Do you want to give congress 186 Million dollars to do nothing?

If the Republicans keep the house and/or take the Senate, nothing will get done for another two years.  They have stated that their goal is to make sure nothing gets done.  They even oppose things that they initially proposed (health care comes to mind).  So if you don't vote Democratic, government will remain crippled.  And it will not be any better if they take both houses, because Obama will veto whatever legislation they propose to benefit the 0.1% at the cost of the rest of us (and that's all they do because that's all they represent).  Congresspeople and Senators are paid $174,000 per year.  There are 535 of them.  They will collectively receive $186 Million dollars over the next two years.  Do you really want these guys to get 186 million to do nothing?  And while they waste time, our recovery and development remain stalled.

Imagine you had a football team.  The running back wants to be team captain and some of the linemen want him to be captain as well.  But the quarterback also wants to be captain.  More people vote for the quarterback than the running back, so the QB is captain.  Now imagine that the running back and his linemen agree that they will not try anoymore.  They won't block, they won't try to tackle, they won't run the ball, they won't do anything.  If you were in charge of this team, would you give them 186 million dollars?  No, you would fire them.  The Republicans have disabled our government.  Fire them.
