#2 Eleven percent of Americans say they have a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in Congress...

So from this we can assume that 11% of Americans are deaf, dumb and blind?

#5 ..not to forget the real culture of thieves who's representatives are indeed robbing the rest of the country to service their clan at the expense of everyone else.

#6 The real poll will be in Nov. when we can actually measure the percentage of incumbents running for re-election who do get re-elected. I expect it will be much higher than 11%.
We've gone from a republic to idiocracy in a little over 200 years.

#7 11%, I'm wondering how it can be that high?

#8 This is unfair to Congress: the poll compares Congress to the military, the police, church and so forth. I mean, comparing Harry Reid to General Petraeus: how fair is that?

A more realistic poll would compare Congress to Al Qaeda, Mara Salvatrucha, crack dealers, the Russian mob, Bernie Madoff, and the UN. Congress would still come in dead last, but the numbers would be much less one-sided.
