The Miserable Failure that is the US Congress

At Liberal Forums, No You Can't posted a Rasmussen Poll showing that for the first time in history the Congress is in single digital approval ratings.

Today Congress' approval rating fell to another historic low. It's funny that Foaming at the Mouth Liberals care so deeply about Bush's approval ratings (HE'S THE MOST UNPOPULAR PRESIDENT IN HISTORY!), yet they so easily dismiss the Democrat Congress' even more abismal ratings. Today they fell to SINGLE DIGITS for the first time ever:

There are Republicans in Congress also, you know.
The Democrats barely have a majority in the Senate, and Republicans are using the filibuster
to block everything. That is their strategy. They've admitted it.
So then they can send their flying monkeys, like you, out to say the Dems are a do nothing Congress.
They are also using procedural tactics in the House to slow things down, like introducing amendment
after amendment.
They've even dug up an old rule, that allows them to stop hearings.
The Republicans care more about politics, than they do about helping the American people.
Try watching C-Span once in a while.

Regardless of who is to blame, the fact is that Americans feel fed up with their government and yet remain unwilling to do anything about it. In fact, they are depending on the government to preach and inspire change, while they continue to shop and pay the bills. Nothing in government will change without widespread socio-cultural revolution.
