Actually it's not. Poll numbers tell you what the American people think and want.

What people want and what they need are polar opposites. People want "free" stuff that our children will pay for at a later time.

Those that vote R want less spending. Those that vote D want more spending.

Your congress is elected to do the will of the people who vote for them. I don't see why you didn't learn this stuff in 9th grade civics.

AKA democracy which is a scourge on this country.

This country is not a democracy. It's a constitutional republic where the majority are not allowed to run roughshod all over the minority and suppress their rights.

Tea partiers and libertarians want less gov't, Obama has shown nothing indicating he supports that and you call them obstructionists?

Your gun control law couldn't even pass the democratic held Senate. Americans hate gun control. Polls don't tell you what people want because they can be easily skewed to promote an agenda, whether it be vague questions or sample location. Letters to Congressmen tell them what we think
