It has been an endless litany of failure; Congress simply is de facto defunct. The only two things they are able to do successfully is: (1) make asses out of themselves, (2) accuse each other of being asses.
It hasn't been any different when Obama had control of both houses of Congress, when he had control of only the Senate, or now when he controls neither house; Congress is not important anymore, although they are impotent. Congress is all talk and no action. They do all agree with Obama on one thing and one thing only: when the heat is on, it's time to get out of town for a vacation. These guys have more punts than all of the pro football teams in the country put together.
In the meanwhile, Obama has been successfully using this continued dysfunction to skirt the Constitution and commit tyranny. He should open a dress shop.
The Republicans have had endless and countless investigations into wrongdoings and have yet, after over six years, managed to complete any one of them; they have been successfully stymied at every turn. What's worse is that they don't seem to mind. In fact, in the last few days more and more of them have been shrugging their shoulders and promising, "Just wait until 2016." Well, we waited until 2010, 2012 and 2014; what's going to be different about 2016? Is Tiny Tim going to go tiptoeing through the tulips?
The Democrats have proven themselves to be anti-American. Anytime a poll shows that Americans are solidly for or against some pending legislative matter, the Democrats insist on taking the opposite position. I'd almost be willing to bet that if we all said they should get a raise, they'd vote in a pay cut.
It seems to me we may as well put Congress on unpaid vacation until 2016 and let Obama do whatever he wants. As long as he is going to get his way, what do we need this Congress for? Let's save the money and use it for buying up a bunch of sand for us to stick our collective heads into.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
