I applaud the 'Bama congress critters spirit but if you can't get the sentiment to take root among the house and senate members in DC it is a mere token effort and a pointless exercise.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69080936 The question is if republicans control Congress - as they do - then why the hell not??? Something is seriously wrong with our form of government when the Congress can't do shit no matter what the party proportion. Right now, republicans overwhelmingly control congress and what have they done?
- no obamacare revisions
- no tax reductions
- no surveillance restraints
- no improved individual freedoms
- no immigration rollbacks
- no common core revisions
- no halting of forced vaccinations
- no stopping federalization of police
- no acting on posse comitatus
- no fixing our banking system
The newly elected republican Congress has done absolutely NOTHING except roll back environmental protections, protect Monsanto, and fight against legalizing marijuana. In other words, they are the strong arm of mega-corporations and want austerity measures only for common people, while corporations, the MIC, and bankers continue to gain wealth through tax loops, budgetary reallocation, and regulatory roll-backs.
We STILL do not have representatives of the people working for the common good. Our system is corrput to the core and it is IN our faces every minute of every day...and STILL we bitch about a few black guys taking some NIKES. YOUR KIDS FUTURE has been hedged, FFS!!!!
