So, the GOP finally has control of both houses of Congress, and what are they going to do with it? Pass non-binding resolutions and propose Constitutional amendments that have no real chance of being ratified! In other words, the Republican-controlled Congress is doing NOTHING; They are a do nothing Congress, perhaps one of the most 'nothingest' of all do nothing Congresses in American history.
Problem is, they need more 'nothing' to do, as the non-binding resolution over the Iraq War is already forgotten, the Constitutional amendments they proposed that were always going to go nowhere have now gone nowhere, and the economic interests they serve have already been served (bankruptcy bill, energy bill, the Iraq War, etc.). Since this Congress is not going to do anything like LEGISLATE or SERVE THE PUBLIC INTEREST any time soon, perhaps we could suggest a few more distractions and time killers for them to partake in, like, say, amending the Constitution to give leprechauns the right to vote, or passing a non-binding resolution in support of the Crimean War...
I'm sure any suggestion will do, as long as it's not a suggestion to actually DO SOMETHING. After all, this is a thoroughly do nothing Congress we're talking about. Please suggest only non-binding resolutions or Constitutional amendments that have a chance of being ratified which is roughly similar to a snowball's chance in hell. Resolutions that are actually binding or amendments that may actually become the law of the land are completely out of line. Don't even think of proposing something that might be construed as a constructive use of political power for the benefit of the common good, as that just ain't what the Congress is about these days! Perhaps I can get things started off by suggesting the following nothings for our Congress to do:
Pass a non-binding resolution in support of Moms and apple pies
Propose a Constitutional amendment granting leprechauns the right to vote
Pass a non-binding resolution in support of the Crimean War of 1854
Propose a Constitutional amendment banning polygamy among albinos
Pass a non-binding resolution in support of pigs flying
Propose a Constitutional amendment that will expand the 2nd Amendment to protect snipe hunting
Pass a non-binding resolution denouncing cutting of any kind
Propose a Constitutional amendment that will make it illegal for unicorns and dodo birds to intermarry
Pass a non-binding resolution denouncing running of any kind
Propose a Constitutional amendment allowing invisible rabbits named Harvey to run for political office
Pass a non-binding resolution denouncing binding resolutions
Propose a Constitutional amendment to declare all Martians to be unlawful combatants
That's about all I can come up with for now. More suggestions would be greatly appreciated... just don't get your hopes up that this Congress will actually DO anything that is suggested to them! : )
