Dont know how true this is but thought I would share it


Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:


29 have been accused of spousal abuse

7 have been arrested for fraud

19 have been accused of writing bad checks

117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses

3 have done time for assault

71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit

14 have been arrested on drug-related charges

8 have been arrested for shoplifting

21 are currently defendants in lawsuits

84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can you guess which organization this is? Give up yet?

It's the 535 members of the United States Congress... the same group of IDIOTS that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line!

I've been telling you we must get rid of Republicans in Congress before they give it a bad name.

Sorry, but you're about 20 years too late.

Hey, that's not fair. He and Kennedy only account for 80% of those crimes.

The only that seems out of whack with the way we are is the HIGH rate of drunk driving! Shane - IYO what proportion of cops would let legislators slide?
