Politicians - Always willing to help (themselves)
I said this before. I think Congress should NOT be in session during election years.
Some important stuff may be delayed; however, the self-serving garbage laws would be avoided...

On the American Spectator website, Andrew Cline summarizes his article with:
"As America's economy reels, Congress ignores urgent matters such as dealing with high energy and food prices and instead passes resolutions apologizing for historical wrongs that ended before the average American (the median age is 36) was born. And as if designed to illustrate the blatant hypocrisy of Congress, that resolution was brought up solely to damage the electoral prospects of one of the people to whom the apology was directed.
Yes, Congress owes apologies, lots of them. But the American people will never get the meaningful ones. Congress isn't done screwing us just yet."
