Members of Congress have been, historically, useless meatheads who couldn’t think of anything else to do with their lives.
This didn’t all start with Ms. Pelosi and Mr. Reid.
Although, I will allow that those two are magnificent putzes. :)

Don’t worry if it looks bad in November they’ll just pass a new law declaring Obama ruler by fiat or something. heh

The electorate is either stuck on stupid, asleep or pathetic. Mis-educated and self-absorbed.

No. We have become a democracy which term really translates into governance by money. For example, Jesse Unruh a powerful past Democratic leader of the California Legislature stated: “Money is the mothers milk of politics.”

Small point and mainly verbal but Oligarchy is usually a nobility. There is nothing noble about any member of congress. Simply a rabble, each member of which has leather lungs.

There’s usually nothing really noble about nobility either.

Its become a haven for airheaded, indifferent drones, somewhat similar to the French aristocracy. You know, the level of disconnect of the French aristocracy comparison is pretty accurate along with the imperious attitude. Of course if you used that to their face you'd be arrested for threatening violence given what happened to the French aristocracy.

This article is cosmically stupid...its not the Congress but the VOTERS who enable the same corrupt bunch term after term after term. In many cases, the party apparatus works very hard to ensure that nobody good gets on the ballot or--if someone good does get on--works even harder to undermine that person. The GOP is infested with RINOs who regard conservatives as their enemies and liberals as their friends. In many cases, the majority of voters may want to have a good candidate, but the party apparatus won't let that happen.
