Tea Party Congressman complains that his $600,000 net income isn't enough and that it costs $200,000 "just to feed his family" each year.
No wonder people like this have no understanding and no sympathy at all for those who are unemployed or lack health insurance. I'm 61 years old, have two advanced degrees, and have worked full time in advanced technical and educational fields for 39 years now. Never once in all that time have I even made a gross annual income in the six figure range. Of course, I have some ethics that you tea party guys lack. I won't steal from people in order to get more for myself, for instance, the way bankers and politicians have been doing for years now.
So, Congressman John Fleming (R-LA,) don't expect me to break out my violin for you. That is, unless you expect me to break it over your head, which is clearly full of rocks so you won't feel it anyway, and run you through with the bow. It is vampires like you who have created this miserable economic situation. You'll get no sympathy from me, and if your constituents have even half a brain, you won't be re-elected either.
Listen up, folks. Voting for these people is not doing you any good and will do you even more harm in the long run. They do NOT care about you. All they care about is their own greed. Quit electing millionaires to office, will you? It's as if the chickens voted for Col. Sanders, it really is.
