For doctor, the Senate is a bitter pill

Full story: The Washington Post

Tom Coburn is a Southern Baptist deacon, a family man married to a former Miss Oklahoma, a white-coated physician back in Muskogee who has delivered more than 4,000 babies and sees patients free of charge every Monday. But there's a darker side of the story, something that Coburn, a Marcus Welby type in ostrich-skin boots, confesses is his less honorable side. He's a member of the United States Senate. 'I would fire us all,' Coburn says, blasting Congress, as he does every chance he gets, as a place populated by people who don't do a whole lot to make the country a better place.

Broken Arrow, OK

The fact is that I myself have become so jaded that ALL politicians are not to be trusted. Senator Coburn may be a fine man and I want to give him that. But I will not vote for a single incumbent this next election. From the local level on up. I don't know about, "throwing the baby out with the bath water" but it's the only way we have left to us.
