My biggest moan is when a government try to push through legislation when most of the elected people are away on holiday. What is democratic about that when it is pushed through knowing when not everybody can vote it out because they aren't there? Democracy my ass!


It's not so much eveyrones is away on holiday as it is the new people aren't seated.

Essentially the Democrats have done more, in the few months AFTER they found out America was sick of them, then they did the rest of the time.

Honestly, if it wasn't for the Lame Duck session nothing would probably get done, because everyones off campaigning at the end of their term.
