I think if you look at yesterday's New York Times poll, particularly when you judge Democrats in Congress versus the Republicans in Congress, people put a little more faith, or even a little more than a little more faith in the Democrats in Congress.

Erosion of faith and trust in government - that is the real problem that confronts us.

Enough is enough. Enough of the waste. Enough of the spending. Enough of the debt. Enough of the arrogance in Washington, D.C.

I've had a growing conviction that Congress is not operating as it should. There is much too much partisanship and not enough progress.

It's not just that individuals have lost faith in the integrity of their leaders, it's that they no longer believe society's most powerful institutions are acting in their interests.

I don't know if the average person really has faith in Washington anymore.

Enough to using Texas as a political laboratory for testing far-right ideas. Enough to using Texas as a workshop for fattening the wallets of their special interest friends and supporters. And enough of politicians listening only to each other, rather than real Texans.

How many times will this Congress waste time on an issue that a majority of Americans do not want?

Working Americans who believe in our country and who believe in our Constitution are saying, 'Enough is enough!'

You can see how dysfunctional this Congress is.
