| 45. Power corrupt and absolute power corrupt absolutely |

before there were Gingrich and Hastert, there was Jim Wright.
And the guy from Chicago - cannot remember his name - who chaired the appropriation committee.
Controlling Congress for 40 years we've had our share of corrupt and ossified politicians (we still have some of them, people in their 80s who don't know when to quit)
If we do take control of Congress, I hope that our Representatives will remember the lesson of 1994.
