I do agree that we need more Hawks in congress instead of these professional politicians. I also firmly believe in term limits and very limited retirement benefits for these clowns, err, elected representatives of the people.

There have always been term limits. It's called "vote for the other person." We as an electorate have been too lazy or apathetic to use the power we have. I can't remember who it was, but one congressperson was quoted that s/he would "fight with all my power for term limits, even it it takes me 20 years to get them enacted."
No Congress is ever going to put limits of any kind on itself. After all, when was the last time they denied themselves a pay raise?
