Aaaahhhh!
Congress is out of town for the month of August so I can breath easier for a few weeks. No threats to raise taxes, no political high jinks, no publicity stunts, no mad rush to the TV cameras, and praise be even if it is only for a short month.
I wish Congress would take more time away from Washington. Why do we, the American people, need Congress in town for months and months? If Congress fulfilled its basic duties and stopped the silly partisan games, the American people might think more highly of it. Last report I heard Congress's approval rating was 18. President Bush's rating was 31. Thirty one is higher than 18, at least using old math.
So Congress, do us a favor and stay away.

Congress can still get in trouble while on vacation. Why not let them all stay home and hire a team of smart businessmen to run the country.
Yep, trouble awaits around every corner. Perhaps we can convince more businessmen to run for public office. My solution is to limit the terms of Congress to 6 termis in the House (12 years) and 2 terms in the Senate. If we can limit the terms of the President, why not the crooks on Capitol Hill?
