That was craptacular. Add into the fact that some of it is patently false. For instance, that story about Jamil Hussein? EVen the right-wing Little Green Footballs says the guy exists.

larry00 :Congress favorable numbers have been in the dumpster for many years.
As long as I can remember it has been in the dumpster.
Regardless of the party in power.

As with most of what you post, that was totally and completely false. Congress' approval ratings skyrocketed after the 1994 Republican Revolution for a time. They tanked because your pals persecuted Clinton for an affair, and because Newt Gingrich thought that, somehow, shutting down the government would win his party points. Republican control started sliding after that; had it not been for the 2001 terrorist attacks, the Republicans probably would have lost control sooner.

Well it didn't happen and won't till we get Term Limits.

Yes. Because the most important thing in an age of globalization is a Congress full of freshmen and relatively new legislators who don't know jack-all about foreign policy, America's existing economic and military commitments, and the complex interrelationships between the Presidency, executive offices, the courts, and our existing treaty relationships.

Yep thats right those in the cat bird seat have to vote to cut their teat off.

Don't like it? Use the power of constitutional conventions to change it. In the meantime, the smarter Americans realize that, for all the dangers of incumbency, kicking out smart legislators simply because they know what the fark they're doing is a great way to fark over the United States.
