Rush reported today about the poll that stated 14% people have confidence in Congress, which has been at an all time low for a decade now. The trouble is that when it comes time to vote the incumbents out, everybody wants to keep their own. So, what is the real problem with Congress if everybody hates them, but refuses to vote them out? What poll questions are being asked, anyway?
People have always been for their man but hate all the others. We had the “throw the bums out” discussion in the 70s.
It’s the same with term limits. People want their person to stay in forever. But term limit everyone else.
The problem with these polls concerning Congress is that different people will approve or disapprove because of the same issue, some for the issue and some against.
Some disapprove because Congress has not passed amnesty for illegal aliens yet.
Others disapprove because Congress continues even trying to pass amnesty for illegals, and are totally against amnesty.
Same for many other issues.
