Is there no mechanism in place for the American people to halt all Congressional action (submitting bills, voting on legislation, etc.) until a full investigation into the actions and dealings of the House of Representatives, the Senate, and the Office of the President can be performed?
Surely our founders made provision for such an occurrence, as they were well aware of the possible consequences of widespread corruption within the federal government?
As far as I can see (which is a long way in West Texas) the citizens of this country are sick and tired of the lies, deceptions and webs of intrigue that make the U.S. Congress look more like the court of a corrupt monarchy than an elected body of trusted officials.
I am troubled by the current actions of the members of both parties. These people are not noblemen, regardless of how they may see themselves, they are elected by the people.
We are not their serfs, regardless of how they may see us.
Our senators and representatives seem to be more interested in holding office and enriching themselves and their special interest supporters than doing anything for their constituents.
I submit that this is a mistake, and that this mistake will lead to long-term negative consequences for our government and us, the people that elected them.
Only by acting decisively and quickly can we hope to avoid dire consequences for our Republic.
