Congress: "You take care of it, I'm going home."

You've gotta love it. This Congress has been attacking GWB right and left for "excesses of Executive power", where the President or an agency under his authority goes and takes on responsibilities duly delegated to Congress. So, what does Congress do when the Economy is in a tailspin, banks are failing left and right, and the people demand action? They go home and tell the Executive branch to deal with it. Ah, the irony. Is anyone surprised anymore that this is the Congress with the lowest approval rating in history? I wonder if the Democratic Party will be shocked to see a mass turnout of incumbents come November. A Democratic presidency and a Republican congress would be a logical reaction to the current situation.

  1. It is interesting that people who were in power for so long seem to have forgotten how to work the system. The Democratic leadership were all in the House before the Republican revolution in 1994, so they should remember how to work as a majority.
