Those are not term limits. Those are the definition of a term. The only one that has a term limit is president and that is two terms. All the others can serve an unlimited number of terms.

I was not in favor of term limits for a long time. I felt that the voters should be able to choose whoever they like to represent them. It was after I learned about the trickery used by members of Congress and the various ploys they use to avoid votes and to allow members to vote one way even though they feel another way that I came to the conclusion that term limits are necessary.

Congress is not doing what most people think they are doing. None of it is real. It is all smoke and mirrors designed to keep those who play "the game" in power. As long as a member of Congress goes along with the leadership he will get the support to keep getting re-elected. Sometimes even party lines are crossed to keep someone who will upset the apple cart from getting elected.

They have us all fooled.
