Great bunch of folks.

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

* 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
* 3 have actually done time for assault
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can you guess which organization this is?




Give up yet?





It's the 535 members of the United States Congress.
The same group of idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

Honest to God...that would've been my answer.The only differnce was I'd said the Gov't in a general term.


Not suprised one bit[:'(]

We are a gov't of, by, and for the people. Can you get any group of 500 Americans together without gathering similar statistics?

Note the words accused and arrested for, but not tried or convicted for.

Non of those things apply to me, except one. I have bounced a check before. It was quite by accident, and I paid a fee.

How many people on this forum can say non of those thing listed are not in their backgrounds?

This has been around for years in one form or another and in as much as it pretty much confirms my suspicion that many of those in public office are low lives, it is in fact an internet hoax.
