Article 1, Section 9, Constitution of the United States

If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

Two Vietnams: Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee

You can't make this up...this woman lived through this period she's talking about so ignorantly...yet hasn't a F%$&*%($ clue about what she's talking about (the phrase dumber than dog shit comes to mind). I genuinely hope that her constiuents will "retire" her this fall...if this is what many of our Congressmen and women are like, then our Republic has no future, because they damned sure know nothing about the past...
