After the BS we have seen from Congress these past few months,
I can honestly say that only a baker'z dozen of these bozos deserve to be re-elected. These clowns are clueless, greedy tools. People, we can do better. Ideology BS needs to be ignored and we need some pragmatic individuals with good work ethics and who remember where they came from.

2. Exactly. I thought they were going to rein in K Street.
I know a little bit has done, but they should've done that first, before attempting HC reform.

4. And the media. And PAC contributions. And lobbying. And idiot voters.
In other words, good luck. I think we're years down Reagan's stupid little path, and maybe too lazy and sandbagged to ever get out of it. We're fighting an uphill battle against people like that chicken woman of Congress what's her name Foxx?

5. All of the above.
It very much looks like we aren't going to be able to self-correct, like healthy organisms.
