I think we need to do away with politicians and get another class of people to be our decision-making delegates. Maybe robots would do the job better.

There is just something about those who are in politics that drives them to do embarrassing stuff almost daily.

The funny thing about Lee's departure is that New York State is losing a Congressional seat in the next congress, and Lee's little stunt pretty much guarantees that his former seat will be the one eliminated. So whoever wins the special election will likely have to face an incumbent after redistricting in 2012 to keep their job, anyway, and likely have to appeal to voters who weren't in their district when they got elected in the first place. Who would want that gig?

You know, Dork., something happened a long time ago in Western New York, and people might not want to talk about it. Western New Yorkers were originally under the heel of the French. You know, Napolean the Third or whatever. And they got together and swore a pact with the devil. They said, "we will serve you if you will get us free from the French." True story.
And so, the devil said, "okay, it's a deal." Ever since they have been cursed by one thing or another. Desperately poor. Horrible football teams. Pervy legislators who aren't even very attractive. It’s cut down the middle. On the one side you have people who are so iced-over and frostbitten that they couldn't even leave the state if they tried, and on the other side you have people who have fled the state so fast you can barely get them out of their tickle session in City Hall before they say "witness protection program." Same state.
They need to have, and we need to pray for them, a great turning to the Temple of Craig. And out of this tragedy I’m optimistic something good may come. But right now, we’re helping the suffering people and the suffering is unimaginable.

He caved too quickly (for a politician). He's hiding something else.
