Salon has an article about the anger in the HOUSE

[Bitwit1234]

The House of Representatives had a meeting in the basement of the House and came to this conclusion. They write a bill, send it to the senate. The House has a majority and it gets written. When they send the bill to the senate who has an 18 vote majority it gets stripped of all the good stuff and can't be passed.

They say they send many a good bill to the senate and there it DIES . They say the republicans are just the opposition...the senate is the enemy. And I agree. The senate can't get their crap together to do anything. It should be stripped of all the unreasonable rules and regulations that hamper the doing the publics will.

5. there's also a lot of anger AT the House . . .

among Americans who are struggling to keep their jobs and homes, feed their kids, and try to figure out how to keep working after retirement, since most of them won't see any of those retirement funds that were "set aside" for them . . . and maybe even how to get by without Social Security, if that new commission is charged with presenting resolutions that Congress can only vote on, up or down, and not alter in any way . . .

what a country . . .
