Birds of a feather…

With an approval rating just shy of 27%, it’s hard to believe there’s not a viable candidate out there running against Congressman David Cicilline, (D) Rhode Island. I mean what does it say about the “Ocean State” when a man with a track record like this guy has a seat at the national table uncontested?

Now I heard he intends to plaster his office door in Washington with the faces of those who’ve lost their extended unemployment benefits, undoubtedly in an attempt to shame Republicans into voting for yet another extension. My question to this political charlatan would be a simple one. What the heck have you done since being elected, to address the larger issue of actually putting Rhode Islanders back to work!? To borrow a line from the movie (Animal House), the answer would be, “0.0”…

You see Rhode Island is truly unique. Not only do they elect candidates with obviously pathetic and shameful records, and on the ever-expanding promise of more free stuff, but then they re-elect them time and again in spite of the fact they do absolutely nothing of “We the People’s” business. I suppose that in the end, Rhode Islanders get the representation they deserve…
