In recognition that behavior in both houses of Congress (Republican AND Democrat) has degraded to childishness resembling a cross between a daycare for spoiled rich brats and a reform school for power-hungry toddlers, we hereby petition the Obama Adminstration to appoint a Cabinet-level position whose sole responsiblity would be to babysit the House and the Senate. Duties of this position would include encouraging the "children" to: play nice with each other, work together on projects, negotiate compromises with other children when there are differences of opinion/agenda, ensure that all criticism is constructive, use good manners, not become involved in sex scandals, and most important, NOT TO DESTROY THE PLACE when the "parents"--WE THE PEOPLE--aren't around to supervise and punish.
