The only issue on which Congress--or at least the House--is showing consensus and dynamism is the resolution that declares Turkey's actions against Armenia a genocide.
That's true; it is. Was. in 1915, when it happened.
It's fine that Congress wants to make a grand, ethical statement.
Do they have to dig back 92 years to find something they can all agree on?
Do they have nothing else to posture over, besides deaths that occurred 92 years ago?
Will we have to wait till 2099 to see action on global warming or the defense budget?
Congress' lack of attention to the many pressing matters that threaten this country is an embarrassment. Do our representatives think we won't notice if they point a finger at the Ottoman Empire?
Should I be glad that they're not picking on gays, for once, or trying to keep women barefoot and pregnant?
Please tell me there's something better I can do with my voting rights than to support these bozos.
