This is an interesting little program I’ve whipped up today. It presents our Members of Congress, sorted by their birthdays, oldest to youngest. Hover your mouse over any age break and you can see how many members are that age or older. For example, sixteen of them are 80 or older, and all but one are men. Kinda blows my mind. Yours?
The items in green are links. Clicking on a Name takes you to my LegiState program, selects the State and presents the person. Clicking a State does the same, showing all members of that State. Bioguide and OpenSecrets links are also available.
I’m sorry that they’re all unattractive people (except Kirsten Gillibrand of course). Here’s the program in it’s own page…
OMG! I found a House member from Illinois (Timothy Johnson) that was born the same day I was and it looks like his picture was photoshopped from the nose down! Yep…
They should run this guy through the Sex Offenders registry!
Too old to think right! I know at 68 my mind wonders around too much. What in the world are our people thinking these old men can do for us, get them out of the House and Senate.
There are 127 people older than me in that list, and often I can’t remember what I had for dinner the night before. The people need to enact term limits for these Congress folks, who won’t enact their own!
