6. i noticed that Barton's district is oddly shaped

it is mostly rural areas south of Dallas on I-45, but it juts up into a heavily populated suburb called Arlington. I believe Tom DeLay is to blame and is also to blame for their only being one democratic seat in the DFW Metroplex.

10. Look at C.W. "Bill" motherfucking Young's district in Florida

if you want to see real gerrymandering. Hint: no hispanics, blacks or poor whites.

14. 15 paddles. Wait when did Congress become Catholic school?

I don't think being a dumbass is against any rules. Hopefully voters will punish him in November, but I kind of doubt it.

15. Joe Barton's punishment is that he has to spend the rest of his life

being Joe Barton.
