Beyond the Wide Potomac

Secure behind the waters of the Potomac, cozy in "Foggy Bottom", untouched by the unwashed and comfortable in their pampered state, resides the people's representatives.  Gives one a warm fuzzy feeling does it not?
Newsletters are mailed regularly.  Spots on TV interview programs are coveted.  Speeches are made on the floor of the House or Senate, to empty chairs.  Rules and regulations are laid down for the People (you and I) to follow.  We are told that the IRS is fair and just when they bombard us with more proof, more paper work, more money, more, more, more.  BUT, when they come home they tell us all is well.  They have your best interest at heart and are taking care of you, "vote for me."
This legislation, ACA, "Obama Care" is a good example of how out of touch these people are.  In the face of all the evidence to the contrary those people still insist that all is well and we will just love Obama Care when we get to know it.  What are they smoking in "Foggy Bottom?"
