Repub Rep having no fun so he'll retire....
Rep. Ray LaHood, shown in 2005, is to retire next year. “I don’t like being in the minority,” he said. “It’s not that much fun, and the prospects for the future don’t look that good.”

the absolute and appalling lack of sensitivity to his constituents and the degree of arrogance in these people are beyond the pale.

Perhaps it will bring fun back into his life.

3. LaHood is the only one either brave enough or stupid enough
To admit the reason so many republicans are retiring next year. They're not in control of the playground anymore, and after 12 years of being in charge, they can't adapt.

5. Bye Bye Ray...
I imagine it was a lot of fun running with the bug killer and stomping down anyone that didn't agree with you're little party on K-Street?
