Have you seen the latest approval ratings for congress? They are at all time historic lows. Even lower then President Bush's ratings. According to Rasmussen 9% say Congress is doing a good or excellent job. Only 9% of Americans think Congress is doing good. We should fire them and start fresh.

Meanwhile, congress seems oblivious to the people and is wasting money on this

Here’s one I just never imagined the federal government might take responsibility for: bedbugs.

That’s right. No issue is too small for your Congress to handle. But seriously, judging from the comments so far on H.R. 6068, the Don’t Let the Bed Bugs Bite Act of 2008, people think bedbugs are a problem that Congress should address and that the federal government can help solve.

The bill would create a grant program in the Department of Commerce and authorize $50,000,000 in each of fiscal years 2009 through 2012 for giving these grants to states. It may be that taxpayers should worry more about the bite put on their wallets, but if people want Congress to do something about bedbugs, they want Congress to do something about bedbugs.

Did you catch that number? Thats 50 MILLION DOLLARS a year spent on fighting bed bugs.

Pork Belly programs are dragging down this country's budgets all over. Just tell the dems to wash their sheets every once in awhile and they wouldn't have bed bugs. :D

Hell I'll wash the sheets for $50 mil
