The US Congress is destroying our nation...

[kentuck]

In the big picture, without the Congress, the President can only work around the edges on issues. The present Congress is a bunch of regressive, anti-intellectual, war-mongering, anti-government morons. We will continue this slide downward until we find a way to rid ourselves of this scourge that is now in power in Washington. Until the people wake up and throw these rascals out, the President can do little more than play defense. We need a new President but we need a new Congress more.

1. We need to primary every R seat, AND every blue Dog DLC Dino in Congress.

2. Everybody knows it but nobody wants to talk about it...

And unless the spotlight is put on them, they will continue to slink away from their dirty deeds...

3. Agreed. Sunlight is the best disinfectant

5. Just out of curiosity, how do Democrats primary Republicans?

4. We get the best representation corporations can pay for.

Our democracy still exists, but thanks to CU, the bulk of our input has changed from paper ballots to paper presidents.

The more one advances the causes and profits of "Corporation XYZ", the more one advances the political will and ethics of its board members and the lobbyists, think tanks, religions and racists they support.

8. The electoral process is broken all around.

Money equals speech, electronic voting, gerrymandering, voter apathy, a corporate-owned-for-profit media. Of course, from the perspective of TPTB, things aren't broken at all, re: my sig line:

The system isn't broken. The system is fixed.

I don't think Americans understand how truly fucked we are. We have climate change barreling down on us & clowns in Congress who don't believe in science.

9. Exactly!

And we are obsessed with a presidential election??

7. "...Congress is a bunch of regressive, anti-intellectual, war-mongering, anti-government morons"

It's government of, for, and by the corporations.

10. Congress isn't destroying the nation - right wing Republicans ae.
