JPZ.  My poiint exactly.

When one branch does not get its way ( can we say crybaby) they thwart the Constitution and push through their agenda by any means necessary. I do acquiesce that the system to get ones agneda law is quit burdensome. I also think the whole process is that which keeps the US so stable a Republic. 

If you are hellbent on rapid change where you reside might I suggest moving to some land ruled by some iron fist who can both save the refuge and put you to the gallows at any whim they so choose.
