When you become a Senator of this great nation, you take an oath of office:

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

Now, I could raise all sorts of issues regarding the many Senators we have had that have knowingly torn various parts of the Constitution out of either disregard, or simple hate. However, that isn’t the issue I want to bring about today. Now, you’d think in an office of such honor, the Pledge of Allegiance would be a joyous moment for you every day in office. To be able to serve such a great nation, and to be in such a place of power would be humbling and amazing at the same time. It seems though, that these people think far more of their personal agenda than they do this nation.

How is this acceptable? How is this in anyway permissible? Whoever you are, liberal, conservative, crazy, Christian, Muslim, etc… Doesn’t such outright disregard and the childish behavior it obviously comes from disgust you?

And yet these people are still in office?!
