36. Yes yes yes
Some of them are awful so chuck the whole thing.

I don't get this thinking. Work with me here. Seeing John Conyers become Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee is:

a) A good thing;

b) A great thing;

c) So awesome I can't even think straight.

d) All of the above.

The answer is "d."

Unfortunately, we all don't live in Michigan, so we can't all vote directly for Mr. Conyers. We have to vote for whomever is in our district, and voting for whomever is in that district will help secure the majority, which will put Conyers in that chair. So, in effect, you are voting for Conyers no matter whom you vote for.

Oh, and there are 435 House members. If 218 of them are Democrats, we get Chairman Conyers, and we can bury the shitheads among the other 217.

This isn't rocket science, Guy. Blowing shit up is only good when it accomplishes something. Otherwise, you're just making a mess and getting people killed.
