Congressional Approval Rating at 9%

[rpicardi1]

Liberal love to point out Bush's low approval rating. Yet, they have ignored what the public thinks about them now that Nancy Pelosi is in control of the House and Harry Reed the Senate for the past 2 years.

The percentage of voters who give Congress good or excellent ratings has fallen to single digits for the first time in Rasmussen Reports tracking history. This month, just 9% say Congress is doing a good or excellent job.

But what will the electorate do about it? Replace one party hack with another? The two party system in the US is too disfunctional to change, yet we the voters are given hardly any other choices on the ballot. One would hope that this could be the start of third or fourth party viability but I doubt it.

But what will the electorate do about it?

Most likely, the "Mindless Sheep" out there will just adsorb the MSM brainwashing, vote for Obama this fall, vote for a large numbers of Democrats for Congress, and join the large number of dead, illegal, and invalid voters of the big cities this fall to return to power those responsible for the current mess in Congress.

Then, they will pay and pay and pay for their failure to do the research and think for themselves; In higher taxes, in lost jobs, in higher food and energy prices, in fear of terrorist attacks, in lost savings and wages, in punishing taxes on their achevement, in forced rationing of energy, in restriction of travel, in lost freedom as their every movement is tracked and their energy use is controlled by the Government, in National ID card, in Government controlled health care, in control of what information they are allowed to access, and in control of what they are allowed to say or post.
