Help Wanted: New Congressmen

It seems that some Congressmen still aren't getting the message that people are fed up with government waste, fraud and abuse.

10 members of Congress decided that, in the middle of one of the most contentious public debates in years, they should skip town with their spouses to go on a "global warming fact finding mission" rather than go home and meet with their constituents.

1) If you still believe that man-made global warming is anything other than Leftist snake oil, you have no business representing anyone in Congress.
2) If you believe that the taxpayers should be footing the bill to drag your husband/wife along on a "fact-finding mission," you have no business representing anyone in Congress.
3) If you believe you need to spend half-a-million taxpayer dollars for a glorified sight-seeing tour, you have no business representing anyone in Congress.

Perhaps I'm too idealistic in thinking that we should expect our public servants to be wise stewards of our money, but idealistic or not it doesn't mean that I'm wrong. Just keep this trip in mind when you go to the polls next year to decide who should - and should not - be left in charge of representing you.
