Former lawmaker dying of cancer says Senate full of ‘blowhards’ when it should be greatest deliberative body
Sasse, battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer, says both parties rely on amplifying fringe voices rather than solving problems
To put it in layman’s terms, they’re all full of shit. All talk and no action. The biggest thing they are concerned about is how they can feather their own nests and enrich their coffers.
95% of them are nothing but parasitic leeches sucking the blood dry from the government. Maybe 98.
They are living proof that there is no honor among thieves.
I still believe that they should be paid on an incentive program, the harder they work, the more they get paid.
One thing that resonates in my mind the most is the lack of concern the politicians have for the people who put them in office. Whenever the government shuts down, they have voted in that their page checks do not stop.

Yes, members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate continue to receive their pay during a government shutdown.
While hundreds of thousands of federal employees may be furloughed or forced to work without pay, congressional salaries are protected by the Constitution and funded through permanent appropriations.
So you tell me if they give a fuck about the people who put them in office.
