Shiner,
I certainly agree that this crap is out of hand, but it has been out of hand for a while. I'm no fan of congress but our system is based on checks and balances and this ever creeping executive branch (for the last 4 presidencies) is getting dangerous IMO.
But what I wonder is when we the people will quit using the "yeah, my guy did it, but your guy was worse." (or first to do it, or last to do it, or had to do it to level the field)
Almost all of our politicians are liars, reckless with our money and largely just concerned with how to protect their own butts and wallets. It doesn't matter if they have an R or a D by their name.
