Congress is the opposite of Progress, right?

Ok, I’ve been waiting to see whether or not Congress had learned anything from this past election.

I’m starting to think that they aren’t capable of learning.

They – and in this case I’m referring to the democrats, are more interested in proving to the world that they “don’t work for Obama” than actually getting something done.

Dianne Feinstein, in what has to be the most resounding example of female penis-measurement I’ve ever seen, complained bitterly that she wasn’t consulted before Obama made his selection for head of the CIA.

Gee, who doesn’t work for whom?  It’s not Obama’s job to ask permission now is it.  He has to do what he feels is in the best interests of his administration, and by extension the country.

And to John Conyers – bite me.  Your empty gesture of holding up the Clinton nomination for a day so you can harass Mrs. Clinton for nothing more than being a democrat is not lost on the voters.

Congress on the other hand is desperately trying to continue to appear relevant.  Let me give you a hint.

Keep it up, you won’t be.  We can replace you with a small potted plant for the amount of work you actually do.

When congressional approval ratings hover around 19% (Source: USAToday/Gallup) and President Obama’s approval continue to run around 84% (Source: CNN) you have to think that MAYBE he has *OUR* best interests in mind, unlike you, congress, who continue to worry about your own little fiefdoms.

Keep it up, I’ll go plant shopping.
