If it were a celebrity or any other high-profile citizen, you know they would bring out the SWAT team and the criminals would be locked up for 20 years.

But, when it's a "nobody important" tax paying citizen, then go f-yourself.

Congrats goes out to everyone who voted in the current representatives.

Wonderful job.

Perhaps there are more fundamental issues than "people voted for the wrong person". For example, there may be problems with the governmental structure itself, not just who populates the structure.

Do you really believe that voting in team A instead of team B would have helped ordinary citizens?

Yes, I believe that our republic is strengthened if, occasionally, "throw the bums out" occurs. Even if it results in "meet the new boss, same as the old boss".

Not always. See: 2010 Tea Party backlash to Obama.
