Why has Arkansas been electing weak cuckholded Senators and Reps for decades?

Our congressional delegations have been less than worthless for say about 20 years at least.

We've been sending weak people to Washington that seem to never get a foothold in the ways of Capitol Hill and get their asses handed to them by politicians from other states.

How did a state that had WIlbur Mills, John McClellan, J. William Fulbright, and John Paul Hammerschmidt and a president fall so behind in congressional power and ability to get things done for their state? Ezekiel Gathings is probably not a congressman for us to be proud of. The Delta's demise has a lot to do with us segregationist views and lack of support for education and socio-economic progress in his district.


Every Congressman should aspires to do as much for their state as Robert Byrd of West Virgnina. LINK

I don't see Tom Cotton doing anything but bolster himself and his donation bucket. I don't see projects coming in to help deal with the growth of NW Arkansas. Nothing has been added in 20 years and it keeps on booming here, everything planned gets delayed and delayed and is finally finished a decade behind the need.

It's maddening.

I'd rather they not get anything done.

I'm not even going to candy-coat it...Tom Cotton is a neocon warmonger who is owned by the Israeli lobby.

That's because we are a Republican State.
You have to admit that most Republican candidates are clowns and are out of touch with the social climate we now live in.

I mean just look at the GOP primary circus.
This is what happens when people vote along party lines instead of the best candidate.
