Quote by Will Rogers
This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer.
Summary
This quote suggests that when Congress is in session, the functioning of the country becomes as chaotic and unpredictable as when a baby holds a hammer. It implies that congressional actions result in a sense of disorder, as a baby wielding a tool meant for adults would likely create mess and potentially dangerous situations. The quote may reflect a frustration towards the perceived inefficiency or lack of direction associated with the legislative process, drawing a humorous analogy to highlight the perceived lack of competence in decision-making.
