This is a very long article, but finally reading it all, I really recommend it. In the past, Taibbi's articles were often twice as long as they need to be because they were redundant. But here, he's really not. This is more like a very concise book. It's all argument. He really does make a serious case that this is the worst congress in American history, which is no mean feat. And his talent for insult and image is just used to make it fun to read.

Recommended for printing out and reading on the subway or in the bathroom.
