And when they don't, when the elected refuse to do what they were elected to do, this happens:

Just 24% give the president favorable ratings of his performance in handling the war in Iraq, but confidence in Congress is significantly worse – only 3% give Congress positive marks for how it has handled the war. This lack of confidence in Congress cuts across all ideologies. Democrats – some of whom had hoped the now Democrat-led Congress would bring an end to the war in Iraq – expressed overwhelming displeasure with how Congress has handled the war, with 94% giving Congress a negative rating in its handling specifically of that issue.

Come on, ya buncha idiots, do your job!

And the guy who did it calls himself a "reporter", and that this stunt was some kind of exposé or something. What a fucking idiot.
