If people think congress isn't doing a good job?

then why are they voting to return Republicans, the ones who shut down the government, mismanage the country, cutting everything in sight and giving away our money to big corporations? These uninformed voters are going to be voting against themselves.

I don't understand their thinking, they bitch and moan about "Obama" and continue to vote for those who do not do anything resourceful, and think the rest of us at free loaders, they are a perfect list of "takers" from the gubermint. To top this they still vote themselves raises.
