More, new reasons for Americans to be angry at and because of Congress

In case you missed it. Our own Congressional represntatives push legislation so they can flaunt laws the rest of us have to obey. It is truly maddening. Then, in order to get good information on it, we have to watch a comedy channel and a show of humor and satire in order to know what's going on in our government and country. The legislation was originally created in 2006, too, for pity's sake. Note that it was Representative Eric Cantor (R-VA-7th District) who killed the original bill, too. This is sick. It's crazy. Our system of government just doesn't work and this is only the latest examples of this. I hope they don't wonder why we want to replace at least our legislators, if not part or all of our system of government. We have got to get the big, ugly, corrupting money from corporations and the wealthy out of our politics and government. We need to pass the STOCK Act and it needs to include the provisions about intelligence-gathering and -gatherers, that's all there is to it.
