There's a lot of support for this opinion over here too. I guess we ought to just include that in the job description:

WANTED: Decider, with colleagues, of funding and public policy issues. Length of contract varies by location. Duties include: constant fund-raising for reelection; intense scrutiny of past and present public and personal life, and that of family members; tolerance of personal assault and minor batteries. Perquisites include: free transport, free insurance, bribery, graft, and attendant personal compensation - provided such bennies are never disclosed publicly.

No wonder we get crap representation; what kinda fool applies for such a job?
