I might be slighty slow in the savy of politics. I find it ironic that a reduction in our deficit has been identified as a top priority, yet the about first week into the new regime of the party change in the house is spent discussing and voting on an issue that has a widely known outcome and no chance of passing through the senate. A totally unproductive waste of time and salaries that wouldn't fly an inch in much of efficient private enterprise where the bottom line of profit is a survival issue. Regardless of whether one is for or against the issue.
Time to move forward, not sideways.
I guess Bea already said so much, just had to add another two cents.
