Congressional Approval Rating - 10%

And that still seems high to me (from Rasmussen):
Voter unhappiness with Congress has reached the highest level ever recorded by Rasmussen Reports as 71% now say the legislature is doing a poor job.

That’s up ten points from the previous high of 61% reached a month ago.

Only 10% of voters say Congress is doing a good or excellent job.

Nearly half of Democratic voters (48%) now give Congress a poor rating, up 17 points since January. The vast majority of Republicans and voters not affiliated with either party also give Congress poor ratings.

The best week Congress has had in years was the week they were shut down by the blizzard. Maybe they should all just go home for awhile.

On February 12, 2010, Obama signed House Joint Resolution 45, which contained a provision reinstating statutory PAYGO rules. "TWELVE DAYS" later the Senate, in order to pass the 15 billion jobs bill voted to waive this provision. And members of congress say the american people are stupid? Arrogant greed deserves more than a 10% approval rating. It deserves tar and feathers and a ride out of town on a rail.

Papa B, you were mild in your comments "it deserves tar/feathers and a ride out of town on a rail".
In years past many of these jerks in congress would be hanging from a tall oak tree.
