Comments on: Congresssional Term Limits- why we need them NOW! http://blog.mycountrymatters.com/2009/11/16/1486/ FOR PEOPLE WHO REALLY CARE ABOUT THE GREAT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND ITS FRIENDS Tue, 27 Jul 2010 02:53:48 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: jdb316 http://blog.mycountrymatters.com/2009/11/16/1486/#comment-645 jdb316 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 05:54:50 +0000 http://blog.mycountrymatters.com/2009/11/16/1486/#comment-645 I totally agree that Congress needs term limits. Reps and Senators on both sides of the aisle have to worry about getting re-elected and therefore favor short-sighted quick fixes that sound great to voters but ultimately don't fix a damn thing. Their focus becomes doing what they have to do to hold on to their power and not doing what they have to do to really fix this country. If Reps and Senators reach a point where they can't run for re-election, maybe then they'll have the you-know-whats to actually accomplish something meaningful and do things that, while risky, will REALLY fix the many problems in this country. http://phillyphoughts.wordpress.com I totally agree that Congress needs term limits.
