I would like a House that functions

Sometimes nothing getting done is better than something getting done. This can apply to every part of our lives, including government. I remember once a market analyst named Tom Dorsey said "sometimes the best trade is the one you never make"

A hobbled government is a good government

and an opposing party that is rational.

Amen to that!!! Hopefully the democrats will come down off of their contact high from the 2008 election and start acting like adults

being a left winger, you must define "function"

we already know what "compromise" and "sacrifice" means to a left winger

If you are faced with a situation where you can't get a raise (I know, silly question for you), and you are going further into debt what do you do? The people are saying "no raise!"

Yes, Moonbeam, the House of Representatives represents the people........by definition!
