They're everywhere. A Rasmussen poll indicates that 57% of Americans would like to replace the entire U.S. Congress. Oregon's alleged "governor" is a jackass. Portland's alleged "mayor" is an admitted liar and a jackass. Portland city commissioner Leonard is a pushy, in-your-face jackass. And the rest of Portland city council may not be as pushy as Leonard, but they're still jackasses. Portland blogger and occasional "tax law perfesser" Jackass at least hasn't been elected to represent constituents, so of all the jackasses, he's at least got that going for him.
Folks vote jackasses into office, then complain. Why do they do that?
