Good day all. Congress’s approval ratings are, to put it bluntly, lower then a worm suffering from Dysentery anus. Both sides of the aisle are to blame of course, with the Democrats working to end Constitutional government, and the Party of Stupid being…Stupid.
In this case, we have a story about one Representative Todd Rokita, who is a paid up member of the Beltway Uniparty, GOP(e) wing. This over-privileged pile of horse dung actually has an 8 page memo on what his chauffeur’s duties are. Here are the details from Fox News:
Prepare a cup of black coffee, make sure his toiletries are organized, have a camera charged and clean the car of any garbage — these are all things an aide must do before picking up Indiana Rep. Todd Rokita from his home each day.
The unusual list of demands — confirmed to Fox News as authentic by spokesman for Rokita’s 2018 U.S. Senate campaign Tim Edson — is designed as a guide for the staffers tasked with driving the Republican congressman around.
You have to follow the link to the “Requirements” His Royal Highness demands. However, I have a suspicion that this micromanaging drivel wasn’t something Rokita actually wrote. At least I hope it isn’t.
The instruction manual, titled “Instructions on Staffing and Driving,” is broken down into various sections of preparing Rokita, 47, for his day — from preparing a checklist of materials, to specific home pick-up instructions, to responsibilities while driving and what to do when attending and leaving events.
Drivers — who are asked to “not interrupt [Rokita’s] prep time with unnecessary conversation” — are expected to carry a toiletries box and a separate supply box known to staffers as the “Football.” That box includes products such as gum, tissues, hand sanitizer and a blue marker — “for signing letters” — to name a select few.
When asked about the detailed 8-page memo, Edson said, “there is nothing wrong with being prepared and organized,” adding a detailed list like this is “pretty standard stuff for a campaign or member of Congress.”
If this is “Standard Stuff”, then Houston, we have a problem. I fully agree that a simple checklist is called for, but this memo is anything but. I have to assume that Rep. Rokita is fully aware of it and signed off. This presents a serious problem. If my assumption is incorrect and Rokita didn’t know about it, then he is to clueless to be in the House of Representatives. If he did sign off, then he is to arrogant and stupid to be in the House of Representatives.
This is why he appears to be running for the United States Senate, a body made up of incredibly stupid and arrogant people. This memo does not give me any confidence that this clown has a clue about what’s going on. He should have shot it down as soon as his Chief of Staff wrote it up. If they actually need something like this, then his Chief of Staff is hiring morons. In either case, this clueless idiot needs to find a real job in the “Dreaded Private Sector.” It looks like he has someone who is going to give him a run for his money in 2018.
Rokita, who’s running a competitive race for a Senate seat next year, has in recent weeks traded insults with Republican challenger Rep. Luke Messer, who, in response to the memo, joked on Twitter that his drivers needed to stop at a local pizzeria to pick up a pizza he already will have ordered on his own.
What? He doesn’t have it delivered? I guess he doesn’t like tipping the drivers. Well, at least both of them are probably better then Democrats.
First, I won’t be at all surprised if their “Instructional Memo” isn’t at least 20 pages long and will have even more requirements. You know, things like making sure the bar is stocked, the hookers are pretty and clean, and that the Red Carpets and little girls with baskets of rose petals are waiting at every event they go to. Is it any wonder people are ready to string the lot of them up these days?
