They must be asking the wrong people, 60% is too low.
They should have also asked how many think congress should be imprisoned.

In a new poll taken by NBC News and The Wall Street Journal, 800 adults were asked, "If there were a place on your ballot that allowed you to vote to defeat and replace every single member of Congress, including your own representative, would you do this, or not?"

The results were clear. 60% of those polled said "yes" they would get rid of every member of Congress and replace them with a fresh batch of politicians. Only 35% said they would not, while 5% weren't sure. The margin of error was +- 3.46%.

We want to know if you agree with this. Vote in our poll listed at the top of this story, and sound off your opinion on our FACEBOOK and Twitter page.

The poll on KHQ shows 97%

Congress is laughing all the way to the bank and could care less about disapproval ratings. They're happy you can't vote them out.

term limits; and the term should be 2 years......PERIOD and then you're OUT for good

That's fine, we will just replace ourselves with our friends, family and business partners. Same as it ever was.

Only a certain type wants to be in a position of power over others: sociopaths.
Keep voting, and that's what you'll get... sociopaths.

[Sparky]

And yet incumbent Congressmen are re-elected at a rate of 90-95%.

[zap]

I say vote them all out ! Starting with Pelosi ! Let's vote it in, and then we will read it?

really?

Nancy you are a retard!!!!!

[Horn]

Congress is no longer needed,

thanks to the internet we can all now Represent for our own law creation, that the President can than veto, and the judges strike down.

[Sandblaster]

I think that lifetime bureaucrats (who we never hear of) do far more damage to the country. Politicians are usually just Narcissistic. Don't know, that's fersur.

[Spectrism]

Did the poll say anything about the pretend president? I would be curious to see how many Amerikans would keep the ghetto scum in the executive tool seat.

[iOWNme]

term limits; and the term should be 2 years......PERIOD and then you're OUT for good

Ah yes......Thats our problem.....We need a new Master every 2 years who will boss us around and steal our money. UGH.

I dont know about you, but I OWN MYSELF. I am my own Master. If you try and elect new CRIMINALS every 2 years to run my life YOU ARE MY ENEMY.

you're right about one thing, you don't know about me, I'd rather see congress with a short limited cap on terms than being able to stay in for decades, if that makes me your enemy, so be it ::)

You and 300 million other individuals who IMAGINE that the gang of violent criminals in Washington have any legitimate right to rule whatsoever. But hey, at least your honest about it.

If the Bloods/Crips or the Mexican Mafia moved in your town and violently took over, do you think it would be useful to try and 'vote' a different guy in to their gang who might rob us less often? Of course not because you view those gangs as criminals with no legitimacy, and you know that voting isn't going to stop them from robbing you. But for some reason when it comes to the belief in 'Government' people are incapable of seeing the very same gang of violent criminals for what they are. They IMAGINE they have some control over this violent gang through psuedo religious ceremonies andother magical rituals.

The ONLY real difference between 'Government' and the Bloods/Crips exists between your ears.

There are some of us who actually want real freedom. How can I convince you to want it to?

[willie pete]

real freedom? I might suggest you move to a small deserted island so you might start your own private little society ::) , "belief in gov't"....why do you make assumptions about individuals you don't even know? That's a very Foolish thing to do

Psychiatrists Deeply Concerned For 5% Of Americans Who Approve Of Congress (http://www.theonion.com/articles/psychiatrists-deeply-concerned-for-5-of-americans,34163/)News in Brief (http://www.theonion.com/features/news-in-brief/) • Politics (http://www.theonion.com/channels/politics/) • politicians (http://www.theonion.com/channels/politicians/) • mental health (http://www.theonion.com/channels/mental-health/) • ISSUE 49•41 (http://www.theonion.com/issue/4941/) • Oct 9, 2013

WASHINGTON—Noting that the individuals in question may be extremely mentally disturbed or suffering from a serious psychological illness, the nation’s psychiatrists announced Wednesday that they are deeply concerned for the estimated 5 percent of Americans who were found in nationwide polls this week to approve of the U.S. Congress.

“With numerous members of Congress refusing to negotiate an end to the shutdown in the face of widespread federal furloughs and a looming deadline to avoid defaulting on government debt, we are extremely concerned for the mental health of those Americans who responded, ‘Yes, we think Congress is doing a good job,’” psychiatrist Dr. Donald Levin said in a press conference this morning, telling reporters that the estimated 15.5 million Americans who approve of Congress are likely “very troubled” citizens who may in fact be experiencing psychotic episodes or delusional thoughts.

“We’re not entirely sure who these people are or where they come from—perhaps they are psych ward patients, or unstable recluses living in remote huts on the outskirts of society—but what we do know is that they are extremely disconnected from reality and in need of immediate attention if they are not already receiving it. We need to find these people and get them the help they need before their illnesses get worse.”

Psychiatrists added that because a number of mental health services are currently furloughed, many respondents would just have to “sit tight and hang in there” until the shutdown is resolved.

I noticed you didn't answer my question regarding the Bloods/Crips? Can you take on the responsibility of being a human being and answer this moral question?

Your attempting to fix the world by electing psychopathic criminals to steal rape and kill decent innocent people........And I'm the fool?

This exact mentality has lead to the murder of over 250 MILLION innocent people in the last 100 years, it's called Democide. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democide) Yet you sit here and advocate the use of 'politics' which has been the most devastating immoral unjust anti-human authoritarian system ever devised.

