Congress is where it should be at. But, it ain't.

You can talk about your two pretty white men, with nice hair. You can talk about a couple of mixed cultured progressives. But the real game in town(Washington DC)is in Congress.

No matter who wins the Whitehouse this fall, the real ground battle will be on Capitol Hill. Mostly in the House of Representatives. The place where bad ideas and dead wood exists side by side. The incubator of legislation reversal and partisan hysteria. The hiding place of John Boehner, Eric Cantor, and Paul Ryan. All hunkered down in ‘The House of Misrepresentatives.’ Sometimes known as The lobbyist’s massage parlor.

Never the less, the US Congress needs every bodies attention. Every voter. Every reporter. Every camera needs to be focused on the horror that goes on in the halls of Congress. And, it’s out in the halls where the dirty work goes on and money is exchanged. Like money changers in the hallowed temple of the people that were angrily tossed out. Remember the New Testament narrative that cleansed the Temple?

To make this short and not so sweet, Congress needs to be turned over. Fixed and flipped. All incumbents swiftly hosed out the back door. Voted out of office. Just being a congressman does not a career make. Get in. Get out.

Vote incumbents out. Let’s try some fresh faces. New ideas. Then, move on with more new faces. This my friends, is the American way. God bless America. God forgive Congress.

Hurry, hurry, hurry! See the committee chairman lie like a rug.

Darrell Issa should be held in contempt of America. Failing to to honor the constitutional sworn will of the House of Representatives. Turning his House position into a Circus ring master and bellowing like a side show barker. Saying untruths while hiding his intent. His intent? To distort, demean, dishonor, and bring down the American government. An anti-American sold out to big money interests. Interests attempting to embezzle all American’s money. Pollute the entire Earth. De-regulate banking and Wall Street so consumers have no recourse or rights. Hold America hostage so banking and energy drains all capital into an offshore bank. Need I say more?

So the only way to get this done is bring down Obama. Fire the Attorney General and weaken all regulatory agencies and then take control of yours and my money.

Does it sound like I am angry? Yes! I am. I use to think there were some redeeming values in the Republican party but after about two years after the 2010 election, I see NO redeeming values in the RNC at all. John Boehner is a certified prevaricator. Darrell Issa is the Anti-Reagan. Mit Romney is a blathering idiot and most clueless. Just look for yourself. Jug heads all of them.

What has the House been smoking?

One could only shake a head in complete bafflement, when considering Congress. What congress does or doesn’t do. More like what congress ignores and fails to do. None the less, they act as if they are the creators and takers away of life. Performing in public as if a huge body of Roman Caesars often giving the thumbs down on many proposals that would benefit Americans. Completely ignoring the will of the American public.

Never the less, all of them wrapped in a colorful bunting of self-righteousness. Shouting platitudes and empty slogans. “Jobs-jobs-jobs. Obama is bad for our country. We will never pass any of his legislation.”

Never mind what America wants. Jobs, health care, clean environment, quality education, roads, public transportation, high speed rail, etc. And a safe secure place to live.



In the mean time congress is moralizing in a mirror and smoke filled room of partisan alchemy. The wizards of Ego. All naked and exposed. Wearing the Emperor’s clothes. Charlatans all of them. Spineless political groupies. Never seen alone but huddled in dark rooms of secrets and conspiracy. All acting on behalf of billionaire sugar daddies. Bought and paid for.

It’s absolutely absurd to hear stories about Roger Clemons accused of lying before congress. Especially when congress lies to America every day.

Likewise, to think Attorney General Eric Holder might be held in contempt of Congress. Congress has be in contempt of America for decades. Every day. Twenty-four/seven. Day in. Day out. Blather ring, bloviating, road blocking, and killing good legislation. All should be charged with murder in the First Degree. Charged for murdering good bills and regulations. Hypocrites all of them. Take’em Danno. Take’em to the slammer!

Get out the lie detector Roger!

Now from our sports desk. Roger Clemens. Ace pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, and a couple other teams. Certainly a distinguished record as a major league pitcher.

