(CNSNews.com) – Most people prefer lice, cockroaches and colonoscopies to Congress, according to a new national poll released Tuesday.

Congress only has a nine percent favorability rating, according to the latest national poll by Public Policy Polling, which tested the popularity of Congress against 26 different things, including brussel sprouts, root canals, and traffic jams.

“We all know Congress is unpopular,” said Dean Debnam, president of Public Policy Polling. “But the fact that voters like it even less than cockroaches, lice, and Genghis

Khan really shows how far its esteem has fallen with the American public over the last few weeks.”

9% approval but yet the cockroaches still get re-elected.

I guess the ministry of propaganda (MSM) isnt batting for them, the way they are for the national community organizer.

They are mostly white men and are canon fodder for the left, with a dictator a congress is only for show anyway.

Looking on the bright side, at least they rated higher than a few things, very few. I wonder what the comparitive ratings would have been if they specifically named Reid and Pelosi and Boehner.

On the bright side, Congress ranked higher than gonorrhea (53-28), the ebola virus (53-25), communism (57-23), meth labs (60-21) and playground bullies (43-38). It also scored higher among voters than telemarketers (45-35), the Kardashians (49-36), Lindsay Lohan (45-41), Fidel Castro (54-32) and North Korea (61-26).
Congress also outranked former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, who had an extramarital affair and fathered a child out of wedlock while his wife, Elizabeth Edwards was dying from cancer (45 to 29).

I think lice and cockroaches are braver, they may scurry away and hide when the lights come on but at least they had the guts to come out in the first place.
