This is the very problem with congress that turns so many voters off. So many who never even bother to go to the polls. The government appears inept. With a back log of 400 bills in the Senate you would think there would be some move to make those bills pass or at least vote. There has to be something in the 400 bills that the two sides can agree upon. I think the tax extendors bill that failed should be brought up again. How about Don't ask Don't tell?
Instead they enjoy another week off while millions of Americans are without jobs. They also could vote on Middle class tax relief. I heard on NPR yesterday that there is a proposal to freeze interest rates on mortagages backed by Fannie and Freddie why not vote on that?
It appears Gas is on the move up and they have not touched Biodiesel or ethanol tax credits. They will wait until we get over $100 a barrel and start screaming about how we should have alternatives but yet they have turned there backs on the entire green energy movement. How about an energy bill or a climate bill. The elections are over and I know there are some Republicans who will side with Democrats. Work with the outgoing or retiring Republicans to forge a more center way to move bills forward.
They seem to not have an agenda for the rest of the year. My guess is they will be taking the whole month of December off for Christmas. Wow I need to be a congressman.
GET YOUR ASS BACK TO WORK FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!
