They worked so hard in the 110th and 111th to screw things up, They need a rest.

I say, let ‘em stay home ‘til Christmas.

Any more productivity out of Congress and the Chinese would own the fillings in my teeth.

[Kickass Conservative]

For every one Bill passed into Law, three other Laws should be eliminated.

In recent years history has shown that the less those miserable cretins in DC do, the better for the Country!

[GR_Jr.]

I’ll take “least productive” from the 122th congress after what the 111th congress did to us!

Why should they bother introducing legislation and voting on it when the president just does whatever he wants anyway? So far he has done everything in his power to obliterate the will of the people: the Disclose Act, Cap and Trade, the Dream Act—all voted down by our elected representatives and subsequently imposed by executive branch fiat. And now possibly the debt ceiling . . . I’m sure there are others.

[OrangeHoof]

With Obama in the White House and Dems leading the Senate, “unproductive” is about the best we can hope for.

I think the Texas legislature has it right, they only meet for a designated period in a year, I can’t remember if it’s once a year or every two years.

Did it even occur to this dimwit that the reversal in the house coupled with ultra-liberal Senate leadership = no agreement on any direction?

It is obvious why so little was done. The two houses are going to totally opposite directions. There is no need to even put bills in when it is obvious they will never pass the other chamber.

Thank the little baby Jesus!

Hey Harry! How about producing a budget? How many years has it been.

112th Congress is one of the least productive in years

Good.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

I would have been ecstatic if her "uncomplicated reply" had been "I thought that we would vote on repealed a lot more bills." This country does not need "more bills." It needs far less intrusion into private affairs, ergo, fewer laws.

[goat granny]

any year the congress doesn’t do much is a good thing for the citizens....making laws is how they keep their jobs..most laws we don’t want or need...

[jmaroneps37]

“112th Congress is one of the least productive in years”
I’ll take that! Better nothing than the damage the previous two did.

[WOBBLY BOB]

To be “productive” one must produce something.(other than steaming heaps of BS.)
