| Yeah, Congress can't get anything done, the President is bad, and the only way Congress can stand up to them is by wasting the time of the people. 61 votes on the Iraqi war, and what have they accomplished. Democrats have a majority in the both chambers of Congress and still they will not give appointees an up or down vote.
You know the Democrats have set a very interesting precedent, and I hope they remember it the next time they have a President in office. 60 votes is what they will need for any confirmation.
