“Matter of fact, there’s no mandate in the Constitution for our legislature to spend as much time legislating, as they do.”

Heck in Texas our legislature only meets every two years - or in an emergency. They create budgets that are good for two years and adjust as needed.

There is NO reason for this to be a full time job unless of course you are having hearings on whether there should be a college football playoff system or the all important did Clemens use steroids!!???!?!?!?!!

Our elected officials put the A$$ in asinine!

Absolutely.

The US Congress could probably get all of their work for the year completed in a month or two.

All of the rest of the time they're in Washington is spent picking our pockets, meddling in our lives and our economy, and figuring out new ways to subvert the Constitution.
