Congress Is Less Popular than Cockroaches, Lice, Root Canals, Colonoscopies, Traffic Jams, Used Car Salesmen or Genghis Khan

We’ve previously noted that Congress is less popular among Americans than Communism, BP during the Gulf oil spill, Nixon during Watergate or King George during the American Revolution.

Public Policy Polling has a new poll out showing that Congress is less popular than:

  • Cockroaches
  • Lice
  • Root Canals
  • Colonoscopies
  • Traffic Jams
  • Used Car Salesmen
  • or Genghis Khan

The poll did not examine whether – as in China – politicians are viewed as less trustworthy than prostitutes.   But given that regulators sleep with industry-bought prostitutes, it is hard to tell where one ends and the other starts.

Postscript:  Obviously, my comparison of politicians with prostitutes is not factually correct, is over-the-top, unfair and offensive.  We extend a sincere apology … to the “professional” women.

Politicians are not prostitutes … they are in fact pimps.

At least with a colonoscopy they put you under. With Congress we get it up the wazoo

without the benefit of anesthetics.

As bad Congress is - Obama is worse.   There are a few exceptions where the mullah is equally bad as Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank, Kerry, McCain, Boxer, Feinstein, Murray, Waters and about a dozen more.

Each congress and president is worse then the previous, because they have to double-down on the debt in order to keep the Ponzi 'skimming off the procuders' Scheme going, and do it within a shorter and shorter time frame.

Remember the Alamo!
Remember Goliad!

If the killing of randy weaver's wife caused such blowback imagine what a seige of patriot citizens would do?

The empire is stupid enough to radicalize and energize the opposition.

The first patriots to die as a group will have statues in their honor. They will energize and inspire others to action.

In Tunisia it took but one man to start the arab spring.
