The Occupy Movement is my nomination. Bunch of fools who got absolutely nothing done but causing a mess and giving cops massive OT! Oh but tens of thousands left their bank and went to credit unions. That has caused havoc on the banking industry!

Waiting for an Occupy candidate. Someone who lives in a park and has exhausted his ten years of unemployment.

Runners Up include Solyndra, GM, the USPO (making it for the 20th consecutive year), SSI and Public Unions especially the teachers' unions who believe less school hours, more pay, and nutrition are the keys to learning. :zz:

Agree. Hands down winner of FUBAR = Congress. The Senate does little good, but the House is filled with crackpot incompetent crazies.

Crackpot, incompetent crazies who never get voted out because they gerrymander their districts, and there are no TERM LIMITS!!!

that's true...because some people vote the party, not the person.


they have to redraw districts when there is a new census...the county quorum court here managed to re-draw all the lines, yet somehow managed to keep every incumbent in a district. that way no incumbent has to run against a fellow court member. absolutely fascinating.

Look up gerrymandering on-line, and you get directed to our fair state. Take a look at this district, if you can stomach it:

"Florida's 23rd Congressional district was featured in a Slate publication titled, 'The Most Gerrymandered Congressional Districts.' There were 20 districts featured from across the country."
