How about we part out the politicians into garbage bags and bury them IN the swamp?
Please, no more calls to "drain the swamp." It's an insult to swamps.It is clear, then, that swamps do not deserve their reputation as useless ecosystems, nor do they deserve to be co-opted as a lazy, inept political metaphor. In fact, it would serve us well to conserve and actually expand swamp lands in many areas. The next time you hear a politician or pundit talk about âdraining the swamp,â remember that swamps can be sources of resource abundance and protection from natural disasters, which are exactly some of the functions a responsible government should promote.

Your Say
When you're up to your ass in alligators it's hard to remember why you drained the swamp.

Just move the *3 most important parts* of DC to the middle of flyover and let the rest sit there and rot.
No more then 3 parts of it are necessary or even allowed by order of the constitution, so shit can all the rest.
