Why Run For Congress? : Why Not! No Responsibilities!

Time again to ask important questions of our leaders and their leadership skills. ''What have you accomplished in your term and how has it benefited me, the state and the country!?''

I Am Your Congressman! I Want Your Vote for Reelection!

I have enjoyed working here these past several years. You have paid me very well and given me benefits beyond belief. I have 3 to 4 months off per year, and a pension plan that will pay my salary till the day I die and then pay my estate one year's salary death bonus and then continue to pay my spouse my salary with increases until she or he dies along with a health plan that most people can only dream of having.

Despite this, I plan to take the next 12 to 18 months to find a new position. During this time, I will show up for work when it is convenient for me. In addition, I fully expect to draw my full salary and all the other perks associated with my current job. Oh yes, if my search for this new job proves fruitless, I will be coming back with no loss in pay or status. 

Before you say anything, remember that you have no choice in this matter. I can, and I will do this.

Sincerely,

Every Member of Congress running for Re-Election
