Default Should Congressmen Be Forced to Vote?

I think it's ridiculous that men who only meet something like 100 days a year don't show up at their leisure. This people are only running the country, how could they be expected to show up and do their job, and their rate ain't cheap either.

Should we force these people to vote?

Well I don't think they should be FORCED to vote, but I think they should be encouraged to vote as much as they can.

They should be forced to do their job or they should be terminated.

Sen. Susan Collins (R) Maine has never missed a vote ! I disagree with some of her votes but you have to admire her work ethic , here is a list of 2007 obama missed votes http://projects.washingtonpost.com/c.../missed/page2/
I didn't include this years but he missed 47 % but then again he has never had to really work for a living.
in 2007 he missed voting on over 70 bills!!!
he is more unreliable then N.O. mayor Nagin who doesn't even attend city council meetings anymore , is this what you want??

It was a joke. Mr. Smith went to Washington and met up with a hooker. <-----another joke.
