Hotboxing the House of Representatives

Is Congress high?

With voters clamoring about record high gasoline prices, the House voted 324-84 in a largely symbolic measure that essentially would declare as illegal any effort by the cartel to set world oil prices.

The bill would authorize the Justice Department to bring suit against OPEC member countries in U.S. federal courts.
Every single Congressman/woman who voted for this bill should be ousted in the next election. That's just embarrassing.

How does one go about getting elected to one of those seats without the slightest grasp of even one of economics, law, or international politics?
