Our neer do well Congress has finally shown how useless they are. We as voters have never really trusted elected officials but we have re-elected them time after time out of ignorance, laziness or party loyalty. In retrospect our 535 with all of the recent hedging and media appearances (for no good reason) have failed to do what we pay them (handsomely) for. This is not a new development, we have just been lucky enough to have modern mass communication that  tells us everything the Congress does  and says (and they seem to love being in the spotlight) even if it what is issued barely relates to the truth. The past few years  (and more) should make it clear that our Legislators have only the interests of their big money backers and  what ever it takes to look after themselves. If we do not begin to vote against these long term  seat fillers, our government malfunctions will continue. This has nothing to do with anything more than firing non productive workers.
