Article V
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.

The only message I want to send to Congress, any of them, is "stop acting like the other party is The Enemy. When elephants (and donkeys) fight, it is the grass that suffers. Chill out and start at least pretending to try to get something accomplished for a change."
So yeah, you're gonna have to tell me what kind of change we're pushing for here. And I'm not too smart about politics, so use small words.

1984 was better. Animal Farm was just a repeat of 1984, with a different skin. He should have used Animal Farm to say something new instead of the same thing.
I'm not playing devil's advocate. I'm asking you what the goal is. If there's a problem, how are we going to fix it?
In this case, what message are you wanting to push to Congress?

Oh come on! Surely you can think of something more interesting to call me. "Idiot" is so... generic. It's like the F word - everybody uses it so much that it has lost all punch.
Couldn't you at least stretch to "ignoramus" or something? It's not a personalized insult, but it would be better than the nothing that "idiot" is.
