If we don't send a message to congress soon then we might as well just roll over and die. Vote every incumbent out as soon as possible. This is the crap we have in Washington supposedly working a three day week, but in actuality not working at all!! THROW THESE BUMS OUT!!! One six year term, no retirement, no lifetime benefits, go back and get a job like the rest of us. These are the people that are deciding how we live our lives. I am sick!!

The guy sitting in the row in front of these two... he's on Facebook, and the guy behind Hennessy is checking out the baseball scores.

These are the folks that can't get the budget out by Oct. 1, Seriously!!!
So, we’ve got a 30 day budget extension. Well, guess what, 30 days from now we will be in the same boat. I guess this makes it easy for the news ‘reporters’ as all they have to do is recycle the same headlines from this week and from 2 years ago. And these yo-yo’s will still be playing SOLITAIRE!!!

I couldn't have said it better Shark! I also think they should have to take the same Helth Care package there trying to cram down our throat!!!

I agree with both of you....its a well known fact that congress is one of the biggest problems this country has.

The sad part is we are stuck with them. No matter who we put in office they are all losers.

If we tossed them all and put in new ones, how long would it be before we had the same situation all over again?

Only one term ...... vote them out or cause them to only serve one term.

no we are not "stuck with them" sunbather, we are only stuck with them if we don't vote them out!

That might actually work, Shark...but the only ones who can make it happen are those solitaire players in the legislature, and they're busy pulling in contributions for the next election. Good pay, nice benefits, lots of ego stroking, cute little interns all over the place...who'd want to leave?

Hey ! I agree with you 100%. I AM SO SICK OF POLITICS/ GOVERNMENT that I could puke !!!.
It seems like a gd popularithy contest. In these SERIOUS times WHO needs or can afford that?

If they are not losers when we elect them.. It doesn't take long for them to turn.
