Two are from Texas - one is that nut from down in the Houston area who makes a living inviting herself to and crying on the national celebrity funeral circuit at taxpayers expense, and the other is the Rep from South Dallas who was called out for unethically awarding scholarships to family members but was reelected because her opponent was even flakier and really scared voters when he came out and said that the violent overthrow of the government is a valid option.
Is this a great country or what.

The one from AZ is no surprise either... the "honorable" Raul Grijalva from CD7, which was created in 2002, has 50% Hispanics, of which he has been the only Representative, and he was won by about 60%+ each time.
This time... he sqeaks by with 48% to a Tea Party candidate - Ruth McClung ( 28 year old scientist who works for Raytheon in her first bid for office...and if you look up "unknown" in the dictionary, you find her picture there) who garnered almost 46%.
About 3,600 votes separated them - and two candidates, a Libertarian and Independent, got about 7,300 between them.
I bet he regrets his boycott call after SB 1070... but doubt he learned anything. To hear him speak is painful. If you look up "dolt" in the dictionary, you find HIS picture there.

Well, Ruth's employer gave $32,000 to her opponent. OpenSecrets

Nor are, as mentioned earlier, the Texas members.
The one in Houston is a special type of nutcase and megalomaniac.

That list is so funny. Must have been compiled by the editor of Mad Magazine.

The only surprise was that the number was not higher:
(mis)Rep. Donna F. Edwards (MD-04)
(dis)Hon. Elijah Cummings (MD-07)
As expected, representatives from the liberal bastions...

Yeah, it’s easier to count the ones who aren’t from California.
This explains much.
