A Day off is Freedom For You and Me

When Congress takes a day off, it is good news for you and me. A couple of days ago, Fox news had an article about how Congress was going to work longer hours. Yes, Nancy Popo (Pelosi) has dictated that Congress will work a 40 hour week.

Check out the article for yourself here:

Now lets get one thing straight. The more time Congress takes off, the less time they have to screw up your life and my life. The less time Congress spends in chambers, then the more freedom and liberty we get to keep for a longer period of time.

Do you actually think that the majority of laws that Congress has passed over the last 40 years has been to expand our liberty and freedom? If you do, then I have some really nice first class property in the Florida everglades you would be really smart to purchase. Then again maybe some "green" acres in Arizona or New Mexico would be more to your liking.

Now it can be argued that our Congress men and women have lost touch with reality when they get to Washington, D.C. Usually because Congress doesn't work as the rest of us do. Congress doesn't put in the hours that many of their very constituents do.

Well, that is not such a bad thing. Remember when Congress is in session, all they can do is come up with laws that limit freedom. So it is safe to say that when Congress is not in session, when Congress is away from the capitol, the more freedom we preserve.
