Rayetta's Thought for the Day

More Crocodile Tears

Charles Krauthammmer spells are so strange. (This court pick is an insult to the institution).

"To serve in Congress or even the presidency, there is no requirement for scholarship and brilliance. For good reason. It is not needed. It can even be a hindrance, as we learned from our experience with Woodrow Wilson, the most intellectually accomplished president of the 20th century and also the worst."

Somewhere there has to be someone or some group that gives positive feedback to Charles for spells like this; village idiots with trust funds, maybe.

I, Rayetta was curious to see what the requirements are to serve in Congress and found this provided by Congressman Frank, Rep., Virginia, 10th District. He has served the 10th in Congress for about 25 years, so he ought to know.

What are the requirements to serve in Congress? (According to Rep. Frank)

While there are no educational or professional requirements to be a member of Congress, the U.S. Constitution does include a few requirements regarding citizenship, age and residency. In order to be a member of the House of Representatives, you have to be at least 25 years old and you have to have been a citizen of the U.S. for at least seven years. In order to be a member of the Senate, you have to be at least 30 years old and you have to have been a citizen for at least nine years. Also, in order to become a member of the House or Senate, you must be a resident in the state that you wish to represent.

So, scholarship and brilliance are definitely not required in Congress. They are also not needed and they are a hindrance. I wonder what else Charles thinks is not needed and is a hindrance to serving in Congress?

Charles. I know that you are a closet pagan. Let us help you. You need hep!
