i'm sorry for being harsh (really).

I am in a bad mood. As much as I blame the politicians for their corruption and overall ignorance, I blame the voters even more for sanctioning this corruption by not holding these people accountable.

Here's some more of civics 101:

President can veto the bill, but if each chamber supports the bill by a two-thirds majority, they can override a presidential veto.

Amendments to the Constitution are really hard to implement. It requires a three-fourths approval in both the House and Senate, followed by ratification by three-fourths of the fifty states.

The special interests are pretty powerful; it could pass.

This I know for certain: Election 2008 will be like a nuclear bomb on Washington. A lot of people of both parties are gonna get thrown out of office. And they should.
