Oh yes, I get it. I see what Congress does - wastes more money and nothing to show for it.

But what about the children? Congress loves the children, and the children would be unloved without the Congress!

Congress is a completely unaccountable branch of government as they control their own budget. In light of the Katrina disaster one would think that they would trim their vast pork allocations in the highway bill, but NO!

My favorite "Congress is obsessed with itself" moment came during the Roberts hearings, when Arlen Specter ranted on to John Roberts about how upset he was that the Supreme Court chided Congress in a recent ruling. "I don't like being spoken to like that, I am a US Senator" he blathered.
