So why did Nunes resign if he was doing such good? A media position doesn't seem to be as effective as being resistance to corruption.
So if we apply your standard, do some real good as Nunes did and then resign.
I'll give Rand Paul props for doing what he does and almost being assassinated in the process. And he is still in the game.
This difference of opinion really isn't that important. We need more of both types like these.
