Well, Congress is back from break, and there are plenty of things they think they need to do, what with gas prices, Iraq, immigration, etc., etc. Whatever the list of matters at hand, the scenario will play out as it always has: members of opposing parties will line up across the aisles and fling poo at each other, each side hoping more poo sticks to their opponent than to them. Then, equipped with sound bites, film and banners, they’ll all head home to Labor Day festivities, and demonstrate to their constituents all they’ve done for the country, and solicit votes in the November election. Then in the fall, the whole circus starts again.
There’s a better way, first mentioned here: the NI1 Party. A new broom sweeps clean; boot these bozos out come November.

I’m not so sure the NI Party could keep up good governance in the long term. Sure, we would get some short term gains now in just not having this current crop of bozos, but it seems that we would never get anybody very far down the learning curve.
I propose the NB (Not Bought) Party. That would get rid of the vast majority of the incumbents and set us down the road to keeping and maintaining a decent group of legislators.
