      I'm sure you would have been at the front of the line to vote for him.

        So what? He already said it was going to be his last term. To my knowledge he's not involved in any scandals. What Congress could use is more people who have this sort of experience, instead of turning to the Knuckledragger Du Jour who probably ducked out of fighting when the shooting started like most conservatives do (Bush II, Cheney, McConnell, Romney, Boehner, etc etc etc).

          Got any aging out Dems you'd be all akimbo if they lost a primary to a young whippersnapper?

          Oh wait, Dems don't have contested primaries.

            This is such a silly line of thinking. We want experience yet we are flabbergasted that we vote people back in who have an approval rating lower than killer bees and Ebola.

                And what meaningful legislation has Hall authored in the past two years? What other contributions has he made? If he's just sitting on the payroll, who cares? His Congressional pension is probably asstastically well-paying as well.

                    And they don't have any members who ducked out when the shooting started.

                        Cable news rating are out and the funniest thing (well, aside from maybe CNN's rock bottom ratings until they can exploit another tragedy) is that the average age of a Fox viewer is pushing 70! Yikes. Pretty soon they're going to go from advertising prune juice and Depends to wills and cemetary plots.
