Watching the uncooperative now at each other’s throats over their petty religious differences only amplifies that Toles has again hit the nail on the head, and isn’t driving them through hands and feet. Article Six of the Constitution says no religious test shall ever be required for office. The problem the right has, and yes, some on the left, is that we don’t require an intelligence test.
The radical center folk, with brains and balls, get inundated by the flood of extremist ignorance, not what the founding fathers intended, but Franklin warned of.
WHAT BUDGET???the Democrats havn’t written a budget for YEARS! including when they had control of 2 houses in Congress plus the Oval Office!-and any Obama “budget” won’t get passed in the House and the Democrat Senate won’t pass any House budget.
@disgustedtaxpayer, if all you’ve got as a measure of Republican success is what you claim is the performance of the Democrats it’s hard to imagine you could set the bar even lower.
Ever notice how few critical of Congress ever get “personally involved” by contacting their representatives and Senators, writing letters, calling them, voting for or against them based on their performance, not just party? My local Congressman is an idiot, but has some good staff people. I communicate with them regularly, and even though they don’t “publicize” actions they take that do NOT follow the “party line” they occasionally buck it. Unfortunately we’ve not gotten a good candidate to replace the guy. That means a QUALIFIED person who can do the job BETTER! Too many idiots in Congress is the fault of voters, and folks unwilling to serve, and yes, the fact the parties do seem to want idiots in there that will do whatever the real (read corporate) “powers that be” want.

The only religion Congressional Republicans take seriously is the faith of Mammon.

Reid ain’t the one holding up the budget…or the various appointments that STILL aren’t confirmed…

If we only could. But who in Congress would put such a bill forward and who would vote on it?
