She's been in Congress less than 4 months and already she's looked like an idiot at least a dozen times now.  

Must be a new record.  tongue

I was especially entertained when she was whining about how she couldnt find anywhere to live in DC because she couldnt afford it, at what, way north of $100k a year salary?? Take out a damn loan......Ohh wait her credit rating is tanked smile

It bothers me slot. 

An admin would have to change that if I am not mistaken.
