Single-issue bills should be the rule. Yes, it would slow things down - but is that a bad thing?? No. Only the most important bills would get voted on, and the rest of the fluff would just die. Which is exactly what should happen.

Thank Q for the update!
Line-item-veto. It has always been the answer and ignored.
I read something the other day that the Supreme Court made it illegal for the president to line item veto
EVERY. BILL. SHOULD. BE. CLEAN.
Downsize DC has been leading the choir on this since 2005: (Jim Babka) One Subject at a Time: Stop the Annual Spring Spending Spree
Quotes of the Day:
“Designating war spending as an unforeseen emergency year after year is a farce that is designed to help politicians avoid hard budget choices.” Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Texas)
“I do not believe we can continue to bring up bills under the justification of emergency legislation that violate the spirit if not the letter of PAYGO (pay as you go).” – Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-VA)
Every year, Congress considers “emergency” funding for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and then loads the bill with pork and unrelated legislation – such as the union legislation we wrote about yesterday.
Then they cover for their fiscal recklessness by claiming opponents don’t “support the troops.” This happens EVERY year.
And in addition to the $84 billion (or more) bill, the House is also considering a separate “emergency” $200 billion so-called “jobs” bill with several unrelated provisions.
The good news, however, is that some in the majority party are concerned about how these bills will add to the deficit.
Let’s encourage them to fight! Tell Congress to oppose these bills and pass DownsizeDC.org’s One Subject At A Time Act (OSTA) instead.
Raise? No raises for anyone, many of these people are career criminals that deserve to be picking up litter on highways. Give the American people their raises among tons of more wasted $$$.
Enough is right catturd. Well said my brother
ENOUGH!!!

The grifting and money laundering must end now.
Too many of us are hurting and have been for too long.
I'm thankful I'm not living in a tent in WNC
It's despicable how they're treating our kin - the very fabric of USA
If a bill takes more than 10 pages to fully explain, it's bullshit and/or you need an editor.
"You have to pass it to find out what's in it" hee hee!
Not amused biatch!
