Tyrany: New Congress Not Reading Bills or Writing Them!!

Q: Can we impeach congress for failure to do their job?
A: The Patriot Act, for example, weighed in at 340 pages.
A: the Global Warming bill is 1200 pages.
A: the Waxman-Markey Cap-and-Trade Bill about 1,200 pages long.
A: “No LEGISLATION without representation,” they state on their campaign website. “We hold this truth to be self-evident, that those in Congress who vote on legislation they have not read, have not represented their constituents. They have misrepresented them.”

A: At the start of each new Congress, the entire House of Representatives and one-third of the Senate are sworn into office. This oath-taking dates to 1789, the first Congress; however, the current oath was fashioned in the 1860s, by Civil War-era members of Congress.
A: Congressional oath they swore to follow after election day requires they represent us in the legislative process by protecting each bill as preserving our constitution. In Congress, all members take the same oath of office when they begin a new term. The Vice President usually administers the oath to senators, and the Speaker of the House administers the oath to representatives: http://www.answers.com/topic/oath-of-office 7/10/2009 11:17 AM

I, [member's name], do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.
