So, with the 109th congress set to exit capital hill soon, what exactly have they accomplished in their 3 day work week? Well, I must admit that a 3-4 day work week with a $165,000 yearly salary sounds awfully good. Hell, I would work 7 days a week for $165,000.  

So, what does the 110th term expect to do? Well, Pelosi has her first 100 hour plan in which she said:

• We will start by cleaning up Congress, breaking the link between lobbyists and legislation and commit to pay-as-you-go, no new deficit spending.
• We will make our nation safer and we will begin by implementing the recommendations of the independent, bipartisan 9/11 Commission.
• We will make our economy fairer, and we will begin by raising the minimum wage. We will not pass a pay raise for Congress until there is an increase in the minimum wage.
• We will make health care more affordable for all Americans, and we will begin by fixing the Medicare prescription drug program, putting seniors first by negotiating lower drug prices. We will also promote stem cell research to offer real hope to the millions of American families who suffer from devastating diseases.
• We will broaden college opportunity, and we will begin by cutting interest rates for student loans in half.
• We will energize America by achieving energy independence, and we will begin by rolling back the multi-billion dollar subsidies for Big Oil.
• We will guarantee a dignified retirement, and we will begin by fighting any attempt to privatize Social Security.

Well, we will in due time see if this congress is any better than the last. What are your thoughts?
