>>to say, but whenever the House and Senate vote a bill into law then our government has worked as designed. Each House and Senate member will represent their constituency in their vote, and they’ll be considering their next election.<<
Sorry to say, Congress does NOT represent their constituency! They don’t care one bit about you and I. Try writing to them. IF you get an answer, it is all about them and zero about your concerns. Try calling their offices. You get either Miss Perky, who doesn’t know squat (and cares less) or Ms Know-it-all, who knows everything about everything and can’t be bothered talking to us.
Congress has become the royalty and the abuse we fought against 234 years ago. What are we going to do about it?
Most will stay home, glued to the idiot box, watching this week’s “Dancing with the Stars”.
re: nthockey: “congress does not represent their constituency”
I agree with your individual points but in the final analysis voters freely select their representatives. If we don’t pay attention and select crummy ones, the blame has to fall on “we”.
