Kevin Brady is my congressman and is mild mannered outwardly all the time. He doesn't seem to want to rock the boat and not much is heard from him. Even when he said, “Is this still America?”, his tone and manner was still soft, not forceful.

A funny about Brady: He came to the county I was in at that time, for a parade, and my husband was the County Chair. This was the Christmas Parade. We had our people all lined up in various cars/trucks. Brady was there in his convertible so he was sitting up on the top of the back seat along with someone else.

The wife of our district attorney was going to drive his convertible with the two guys on it. I was standing by the car as the DA’s wife started the car. She began to move the car forward and at the same time reached down to pull the front seat closer to the steering wheel. It is natural to pull up on the steering wheel when you are moving the seat forward.

THE STEERING WHEEL CAME OFF IN HER HANDS. The car was moving forward and she was holding the steering wheel in the air, not connected to the car. She was so startled, she slammed on the brakes. That jerk threw Brady and the other guy off balance and they were struggling not to fall off the car and hit the street.

Brady's comment after he recovered his balance was, “Yeah, I need to get that fixed.” He KNEW the steering wheel was just sitting on there, not fastened down. Unbelievable.

The steering wheel was set back where it belongs, still not really attached, and off the car went in the parade.

The moral of this story is, when you drive someone’s car, don't assume the steering wheel is permanently attached to the car.

What a story, Marcella!

That’s incredible.

I thought the moral was going to be: “When you vote for a congressman don’t assume he has a brain.”

lol!

This is not a funny thread; however, your post brought this to mind:

The moral of the story is that Kevin Brady has a record of being half-assed. Read his bio on Wikipedia. Not very impressive.

He only comes alive when it is time to raise money or have an election.
