Lame Duck


If there is something that doesn't make sense to me about mid-term elections, it is the fact that regardless of who was elected by the people. The congress members who lost their seats still have the chance to pass pretty much whatever they want during the lame duck session. There should be no lame duck session! If the people voted members out, they obviously lost their seats for a reason, and they have no right to continue to legislate against the will of the American people. One of two things needs to happen. Either the voting date needs to be changed, or the last session of congress needs to be held before the elections. We did not vote to continue to see our will violated. We voted to change what is being done immediately, and that, is exactly what should be done. Now, not after the "Lame duck session".
