Tell what I would do if I could: restrict congress to ONE two-month session each year.

We have sort of an inside joke about this here in Texas where our legislature is required by the Constitution to meet for 140 days every two years. Some of us have suggested that the fellow who wrote that into the Constitution was dyslexic and reversed the sentence which should in fact read "for two days every 140 years".
