    Damn lazy liberals kids conservative lawmakers just don’t want to work anymore - if they picked themselves up by the bootstraps and did their job of representing people, they’d be liked and wouldn’t need a taxpayer-funded armed security detail to protect their widdle feewings.

    So much for personal responsibility.
