Any member of congress assigning his/her loyalty to anyone or group before serving the American citizens should be removed from office immediately and prohibited from ever running for any government position in their lifetime. Disloyalty should have a COST.
Why is this important?
We Americans have all been held hostage by Congressmen who have sworn loyalty to a "pledge" to NEVER raise a tax. They swore this in deference to a Congressional pledge to work for the best interests of the American people. They didn't quite, but may still drive our country over the cliff if the necessary revenue isn't restored to support our country in defense, education and citizens' health needs.
