Our dysfunctional two-party Congress is pathetic. |
|
They can't even agree to compromise and find a sensible solution to the immigraiton problem.
How low can their ratings go? There has to be a better way. Maybe I'll vote for Bloomberg.

If you want to throw your vote away, at least write in Eugene Debs

4. Why do you assume it would be throwing a vote away? |
|
Maybe an independent will win. That would be a good thing for America.

7. Bloomberg is a political opportunist |
|
He'll say and do anything to win - who knows what he stands for, really....

In this case tho I think it is not so bad the bill failed. I think they just wanted any bill to pass so it will look to us like they are listening. I say take some time and pass a real bill that addresses all the concerns. Will that happen? I wish I knew.

13. Mike Bloomberg hasn't said where he stands on any of the issues |
|
And he'd have to have some pretty good positions, like ending the war on drugs, to convince me I should vote for him over a Democrat. And I highly doubt that he will do this.

14. Actually, the dysfunction is that its NOT a two party congress. |
|
At least not when you have the DLC'ers and the "Blue Dogs" or "Blue Balls" (or whatever the damn DINO's call themselves) voting Republican all the time.
Bloomberg ain't the solution, but at least he ADMITS he changes parties whenever it's convenient.
