send all the congress members to JAILS, and treat them with Hard Jobs....that's it....o.k, Nation is facing all BS...idiots...GOP thugs...
The problem is simply contracts. People need to quit entering into contracst with any company. Period.
It's about time the democrats began calling these obstructionist what they really are. These modern day extremist, and borderline facist republicans are holding the country hostage for their own political gain.
Congress is doing exactly what we want them to do while this moron is president....nothing. 2012
The Senate doesn't "reflect" our mood, it is one of the primary causes for our mood. In particular, the GOBPbaggin' obstructionists hate government so much they want it to fail.
