Remember term limits?????
One of the biggest charades pulled over on America by the Republican party. Well, here's another Republican going back on his term limit pledge. This quote confirms he is either a liar, a dumbass or most likely both:

"It seemed to me at that time term limits would be a good idea for the nation," he said. "I didn't fully understand what personal relationships and seniority could mean to the district."

2. I'm curious
How many people here support term limits??

I am STRONGLY in favor of limiting the terms served on the national level. 2 wins in the senate and 4 wins in the house sounds good to me. After that, time for some new blood. Make the politicians live in the world they are creating.
