Congyers announced today that he is retiring and will not seek re-election.  He is endorsing his son to replace him.... LOL

Just goes to show you how screwed up our political system is - where people in their late 80s and 90s get re-elected to office.  They can't stand to be away from the perks, the soundbites and the general ass-kissing that goes along with being a member of Congress.  But really, at that age, how effective are they?  We get the respresentation we deserve when we continually vote these people in.
