NUTTERS IN CONGRESS VOTE CONTEMPT


Another Huge Waste of Time
By Victor M Adamus

From the Washintong Post

Worst Speaker Ever.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) called the vote an “abuse of power”. House Speaker John Boehner (Ohio) said that “no Justice Department is above the law and no Justice Department is above the Constitution, which each of us has sworn an oath to uphold.”

And yet, for all of that amped-up oratory from top leaders in their respective parties, the likely effect of today’s vote — to the extent there is one — is to convince people that all the bad things they think about Congress are, well, true.

Remember the political backdrop for this vote. Congress is on a long losing streak when it comes to the American public; in Gallup polling, Congressional approval hasn’t been higher than 24 percent since last summer and currently stands at 17 percent.
