4. Congress-bashing isn't productive. Now if this was...

...postcards from the Rape-Publican Congress' vacation, that'd make sense. But when we bash Congress in general as dysfunctional, we damage the good, effective Congresspeople along with the corrupt ones.

NGU.

5. Don't complain about the people in a town with ebola?

Applaud those who aren't infected yet?

Slight problem with that.

8. "Effective" congresscritters?

Where? Where?
Surely you meant to say "Affected", perhaps?

11. Jeez, grow a sense of irony.

The postcard that reads "Vacations are great, huh? Oh, right. You don't gt any vacation time. Keep that productivity up!" says it all.

Personally, I think it's time to repeal some of Congress's benefits - like vacation time - since their overall productivity SUCKS. That's across the board. We really don't have many Democrats working on behalf of us little people.
