This is from 535 members......of our United States congress.
The same group that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

There's a huge difference between letting them fry me up a burger and letting them make laws.

Mama, I hope you can explain that weird remark. Criminals should be allowed in Congress? What?

Not many food service employees have bankrupted any companies. Many can barely muster enough ambition to get out of their own way.

Okay: Minnow said these were food service workers and asked how many of us would like them serving us food. Hey, if they were working at Mickey D's let em serve it up. I feel differently knowing they are the ones in charge. However, looking at Minnow's list, I don't know that I would consider them criminals. People of poor character surely.

These are criminal acts that minnow had posted. Why would you think they wouldn't be?

The two things mentioned under "accused" shouldn't be taken into consideration. Being accused of something doesn't mean anything, unless it later ends in a conviction. Also, 84 are defendants in a lawsuits, until they are found guilty, or make a settlement, that doesn't matter either. As for all of the things they've been arrested for, well... I'd throw that out too, because being arrested without a guilty conviction is just another accusation.
