I edited the post to reflect the extension.

The last two years has to be the most worthless, do nothing Congress since the nation was founded. I certainly hope that there are no major disasters this year, because Congress will not respond, as New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut just found out. A tornado outbreak in the Republican heartland will see no help from Congress, and I expect the same lack of response if we have a bad hurricane season in 2013.
