  • It is, quite literally, every moment of every day. Your ignorance is fucking astounding.

    Pick any time that Congress is not in session. There is ALWAYS something they could be passing to save one group or another. Painting this shit as “OMG CONGRESS DUN CARE” is the kind of garbage-tier anti-government horseshit that ends up with idiots voting for Republicans. “Well, if da gubmint dusnt do nothin’ then why have gubmint?!?” You hear this shit every time Congress is out of session for any reason. There’s ALWAYS some bill that just absolutely has to be passed even though none of it mattered six months ago. It’s politically expedient to complain about it now, so that’s what happens.

    Congress is not full of goddamn robots, and their schedule is prepared well in advance. If you call them back to vote on this shit, you’re necessarily delaying OTHER votes and hey, guess what, when they go on break there will be YET ANOTHER vote that wasn’t done because they went on break that’s NOW the big boogeyman bill that they should be voting on rather than going on break.

    It’s a never ending cycle of bullshit.

    Pay more attention.
