“I have no interest in going back now. How do you get there? Train? Plane?” House Appropriations Committee Chairwoman Nita Lowey told C-SPAN Monday of returning to Congress on April 20. [More]What, do the job we reap fabulous rewards from...? What do you think we are, little people?
And here's the kicker:
“Unless it’s safe, I think we are better off doing our work, as we have been doing, passing bills by unanimous consent,” she continued, referencing a rule that allows bills in Congress to pass as long as no present members voice objections.That's not what the provision is for. But I can see the tyrannical-minded amending that and "voice voting" all kinds of "controversial work."
What could go wrong?

Say, kids, I got a swell idea!
Why don’t we make Congress use those mail-in ballots they love so much?
It won’t stop the growth of tyranny by any means, but it sure will slow it way down!
