Last Remaining Politician Must Rebuild Entire Government Following Bloodiest Midterm Election In American History

WASHINGTON—In the wake of what is being called the deadliest midterm election in the nation's history, Washington's sole surviving politician, Rep. Peter DeFazio of Oregon's 4th Congressional District, emerged from the rubble of the Capitol building Wednesday to announce his intention to rebuild the fallen U.S. government.

The events of Tuesday night—which included live televised images of Sen. Harry Reid taking a gavel to the head of Sen. Mitch McConnell while Rep. Barney Frank repeatedly smashed the face of Undersecretary for Food Safety Elisabeth Hagen against a marble column—left most Americans believing their entire government had perished in the post-election bloodbath. But the miraculous survival of DeFazio points to a possible way forward.

After fashioning a splint for his broken leg and treating himself for superficial head wounds, a shaken DeFazio addressed the nation Wednesday.

2. I can here the echos of Tina Turner yelling that they will rebuild over barter town.
To the children on their way home, keep a light on for the soldiers on the road, there still work to be done.

3. If violence did break out
the republicans would be hiding behind their followers, because thats just the kind of stand up people they are.
