This is highly relevant to our discussion of the two Congresses and more.

Plus, the article ends on a hopeful note:
"Congress is still necessary to save America, and cynics aren't helping
Discouragement is for wimps.
We aren't going to change the Constitution, so we need to make the system we have work. We are still, despite our shortcomings, the most successful experiment in self-government in history. Our greatest strength is our ability to bounce back from mistakes like we are making today. Get over your nostalgia: Congress has never been more than a sausage factory. The point here isn't to make us something we're not. The point is to get us to make sausage again. But for that to happen, the people have to rise up and demand better."
