This U.S. Congress has the lowest approval rating on record; nevertheless, both guys who won their parties nomination were members of this disgraceful assembly.

The United States is a country so starved for an ounce integrity and vision that its citizens have stampeded like a frightened herd of cattle in a hail storm to the words of a junior senator who, at best, has done the minimum of what should be expected of one in that position. Yet, because of the incomprehensible lack of leadership of his colleagues, he appears like an oasis in the middle of the Sahara.
