"Head-shaking depression" is just what I felt reading that garbage. Frankly, I wouldn't mind if the identities (and proclivities) of these staffers were exposed. Something needs to be done to clean up and clean out Washington.
I couldn't agree with you more.
The government sucks, and people who work for the government seem more concerned with getting their rocks off than they do with serving their constituents. I wonder if there's any connection there? Gee, I wonder . . .
I guess, though, the people who're drawn to DC in the first place are largely of this ilk. I went to school at a small little boat college near DC, and as Georgetown was our weekend stomping grounds, I've seen my fill of these people. We're screwed both ways: the people who yearn to get to the power center are largely scumbags, while the non-scumbags are elsewhere busy working, creating wealth.
