Congressional InAction

I was dismayed and disillusioned after watching the series of political events in our national congress recently.  However, I was reminded of a quote that a good friend and former school board member said to me often.   In these situations we must remember the the quote attributed to Alex de Toqueville and/or Joseph de Maistre...."the public deserves who they elect."  I don't know if I feel any better but at least I can understand why we are in the governing quandary today.