Next you resort to the mind numbing Pavlovian response of "If you don't like it you can leave". Really? So in your mind Congress owns all of the dirt in this certain area, and they have the right to decide who can live here. Geez, talk about allowing others to be free.

And yes it is obvious you 'believe' in 'Government' or you wouldn't want to be able to vote them in and out. But since a man cannot delegate a right he doesn't not have, really what you are doing is asking men to commit crimes on your behalf but you shouldn't be held accountable for it. But you should receive the reward/benefit of their plunder of your fellow man. Again, I'm the foolish one?

Each individual owns themselves and cannot possibly be morally obligated to follow the scribbles of politicians, no matter how much you want them to.

Please consider the FACT that some of us want to be left alone, AND WE HAVE THE MORAL RIGHT TO. Can you live peacefully with others who disagree with you, or will you condone the violence of the STATE to make them bend to your will?

Well.......how does one respond to a diatribe like that? Lots of anger there, I didn't mean to step on a corn ;), seriously though it'd probably be advantageous for you to seek out some type of therapy, you could try here first http://www.mentalhealth.gov/ :D

Take as much time as you need. Maybe a detailed DAY IN THE LIFE OF SUI JURIS story.

If you're asking me, I'm not sure, maybe it was in one of your support groups? ;D ...and "what's" the argument? that the "bloods & crips" are the same as congress? I'd have to say on the face of things, the B&C's are a much more violent organization, I'm not sidestepping any argument, it's just I don't debate with a sick mind ::)

DAMN!

there goes my secure undisclosed location :)


as far as the Poll about members of CONgress - i'd like to see the poll repeated with 'hanging' and 'expulsion from the country' as options. & perhaps maybe 'Tasing'.


would you pay $1 to Tase your congress-critter ? that might be a way to help pay their salary !

[mick silver]

good one gun . can i taze more then one time if i have the money

[gunDriller]

good one gun . can i taze more then one time if i have the money

sure !

but it's probably not much fun to Tase them when they're unconscious.


i think what really scares (motivates) them is the prospect of losing their non-Obamacare health care.

Ah yes.....More character assassination, another trick used by people with no factual basis for their position.

So the Bloods/Crips have caused more theft, assault, violence and murder than 'Congress'?

Lets see here, Your beloved 'Congress' funded and stirred up the Bolshevick Revolution that killed 30 million people in The Soviet Union. As a matter of fact, they made sure the Russian Tsar and the Nationalist people of Russia were enslaved to Communism. Your loving 'Congress' made sure the Chiang Kai Shek was out gunned and out numbered to the Communist Regime of Mao Tse Tsung, literally handing over hundreds of millions of innocent lives to the Communist meat grinder, MURDERING 60 million people. Your honest 'Congress' made sure that WWII was fought in order to secure half the world from the 3rd largest mass murderer in history (Hitler), only to hand it over to the 2nd largest mass murderer in history (Stalin).

Vietnam, Cambodia, The Congo, most of Eastern Europe, Cuba, Romania, North Korea, Ethiopia, etc, ALL fell to 'Communism' created by the 'US Congress' through funding, military training, weapons and munitions stocking, food and medical supplies, and direct cash funding.

This is what I talk about when I battle the effects of STATISM in the mind of people. You IMAGINE that the Bloods/Crips are more violent because that is what you have been taught, not because of any rationality or logical thought process, but because of propaganda and indocturnation.

It is very easy to prove that the biggest violent gang in the history of the world is the 'US Congress', the group of men you support and advocate for. The group of men who have PLUNDERED the most wealth, TERRORIZED the most innocent, CAGED the most non violent, and MURDERED the most individual people in the history's of mankind, the group of men you cheer on and condone.

But let me guess, you support, condone and vote for 'Politicians'; But you are not PERSONALLY responsible for their actions?

What amount of rationality and logic will it take for you to see the reality of the situation we face? What amount of compassion and dignity will it take for you to stop advocating for your fellow man to be enslaved to your will? And finally what amount of love and humanity will it take for you to give up the CULT OF STATISM and take on the responsibility of being a human being?

I have literally answered this question, from YOU probably 10 times. At this point it is obvious you have no intent on listening to me, or having any sort of a rational debate. The only reason you continue to ask this nonsense, is because you think it will hurt my position to other members who are reading. Luckily i think of the members as smart and wise, not dumbed down and child like (As you do).

Your purpose is to destroy the critical thoughts that will end your beloved 'System'. And don't worry, it is coming.

To sum it up: The difference between me and you is not some special papers in legal land, not some secret legalities and rubbish, not a seal or stamp, or any other political nonsense that only further legitimizes the crooks. Nope.

It is a simple state of mind: I fully understand I own myself, and I do not IMAGINE any legitimacy whatsoever to any 'Authority' outside my own conscience. (Which is not real, cannot be real, and can never be real, no matter how much you wish them to be.) You however, perceive 'Authority' as something wise and righteous that has been taken over by evil greedy people. What you don't understand is that the twisted belief in 'Authority' CREATES the evil and greed in otherwise decent hardworking good natured people, LIKE YOU. And without this BELIEF SYSTEM most people would view criminals for what they are, instead of IMAGINING them to be 'Servants', while they boss them around and steal their money.
