Will RogersIf pro is the opposite of con, what is the opposite of Congress?
About This Quote
The word "Congress" usually refers to the U.S. Congress. However, in this quote, "pro" is not the same as "con." (It's sometimes written as "pro con," which is a little easier.) The opposite of Congress is "anti-Congress." By definition, Congress is made up of people who are pro-something. Anti-Congress means opposing something. -- The New York Times
