Ok--so congress is back in session--whoooppee. I mean, why does that not cover me with the warm fuzzies? Could it possibly be due to the fact that there are at least two pin-heads in congress--Sister Nancy Pelosi and Hairless Harry Reid--..Pelosi at the moment leading the dumb pack--according to her, the U.S. has 500 Million Jobs that are about to be lost, versus a population of 306 Million. If she is no more aware of her surroundings than this--the House would do well for itself to make some leadership changes.
