Are you as embarrassed by Congress as I am?
#1Are you as embarrassed by Congress as I am?
Posted: 2/13/08 at 11:56pmYou should be. What the hell are they doing spending our tax dollars on baseball!? What, exactly, is the point? It's a he said/he said situation. Only a mental deficient (which mostly seems to describe Congress) would be unaware of the fact that all professional sports has been affected by steroid use. Who cares what Roger Clemens did? Make your proclamation against team owners and the various commissions, and move on to something that matters! The sad thing is that they really act like they believe they're doing something important. They're worthless. Please be more aware of your representatives, and give them as much attention (more)as you do the presidental election. Because they're really pathetic. They never seem to find the time to do anyting of value.

Posted: 2/14/08 at 12:14amI think it's much worse that they're spending over half a trillion dollars on an illegal and immoral way.

Posted: 2/14/08 at 8:08amCongress has given into Bush in every confrontation, they gaveretroactive immunity to the telecoms - yes - as much as I don't want to agree with JohnBoy - I am embarrassed by Congress (but not as much as in having an immoral idiot as president).

Oh, but you absolutely should be. Much, much more than even the president, for all the reasons above, and more! There is so much they could do.

The buck stops where?

Posted: 2/14/08 at 9:22amI'm at the point where I'm sort of on autopilot when it comes to politics until the election is over. I'm still paying attention to what's going on, but I don't think there will be a whole lot of change until then.

Posted: 2/14/08 at 9:35amI am embarassed by both the Congress and our President, but for me, the shame gets a lot more local. I live in NJ, so I get to be embarassed by our Governor and Legilsature as well. Even worse, I live in Essex County, so I get to be embarassed by our County Officials too. Even our town is terribly mismanaged, so for me, the shame is neverending.

The only people who seem to be any good at their jobs these days are those who truly do the lord's work. Those who make chocolate, for example.

Posted: 2/14/08 at 10:06amI just heard on the radio that the three biggest chocolate manufacturers in Europe are being investigated for price fixing.

it is very hard for me to get excited over money spent on baseball when billions are spent on war and killing people, and the American lives lost.
baseball, THAT'S your gripe? GET REAL!

Posted: 2/14/08 at 10:26amI agree that Congress is an embarrassment. But what's even more embarrassing is the people that elected them.

Posted: 2/14/08 at 10:35amWhat's more embarrassing is a president who authorized torture and the outing of a CIA agent.
