Be careful what you ask for the last Constitutional Convention threw out the government of the United States and started over from square 1

Ironically this seems to be what this administration is presently attempting to accomplish. We like to refer to the congress as being grid locked, and truly that is the case. However, it only takes one man to make that happen. Since legislation normally originates in the House and is then sent up to the Senate for consideration, one man can stymie the entire function of the Congress of the United States. That man of course, is Harry Reid, nothing comes onto the floor of the senate unless he allows it. As I mentioned, since the democrats lost their super majority in the elections of 2010, senate leader (and believe me when I honor him by mentioning his title, it is with reluctance) Harry Reid, has effectively shut down the legislative branch of the federal government. Refusing to bring up any legislation approved by the House merely because the majority of the House is republican.

Dems had a heyday the first two years of Obama's term, steamrolling over any and all objections of the out-voted republican minority. ObamaCare, possibly the biggest piece of legislation ever to come out of the congress, didn't happen because folks wanted it to happen. It happened because Pelosi, and other rabid liberals rammed it through over the objections of the people. It is still incredible to hear dems call republicans the party of no and obstructionists, when they are the ones obstructing. In a kind of political 'food fight', by throwing up a barrage of false accusations, distortions and outright lies, the dems have succeeded in confusing the scene, making the whole of congress seem inept. Even more incredible is the fact that there seems to be a relative few who can see the through the glaring hypocrisy of Reid and his band of merry mental midgets. Where is the public outrage? Where is the media? The fact is, even FOX News, is willing to venture out just so far, onto the thin ice of calling out this administration's shenanegans.
