someone suggested to me that if Congress and the President can't get it done, they should be turned out of office without pay - failure to perform the duties of their office. Not one member of congress should return. Of course So. MD will re-elect Steny Hoyer because he isn't one of the bad ones... and every congressional district in the 50 states will do the same.
