This is a subject that I believe a lot of people here agree on. But that really is a huge number. What do you think? Time to clean the house?

Moreover, 17 percent think Congress cares what the American people want, compared to the large 79 percent majority who think Congress does whatever it wants to do.
so true
Now I know some of you will disregard this simply because it is a fox poll. But think about this. Just based on the discussions here, I believe that this poll is pretty right on.

Fox News as a reliable source? No way. They find stuff they like and report it and just ignore what they don't like. They called me for a "poll" a couple of days ago. First question: "Are you registered to vote?" Answer was yes. Second question: "Are you in favor of Obama's proposal for a government-run health care program?" Again the answer was yes. He said those were all the questions he had, said "Thank you" and hung up. Do you think my response will make it into their results? I think not. If FAUX News reported that the sun was shining, I would look outside before I would believe it.

If the message is that people are unhappy with Congress, well, duh. Of course we are. And with good reason. The only ones who will take a stand are hard-core right-wingers who ignore reality if it does not conform with their ideology and a few (very few) staunch progressives like Kucinich. Everybody else waffles and shucks and jives and does whatever it takes to get enough funds to get re-elected--so they can waffle some more.

the discussions in here are representative of the american people in general? heavens.
. don't mean yours btw, you seem fairly sensible, but a large percentage of the discussions in politics central lack much analytical thinking.
