Come home.

Dear Senator, Dear Representative,

Come home. You have been away to long. Come home, get a job in the private sector. Congress was not meant as a career choice. You remember what it was like to earn a living don't you? Come home, hire employees and create the one or two more jobs than you created during your stay in Washington. If you have been in your elected seat more than ten years, it is time to come home. Allow others a chance to serve. You have lost touch with me. You no longer represent me. Ten years is too long to wield the political sword. Come home. Power corrupts. Come home. I'm sorry for allowing you to give yourself a raise now and then. It was my mistake. Come home. Remember how our founding fathers served reluctantly with little or no recompense? They served for the sake of service. They served because they loved their country. Come home. Our president has called on all Americans to render service. If you choose to stay, service is the way. Give up your congressional salary and help reduce the deficit. If you need money to live on, a small living allowance will be provided. Need shelter? How about a one room apartment near the capitol? This will alleviate the need for a car and help lower your carbon footprint. Hungry? The capitol cafeteria is readily available with good hot food on those cold Washington nights. Set a wonderful example of service to your country. Lead the way or come home. Our country will not miss you, but I miss you so. Come home. Come home. Come home.

Love,

Your American Father
