"Gridlock is the way it should be"!
Not in time of war. We need SOLID Republican action on many fronts. Don't be lulled into things that are important, but not life saving!!! We NEED solid Republican MAJORITIES, delivering SOLID Republican solutions!!!

Smart Robot
A popular bar had a new robotic bartender installed. It could not only dispense drinks flawlessly, but also -- like any good bartender -- engage in appropriate conversation.
A man enters the bar, orders a drink. The robot serves him a perfectly prepared cocktail, then asks him, "What's your IQ?" The man replies, "150." And the robot proceeds to make conversation about Quantum physics, string theory, atomic chemistry, etc. The customer is very impressed and thinks, "This is really cool."
He decides to test the robot. He walks out of the bar, turns around, and comes back in for another drink. Again, the robot serves him the drink and asks him, "What's your IQ?" The man responds, "100." And immediately the robot starts talking, but this time, about football, baseball, cheerleaders, etc.
Really impressed, the man leaves the bar and decides to give the robot one more test. He goes back in, the robot serves him and asks, "What's your IQ?" The man replies, "50." And the robot says, "So, you gonna vote for Kerry? "
Those solutions don't require congress being in perpetual session. I can't think of many things that require such attention by congress. That doesn't mean they don't need solving, but the ones doing the solving don't need congress in session to do so.
