In other news, Congress now has a 9% approval rating. Just remember, OBAMA IS THE ONE WHO IS KILLING THIS COUNTRY

I have to say, I'm a fan of all three of my Congressional representatives (Courtney, Blumenthal, Lieberman). But your representatives suck, Rest-of-America!

"Increase efficiency"... I lolled. I'm gonna try that on my boss. I'm gonna work less so I'm more productive.

I am willing to say that I have a bad Congressional Representative who rode on the coat tails of mamma.

I look at it this way, the fewer days THEY work; the less they can screw things up in this country. Then let US work to bring us out of this economic mess. So can we cut the Legislative Work days down to say 59?

Yeah ... all three of mine suck badly. :(

Senators Diane Feinstein and Barbara Boxer, and Congressperson Zoe Lofgren for the record.
