Vote them out and replace them with NOTHING!!
You will still get paid, have your house, pay rent and your school and your roads.
Most of them are local taxes, and state taxes.
enjoy watch washington crumble and your freedom increase.
I agree, NOTHING!!! Let them do nothing. Vote so they do nothing~!!

Amen to that! Obama said before he was elected that it would take time to get us out of the Republicans' mess. It's only been a year, and signs are showing that things are getting better. Slowly.

Who said turn it over to the Republicans?
Most clear thinkers prefer a balanced congress to prevent craziness.

What's the point of passing partisan House bills if the buck stops at the GOP-filibustered Senate?

It will be a spectacle to behold to see Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid (?) crying and begging for votes once again.
And then what gets done or do you want anything done
