The Obama administration...and so on...

Everybody needs to remember, however "bad" Obama is, he doesn't have the "real" control. Our House of Representatives is where "The Power" is at. Every bill has to originate in the House. And guess what... We can kick every single one of them out every two years!!! That's right, every two years they are ALL up for re-election. Try this, if you really want "change" then vote for ANYBODY except the person that is already in the House. Changing all 435 representatives would be a HUGE wake up call to sleaze balls in charge.

when I came to this country, many years ago, they adviced me that, if I see somebody hurt, do not try to move or help that person untill paramedics arrived, because I could make matters worse, since I have no training. This government is moving the person without knowing what to do.

Yeah ---Rule #1 - Do No Harm.

I do not believe Congress takes the same oath as Doctors.

If CON is the opposite of PRO
Isn't CONGRESS the opposite of PROGRESS?

It sure as hell seems so.

BC I believe you are mis-reading that. The House of Representatives, AKA the legal mafia has an election every 2 years but only a portion of them are up for re election at each interval, approx 1/3. Done constitutionaly to keep the high level of competency they have obtained being consistent.

Sorry Willy, The entire house is elected every two years.... "The term of office is six years and one-third of the total membership of the Senate is elected every second year. The terms of both Senators from a particular State are so arranged that they do not terminate at the same time. Of the two Senators from a State serving at the same time, the one who was elected first--or if both were elected at the same time, the one elected for a full term--is referred to as the "senior" Senator from that State." That's for Senators.

In the House...."As constituted in 1997--the 105th Congress--the House of Representatives is composed of 435 Members elected every two years from among the 50 States, apportioned to their total populations." There is NO mention of splitting the House terms up as it does for the Senate.


THE ENTIRE HOUSE IS ELECTED EVERY TWO YEARS....Do you guys not remember your social studies classes??????
