Can you figure it out?



36
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 done time for assault


71,
repeat
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
currently
are defendants in lawsuits, and


84
have been arrested for drunk driving
in
the last year




Can
you guess which organization this is?




Give
up yet? . . . Scroll down,

























Neither,
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. :tu

Yeah, I've seen this before. I'd love to believe it, but you'd have to attach some names.

84 senators arrested for dwi's in the past year seems way too high.

It's Members of Congress, not just Senators.

So that would be out of 535, not 100.

Still I agree that's high (I hope).

That's what I meant to type. But yeah, still high. 15% of congress getting pinched in the past year doesn't sound right.

If it had said 84 DWI stops, I could believe it. Ted Kennedy could do that by himself.
