Things to do in Congress when you're Dead

What happened to all those hearings, investigations, summons, bills and dramatic demonstrations of power we were expecting? Impeachment turns out to be like a mustard burp. Momentarily tangy then lost in the air.

How did this Become this?
When it comes to rolling over for Bush, this Congress has that playing dead routine topped.
I gave seen dogs lie down to bark with more energy than this Congress.
Allowing they must be in the midst of their summer doldrums,
where's the alternative energy for this energy crisis?

At first it looked like all the new blood being taught to roll over by the old hands was only getting halfway there, but now that they have been watching our forefathers spinning in their graves for a while they are beginning to get the playing dead routine down pat.
We design legislation to force the President to veto his own supplimental funding, then run for the hills when he falls for the trap and actually does it.
What can we bloggers do about that.
1.) Become missionaries. Find a conservative and help save their soul.
Don't settle for substitutions. Talk to the people you stood out there and held signs in the rain for, gave money to, manned phone banks, and canvassed and voted for. Re-educate them until they holler "Halleluyah! Praise Al I'm saved". The meaning of life is found in fighting for alternative energy and against peak oil and global warming.
2.) Reject politics, become a practicing soliphisant and substitute your own reality. Convince yourself that the war will end and the troops will come home eventually...
3.) Watch Ice Road Truckers on the Discovery channel, convince yourself that rather than global warming, on the contrary hell has frozen over and thats why this summer Congress will be moving at the pace of mollasses flowing uphill in January
4.) Discuse in comments