However, as you may or may not know, accused of lying to congress. Lying about performance enhancing drugs. Drugs he may or may not have taken. Taken as if it really matters.

What is most disturbing about this whole twisted story is , lying to congress. Lying to congress? If my memory serves me well, I am almost certain Congress lies to America every day of the year. Lying before congress; absurd! Congress is the body of disdain that should be on trial and in question about its past. Just a bunch of circus clowns intent on photo opping and bloviating big time. Huh! Lying before congress? Utter madness. Congressmen and women are the big fat liars. Send them to the showers and lock the door.

It's time for Spring Cleaning. Clear out the rotten wood.

Congress is public enemy number one. It’s time to get rid of all members of the House of Representatives. Vote them out. Clear out the dead wood. Remove the Reps on the lobbyists dole. Sweep it clean. Vote against all incumbents. Search and destroy the ambivalence. Clean up the political mess in the halls of congress.

Get rid of House Speaker Boehner. Remove the anti-American US Rep Paul Ryan. Stop the flow of lobbyist money. Vote them all out. Gone. Good riddance and don’t come back. Tell the Koch Brothers to stick it!

I think we are back to taxation without representation maybe.

If congress has its way, then not too far down the road America will have an economy much like present day Mexico’s. An economy and infrastructure falling into ruin. Crumbling roads, bridges and no one left to police and teach our nation. A has been society following the footsteps of ancient Rome.

All this because congress was(and still is) fiddling while America’s economy crashes and burned. And only because Congress does not want to allow any meaningful legislation with may have President Obama’s endorsement. However, congress has no worthwhile and meaningful legislation to offer as an alternative. Nothing. Just stop Obama. Which is to say, Congress wants to stop America. Stop you and me. Just resist and continue to press for tax cuts for the rich and get rid of any helpful consumer protection.

Believe me, Congress hates America and the American life style. The leadership wants to dismantle what we Americans have come to expect as good government and good legislation. Legislation depending on all to pitch in. Share and share alike. All for one and one for all. The America World War II was fought for. The America who sent men to the moon. The same America that became the World’s leading Technologist. An America willing to sacrifice to help it’s poor, homeless, school children, and it’s elderly. Benevolent, bold, and willing to dig in for the sake of all Americans.

Tell your congressman or woman to think America and get back to work. Tell them to put down their partisan demagoguery and pick up the mantle of freedom and a prosperous and strong America. They have obviously forgotten who they represent. Too many congress members have been lured away from their first and foremost representative duties. Representing you and me in the halls of congress. Instead congress has been doing the bidden of special interests. Interests not in the best interest of the American people. Distracted by big money delivered by the buckets full by lobbyist and Big Business. Meaning they don’t represent us. But interests working against good government. Special interest who’s only intent is to gather in every last dime from the poor and middle class. Money is their only goal. Leaving America to fall apart.

Let’s only hope we Americans can stop this and stop this now. Get rid of your distracted Congress person. Hire and vote for a reputable person who’s only intent is to follow your instructions and get back to rebuilding America. The America we once knew and loved. God Bless America.

Nada senor. Congress has done nada. Zip zero!

So far, the current Congress is the biggest “Do Nothing Congress” since the Truman administration. This is according to the latest statistical research. Not much has been accomplished since 2010. Barely much has happened. Nothing. Zip. Zero. Nada. Blank. Just an empty space. Batting .000.

How did this happen? Or, should I say, how did this not happen? What went wrong? How is it that nil was accomplished? Or, unaccomplished? The congressional records only have two and a half pages in its logs. All the invocations, flag pledges, and break for lunch motions and seconds going back to Jan 2011. That’s it. Nothing else. Fade to black.

How could it be that four hundred plus U S Representatives couldn’t get anything done? Was there not a quorum? No House bills to debated and vote on? Could they have been all asleep? Maybe more like out to lunch? Drunk under their desks? What?!

There are no excuses. The zeros speak for themselves. You cannot deny numbers or the lack there of

I think we might have a good case here for an all-new congress. Empty out the house and hire a new batch of Reps. Start all over again from scratch. What do you think?
