Sadly, the people who voted them in are even dumber. I would love to see that all voters must pass a current events test before being allowed to vote. Yeah, I know it could never happen, especially when some dead people still vote. (In Lake County, IN, some dead people voted twice!)

Who would write the test? Remember the poll that came out a few weeks ago where FNC voters were determined to be grossly misinformed. I think the test would be similar.

If I had my druthers, only tax-paying property owners would be allowed to vote.

But I'm a political fossil.

We can only vote for those who offer themselves for office, those who run. The Left, employing the politics of personal destruction through the media, make it harder for us to have good conservative candidates. If a conservative can be shown that he cheated on his wife thirty years ago we bounce them. Liberals can run prostitution rings out of their apartments, Barney Frank, lockup rent controlled apartments for their own use, Charlie Rangel, and be rapists, Bill Clinton, and the media and the Liberals ignore it as long as they can get elected.

The Democrats who don't pay their taxes are too numerous to list but if a conservative makes an honest mistake the Liberals and the media demand his head. We have a much longer row to hoe than the Liberals.
