America To 112th Congress: Drop Dead

By Sniffles

Our headline may be a startling way to begin the New Year, but we feel no compunction to be any more civil to Republicans than Republicans are to us. (Yep, for the second time, a Republican official has told a Democratic one to go eff himself. So much for restoring civility to Washington.)

But Harry Reid is not the only American whom Republicans have insulted. Last night the loathsome 112th Congress adjourned without voting on the relief package that millions of Hurricane Sandy victims are depending on. (More proof that the GOP doesn't give a damn about people unless they're in the womb. And if you think Chris Christie and Andrew Cuomo are mad, just check out Peter King.)

What an ignominious end to a revolting Congress. We cats have seen some bad behavior before — a bunch of adulterers impeaching a President for cheating on his wife comes to mind — but this group of teabagging GOP head-butters really takes the cake.

Lest you doubt it, here are some interesting facts: The 112th Congress passed a paltry 219 bills. The 111th passed 383. Even the infamous "do-nothing Republican Congress" passed 906!

Why do we put government in the hands of people who don't believe in it? We cats HISS — and dump our dirty litter boxes on John Boehner's head.
