Congress, with its Republican obstructionist contingent, has been severely broken since Bush left office. Thanks Republicans. You have tainted the entire Congress with your petty crap, and the public is outraged more than you care to admit.
If Both parties are serious about smaller Govt. they shoud get rid of congress and just have one house in the capitol........ at the moment two houses are doing one job.

If you have been pulled into the left-right Hegelian Dialectic Paradigm, you've done exactly what they would like you to do taking you out as any potential threat to special interests.
The tread was titled..
Majority would vote out entire Congress
Start cleaning House, Political Reform, Re-establish checks and balances with independent, decentralized Media, re-establish resource-based currency and Spiritual Bible-based foundational morality and I agree.
Get pulled into their Democrat, Republican paradigm and we lose.
I think we've lost anyway. Ted Turner and gang are laughing at the American public for being so Naive I'm sure giving high fives to the Democrats, low fives to the Republicans, and a double back slap to the Centralized "Tea Party". When you are the opposition you don't have opposition.
Republicans, in their sour grapes obstructionism, have given us the worst Congress in the history of this country. Stands to reason that the gains they made in '10 must be undone, in order for Congress to once again regain its footing just in time for President Obama's second term. Congress remains broken as long as Republicans are at the table in numbers that matter.
Actions speak louder than words. If the American people have been so dissatisfied with Congress, then why haven't they voted them out yet? In spite of Congress having a dismal approval rating (around 10% the last I checked), the majority of incumbents in the House and Senate will get re-elected for several more terms. Bet on it.
Because people want to vote out everyone else's representatives--not their own. Apply nationally, and nothing changes.

Two houses are doing two jobs. Congress was specifically split into a senate, with equal representation of states, and a House, with equal representation of population. There was a huge battle about this 230 years ago.
All this talk about Democrats, Republicans, Progressives, Conservatives, Left, Right...
You need to stop listening to their promises and begin making DEMANDS of them. If you settle for what they offer you, you will NEVER get what you need.
