I recieved an email from someone about a company that had 700 employees of the 700 employees, 146 had DUI's 42 had filed for bankruptcy and all kinds of other statistics. It turned out that it was the members of congress.
I deleted the email and was looking to see if anyone else had recieved the same email or knew where this was posted on the web. If anyone has it could they post it here?

I posted it here some time ago, but I'll have to go back and see if I can find it again. It'll be a little later though, as I'm gonna' get busy in just a bit and may not be back on for a while...

Hey bankruptcy is a sign of success in America, look at Trump, he's done it many times.

We're bankrupt for any good ideas from our politicians

First, I found this online:

NBA OR NFL?

36 Have been accused of spousal abuse
7 Have been arrested for fraud
19 Have been accused of writing bad checks
117 Have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
3 Have done time for assault
71, repeat 71 Cannot Get a credit card due to bad credit
14 Have been arrested on drug-related charges
8 Have been arrested for shoplifting
21 Currently Are defendants in lawsuits, and
84 Have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can You guess which organization this is?
Give up yet? . . .


Neither, it's the 535 members of The United States Congress.
The same group of Idiots That crank out hundreds of
New laws each year designed To keep the rest of us in line.

But then I went to snopes.com (use the phrase Congress Mend in your search) and it raises very good points that should make us re-think this. I was unable to copy and paste it, but it's worth reading, if for no other reason than to remind us that we shouldn't always believe something just because it's in print or online.

Sounds about right...

this has been circulating for as long as I have had a computer. But no one ever identifies who these people,"lawbreakers" are. Just inuendo that no one can back-up....but it gets attention

Thanks jib684,

Thats the one that I was looking for. The snopes link is good too. It says a lot.

Teddy drove his car in the drink, left a girl to die, went home drunk, sobered up and reported it the next day, and didn't get in trouble. Gotta love America.

Mary Jo Kopechne "He did get in trouble, lost license for a year."

* Born: 1940
* Birthplace: Pennsylvania
* Died: 18 July 1969 (automobile crash)
* Best Known As: The woman killed in Ted Kennedy's crash on Chappaquiddick Island

Mary Jo Kopechne was killed in the auto accident that almost ended Edward Kennedy's political career. Kopechne was a former campaign worker for Kennedy's brother, Robert F. Kennedy, who was assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan during the 1968 presidential campaign. On 18 July 1969, Kopechne attended a party on Chappaquiddick Island, a short ferry ride off the island of Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts. Edward Kennedy and Kopechne left the party together; a short time later, their car plunged off the Dike Bridge into a pond, where it overturned. Kopechne died in the car. Kennedy swam ashore but didn't report the accident until the next morning, later claiming he had been dazed by the crash. Though the details of the incident are not entirely clear, Kennedy's critics suggested he had been driving drunk, had panicked after the accident, or even had tried to arrange a coverup of his involvement. Nothing was ever proved. Kennedy had been considered a likely candidate for president in 1972; instead he pled guilty to leaving the scene of an accident and had his driver's license revoked for a year.
