What a terrible group of guys

[bigsky]

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

29 have been accused of spousal abuse
7 have been arrested for fraud
19 have been accused of writing bad checks
117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
3 have done time for assault
71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
8 have been arrested for shoplifting
21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can you guess which organization this is?

Give up yet?



It's the 535 members of the United States Congress.

Source?

Snopes doesn't say it's true or false, but it looks weak.

Well, on one hand, they are all lawyers,...on the other hand,...uh...well...nevermind.  I guess it could be true.

With stats like that, both of Bush's daughters should be shoo-ins for Congress when they get old enough.

I'd like to believe it's true...That way I could be more justified in calling them the less than human worthless non-working overpaid greedy selfish scumbags that they are.

Surprises me too.
