"The biggest reason I see that nothing of substance gets done inside the Beltway is that everybody is so afraid of the other side taking the credit for legislation that might actually benefit the population instead of the corporations, that they continuously one up each other with competing bills that are pretty much designed solely to thwart their opponents. "

That pretty much sums it up. Also, I support the use of your term "Congresslizards." Nicely done!

Thanks for bringing yet another piece of essential news to light that I haven't seen on cnn or googlenews today. As usual, this blog is providing those of us in the "heartland" (I'm a stay at home Mom in the South myself) with invaluable information not typically available to us. Fantastic, off to go check out your Booman link now.
