This should help in that election campaign

First of all, it is a marvel that Phil Gengry of Georgia HAS employment, let alone this:

Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-GA), who's running for Senate in Georgia, complained that while his staff can jump to K Street and make $500,000 a year by lobbying, he's "stuck" in Congress making a bare $172,000 a year.

The comments, relayed by congressional aides to National Review, came during a closed door meeting among Congressional Republicans on Obamacare.

Hey, I encourage Mr. Gingrey to just fucking quit if he's unhappy with his prospects as a Congressional looney.

But, then, that would be my advice to him no matter his future prospects.

if I ran the world, Id make the rule be that politicians salaries had to exactly equal the average salary drawn by the citizenry... ditto with their health care and their pensions.

that would help eliminate selfish whores like Mr. Gingrey form polluting the political system.

Gingrey is another one of those Republican/Teabagger doctors in Congress who has probably killed more people with his moralizing than he ever saved with medicine.
