legislative body for most of his adult life is unlikely to be in touch with anything vital that is going on in the world. If we need to have some assembly to give voice to the doddering and tottering, then let's start a new one, some council of elders, where a bunch of old folks who, if they were really smart, would have found some better way to spend their final years, can sit around and opine and deliver from time to time pointless messages to amuse the rest of us.
