Congress doing less is not necessarily a bad thing.

I don’t see this as necessarily a bad thing.

For example, while the Democratically-controlled Senate was in session for 170 days, it spent an average of just 6.5 hours in session on those days, the second lowest since 1992.

I'm surprised it's this much, with the benefits, perks, and pay they receive. The conditions are ripe for them to abuse the hell out of their jobs.

Lazy senate, lazy pResident.

Seems the only ones who are working are the czars and all we know is that they are up to nothing good.

Rats don’t need to do anything since Barry passes most things by Executive Order or such.

They can just fundraise, fly around , and worship The One.

You can also look at it as they haven’t passed as much damaging legislation as they could have the last 10 years. Obamacare was so bad they had enough reserves of bad to last them a few more years, even if they pass nothing else.

“Democrat-controlled Senate laziest in 20 years”

Why is that bad?

“On the passage of public laws, arguably its most important job, the Senate notched just 90”

That’s 90 too many.
