Poor, Overpaid Politician


Things are soooooooooo tough for some Republicans members of the House of Representatives. They have a short work week, spend weekend hobnobbing with wealthy donors, and take long vacations recesses.  You just feel their pain.

Talking Points Memo:

Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-GA), who's running for Senate in Georgia, complained that while his staff can jump to K Street and make $500,000 a year by lobbying, he's "stuck" in Congress making a bare $172,000 a year.
The comments, relayed by congressional aides to National Review, came during a closed door meeting among Congressional Republicans on Obamacare....

...."Meanwhile I'm stuck here making $172,000 a year," he added.....

Poor Phil Gingrey is scraping by on a mere $172,000 per year!!!!!  Cry me a river!!!!  It is apparent that Gingrey needs to go to the private sector and get a real job.  The good people in Georgia need to send Gingrey out of Congress and out to the unemployment line.
