Not paid? How about recalled or even prosecuted? Is there not ant legal responsibility for them to do their damn job, like any other government sloth?

As far as TEDB, GOOD! I am glad the republicans stood in the way of these treasonous scum as they passed terrible bill after terrible bill. A little more resistance would have pleased me even more.

Nonsense. Mitch McConnell has done nothing but lead an obstructionist group of Republicans ever since Obama took office. To lay the problem entirely at the feet of the Democrats is beyond absurd.
