5. My rep (Dallas) is Sam Johnson. He makes me ILL.

Looks like a sleezball, and IS a sleezball. Dressed in patriotism and honor, but in reality kisses Bush's butt like there's no tomorrow. I've called his office several times and they are not very nice, then they send me some dumb-ass worthless form letter that just restates their foul Repug garbage.

I LOATHE my Texas Rep, Sam Johnson.
