GovTechGuy writes "Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.) released an official application for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, making him the first Senator to offer an official mobile application. The Chambliss app allows the public to call Chambliss' offices directly from the app and find in real-time information on the Senator's positions on current political topics."

    WTF, this is exactly what has been missing.

    How has it been missing? Chambliss, like almost every other Senator and Representative, already has a webpage with all that information already. This app is just some lame repackaging of his webpage and a call feature.

    Why do I get the feeling if Chambliss was a D, people would love his embrace of technology?

    Because you're an idiot?
