Mr Brady,
If you ever find yourself in a quandary about the right thing to do, a good rule of thumb is often available from your colleague, Louie Gohmert (R...of course, TX1).....just do something other than what Louie does and you should be okay. Louie stepping into the pool with Bachman should be enough evidence of the value of this theory....
Gohmert appeared on The Dennis Miller Show radio program Tuesday, where he said "it's obvious that [McCain] didn't even read the letter because of what he accused Michele and us of making these horrible allegations. There were five letters and there were many things that are stated that are facts in each letter, and I wish some of these numbnuts would go out and read the letter before they make these horrible allegations about the horrible accusations we're making."
My congressman is Kevin Brady (R...of course, TX8) and does enough dumb shit on his own. Even though I doubt this will mean much to him, I'm just trying to be helpful.
