The height of hypocrisy...
I was wondering how some politicians keep getting re-elected and end up making a lifetime career of mis-representing us.   Then it finally "dawned" on me...........no one remembers (or cares) how bad they were as little as last week.
Take Dianne Feinstein for example.   Of course, I'm going to use a California Democratic to get my point across.   This evil woman has been in office since 1992 (that's over 20 years) and continues to be a U.S. Senator despite her lousy voting record.
Just look at her total support of the NSA spying on citizens.   She was extremely happy to see the government invade our privacy and violate our Constitution.   However, once she found out that the CIA was spying on her and other Senators and Representatives, she went berserk.   Her point of view is that it's alright to spy on everybody except for her.
By the time that elections come around again, all will be forgotten and the California lemmings will vote for her again.   When they ask, "What's happened to our freedoms?"   I just say, "You gave them away because you didn't care..."
And this is just one example of how our members of Congress do not have the best interests of the United States in mind.   Most go to Washington to "cut deals" and become wealthy at your expense.
