Should Congress be passing more laws giving people more opportunity to break such laws and subsequently NOT BE INCARCERATED for breaking them OR should Congress be repealing laws so that cutesy mixed race dysfunctional people who are unable to follow simple basic rules of civil order can be left alone in their abject poverty incapable of accessing available resources that might possibly better the living conditions for themselves and their kids?<br><br>Oops...there I go again writing much more than you seem to be capable of comprehending, so let me make it much simpler for you.<br><br>TOM - DO YOU AGREE WITH JOHN BOEHNER THAT CONGRESS SHOULD BE JUDGED ON THE HOW MANY LAWS ARE REPEALED???
