To congress

To inexplicably debate inane problems at the expense of fixing much larger issues; hypocritically exort others to do things one would not do oneself

To forgo long term solutions in favor of more politically expedient solutions; disregard facts due to political morass

First used by Ezra Klein
Jimmy congressed everything up last night when he kept talking. We never even left the house.

We were about to figure out where to go to dinner and then Tom had to congress it all up.

congresscritter

A congresswoman or congressman: an elected official who serves in the House of Representatives, the lower house of the United States Congress. "Congresscritters" can also, loosely, include U.S. Senators. The term is gender-neutral, and also attempts to remove these elected representatives from their pedestals.
"Writing to your congresscritters about an issue may seem pointless, but when enough people -- you and your friends and their friends and THEIR friends -- make their voices heard, the congresscritters will realize that their chances of reelection ARE affected by doing the right thing."

immaculate congestion

When traffic is backed up for miles on a highway, crawling along -- and then suddenly everyone returns to normal high speeds without passing an accident, stalled car, or road construction.
We spent 45 minutes bumper-to-bumper for no reason?!? It must be immaculate congestion.

Where lobbyists go to buy their laws.
Big Corporation: Hmm this toxic waste dumping regulation seems to be affecting our business.
