Say Your Piece And Get Out!

Don't these people ever shut up? Only when their terms expire.

While unfinished legislation stacked up, retiring and defeated lawmakers consumed hours each day in the House of Representatives and the Senate saying their goodbyes before relinquishing the spotlight.

Their farewell speeches ranged from funny to angry, from weird to poignant, and sometimes a little of each.

So long, gentlemen, and farewell. May you find more honor at home than you did in the putrid marshes of Washington D.C.
