Finally, the Congress of 2013 has come to a unimpressive end. These toads did less than any Congress in history….now there is something to be proud of…….all they produced was a string of talking points for their time in front of the cameras……
Why would I say such a thing?
The people we elect have done little, if anything……according to Slate…these are the bills that they actually enacted…….
1. Fixing a screwed-up bill
HR 258: Stolen Valor Act of 2013 (A new version of the law against claiming, falsely, to be a veteran. The last version was struck down by SCOTUS.)
HR 325: No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013 (The punt that delayed the debt limit.)
HR 1765: Reducing Flight Delays Act of 2013 (The sequestration “fix” that put air traffic controllers back to work.)
S 716: A bill to modify the requirements under the STOCK Act regarding online access to certain financial disclosure statements and related forms. (A disemboweling of the ban on insider t
2. Reauthorizations
3. Disaster relief and other appropriations
rading by Hill staffers.)
4. Commemorative bills
And one bonus non sequitur:The Freedom to Fish Act, which opens boating access around dams in Kentucky and bill sponsor Sen. Lamar Alexander’s native Tennessee.
Meanwhile, more than 4,000 bills have been referred to committee this year, where most will die of starvation.
Let us not forget the budget deal….which according to the MSM is something akin to the parting of the Red Sea…..
There you go…..we paid these slackers $100,000+ to do absolutely NOTHING!
But if you really want to see what these “people”, I use the term loosely are truly, all about……..
Blocked bill to aid Small Business.
Blocked Unemployment extension.
Blocked Bank Reform Bills.
Blocked Campaign Finance Reform and open Contributions Law.
Blocked MULTIPLE Jobs Bills.
Blocked Infrastructure Bill.
Blocked Ending Tax Breaks for companies that Outsource Jobs.
Blocked Wall Street Reform.
Blocked Energy Legislation.
Blocked Mine Safety Bill.
Blocked Oil Spill Liability Cap increase.
Blocked Bill to lower Oil Company Tax Breaks.
Blocked Bill to impose charging American Oil Companies on Oil achieved in the Gulf.
While these twats are doing little in DC, they are back home wearing knee pads kissing butt and massaging genitals of big buck donors……
My question now is….why do the voters keep sending this breed of low life pathetic toads to Washington to do their bidding?
That is right! If you want to blame someone….look NO further than the voter!
I can hardly wait for the acts in the center ring of the DC circus for 2014!
I didn’t see the one on any list that negates automatically raising their salary each year. Shocker
Oh, they will always get theirs…..
