OT: NSA story keeps getting bigger...

[Nathan England]

Yeah, and I hear that John McCain is so eager to listen to his constituents. Unless you 
have $500 bucks to go to dinner with him. And even then, you aren't allowed to ask 
questions.

Our congress is worthless. Contacting them won't do anything. They won't listen. 
Remember, they needed to pass Obamacare before they could tell us what was in it, 
and also, they said it was for our own good, even though the majority didn't want it.

Congress needs to be eliminated and replaced with statesmen. People like you and I 
who have regular jobs and can volunteer to make some important decisions. The 
problem with congress is it is a profession. It is a career, and it was never intended 
to be that way.
