Re: "Hardly extreme. They are being paid by the people they elect."

Maybe I'm missing something. Didn't the vast majority of veterans living on Social Security contribute to the Social Security fund during their working years? In effect, aren't they tapping the money they "gave" to the government?

And you're saying these people should not be allowed to vote?!

What about the right-wing Texans who tossed out a highly qualified Republican Hispanic Texas Supreme Court judge in the primary last week because they voted for the guy with the Anglo last name? Should we disqualify these people from voting because they didn't take the time to familiarize themselves with the candidates?

Seems like you need to be focusing more on ignorant Republicans who get all their news from right-wing AM hate radio.
