What the heck is Congress doing?
It's easier to answer this question:
what is Congress not doing?
Congress is not putting all of its energy
and brainpower to work on sensible action to boost the growth of our national economy
and help create jobs for millions of Americans.
Instead Congress is wandering in the
political wilderness, trying to avoid taking action on reasonable gun controls,
reasonable immigration reform, reasonable tax loophole reform, reasonable efforts
to slow down global climate change, reasonable efforts to bring regulatory common
sense to Wall Street…
..and the leaders of both parties are
stepping up to the microphones to pat themselves on the back for their political
shrewdness and dedication to narrow-minded partisan myths about the role of government…
The
Republicans and the Democrats play their self-serving games, and the rest of us
twist in the wind...
