were true, why are they still such pervs?
=======================================================================
MY opinion - they ALL should be fired (no exceptions) and their positions be made a 100% non-paid/no gratuity position (or at most no more than minimum wage). Then maybe they'll finally work for the people... and not themselves. No more of this fat-cat, above the law, old, white has-beens who seem to think they're still in the 19th century (not the 21st) that we have now. Seriously?? they can vote themselves a raise? (especially when they're non-deserving) Free medical care for life? (top of the line, not the medicare crap they try to push on the rest of the country) 6-figure salaries? (not including "payola)" Damn! I can't even find a job and these do-nothings are getting more money in a year than I'll ever see in a lifetime.
