Why is it nobody ever blames the Democratic majority of Congress.

Because they have only had the majority for one year and in the senate especially, they have been blocked by the new Republican Minority with a record number of filibusters. The very thing they railed on Democrats for when the roles were reversed. Like I said, they're all to blame.

While I believe in term limits for Congress, I feel Americans are doing a poor job of using the term limit already offered them: The Ballot. Want to send a message to Washington? Lay aside which party you like and vote out the incumbent, even if you like him better than his opposition. 435 new Representatives. 1/3 of the Senate replaced. If all the Congressional districts did that in November the "new" Congress would be forced to step in line and do a better job serving the people who put them there.
