The only way to shut off the pork-barrel spending is to allow Congress to be in session four times a year for one month. Maybe then they wouldhave to prioritize??? These guys have way too much time on their hands - too much time spent thinking about how they can create their own legacies by using my hard-earned money.

Precisely. Which is why hairless reid and nancy piglosi have made the point that they're going to be working longer hours when the 'craps take charge. So they can f#@k more of us to death. I hope the President has the intestinal fortitude to wield the veto pen.

I'd like to see a short session and a long session each year, neither of them over 90 days.

The long session to be for legislation and budgets, the short one to repeal laws that are no longer necessary due to changes in society or the consolidation of 100's of laws on the same subject to one understandable law.

I know it wont happen first it would cut the neeed for as many lawyers and secondly it would defeat their goal,which is to make all of us criminals, after all free men are not controllable.
