One of you, (you can draw straws, since any parliamentary decision on who should do it would never come to a vote), needs to speak directly to the people you are supposedly representing, in a very public manner, and explain the following:

• Why you hate clean air
• Why you hate clean water
• Why you’re not worried that we are knowingly contributing to making our planet uninhabitable
• Why you don’t think people should be educated
• Why you don’t think it’s a good idea to cure cancer
• Why you think the richest people should get much, much richer while everyone else should just shut the fuck up
• Why you hate books, and art, and Muppets, and the Antiques Road Show
• Why TV shows just start and stop whenever they want so you always miss parts when you’re DVRing
• Why you hate truth
• Why it hasn’t occurred to you that much of the above negatively affects you, your mom and your children
• How you could have voted more than 60 times in 7 years to repeal ObamaCare without having one idea what to replace it with
• How you can possibly, with any shred of self-respect or decency, or regard for anything good and wholesome, or concern for the safety and future of your family, your dog, the country you swore an oath to protect, continue to serve and support the most heinous human being EVER to steal the office of President of the United States
