An Irredeemable Congress

The most important thing to America's miserable national legislature is not peace. It is not prosperity. It is not freedom for the United States or across the globe. It is that the legislators settle their business so that they can get home for the holidays. Millions of American troops have been deployed far from the homeland through the generations and were unable to make it home for Christmas, and many thousands never made it back at all. Think of the willing sacrifice of US service personnel, then compare that to the selfishness of many of our Representatives and Senators.
