Kudos

So I'm reading this article from the Wall Street Journal about the failure of the Democratic Congress to get anything done:
Unfinished work is piling up -- legislation to aid borrowers affected by the housing mess, rescue millions of middle-class families from a big tax increase and put stricter gas-mileage limits on the auto industry. Two months into the new fiscal year, Democrats are still scrambling just to keep the government open.

...Democrats are hoping to get a boost by enacting the tougher auto-mileage standards before Christmas, but other matters, such as a farm bill to continue government price supports, are likely to wait for the new year.
So, let's see -- no bailout of greedy stupid borrowers, no silly mandates for the auto industry and no farm subsidies -- and people say gridlock is a bad thing? Hey Dems, keep up the good work!
