(22,143 posts)twenty of these guys. When will they ever move on? I just don't understand why won't they move on and let the younger generation move on? If you go anywhere else, most companies in the private sector mandate that you do retire by a certain age. There's plenty of things to do afterwards for most retired persons.

(423 posts)Grassley is a fucking disgrace to this country and to Iowa. I sure as hell hope a Dem replaces him, but I would prefer it be by beating him in an election rather than an appointed replacement.
