Anyone who votes for the GOP establishment needs to be hung along side obozo for theft from the American people.
DEPOPULATE criminals/socialists/totalitarians/RINOS (Republicans Implementing Nunaces Of Socialism) from the body politic.
DEFUND their collectives, foreign and domestic.
Above all, if you wish to be strong, begin by rooting out every particle of socialism that may have crept into your legislation. This will be no light task. - Frederic Bastiat 1801-1850
Some of the damage they have done...

0failure took office... our debt was $10 trillion
it’s now $15.6 trillion and expected to hit $16 trillion before november
GWBush took office and the debt was $6 trillion...
therefore, he jacked up the debt by $4 trillion in 8 years
it also means that 0failure has overseen, in just THREE(3) years, a debt increase equal to the entire debt produced in the first 230 years of the country
No veto needed, just do the Nancy Reagan approach “Just say NO” to the continuing resolution and make the Senate pass a budget.
The same idiots who bought into the propaganda piece on how Obama actually slowed the growth of spending, will buy into this piece of trash. By posting without examining, we help the MSM build the case that Dims are more fiscally conservative. This piece is a natural follow-up to the one about Obama’s slow spending growth - all pre-election propaganda and they need to formulate the lies early enough to make them “common knowledge” by Nov.
Not so fast to put this on the backs of the GOP
Remember the “debt crisis” of 2011?
Remember all the GOP finagling with Harry Reid and obama to tie the debt increase to spending cuts? Remember the threat of our debt being downgraded without a deal?
Remember obama and democrat threats (not bluffs) to shut down the US government starting with social security, MEDICARE, and military pay - if the first black president didn’t get his allowance increased by a properly civil GOP?
So now it is “the GOP House” that ran up the debt in the past 15 months?
I don’t think so
Remember this?

Has any house-approved budget been enacted since the GOP took over?
So when the dems controlled Congress and Bush was president, spending was his fault. But when the reps have the house under Obama and spending is out of control it’s the reps fault. Got it.
The Republican’s only option has been to shut down the government.
That is nothing more than political suicide, and the leadership knows it.
They have done what they could to slow the Dems march to socialism...they cannot stop it. That is why Obama, and his Dem minions, have to be voted out this year!
The massive increases in spending and the deficit remain the fault of Pelosi, Obama, and Reid. They increased the baseline in 2008, and though the Republicans have stopped anything on the scale of another Porkulus, they are nearly powerless to roll back the day to day spending.
They have tried and been blocked by the Senate in every instance!
This topic has undergone a contentious discussion on a previous FR thread:

I’ll repeat my take: stratospheric deficits were baked into the system with the first Pelosi/Reed/Obama budget, and in a stroke of perverse brilliance, the donkeys have set up a system in which the GOP House either a) gets blamed for continued massive deficit spending or b) gets blamed for a government shutdown that is Obama’s only route to reelection (short of reselling his soul to the devil). As long as the dem’s control the Senate, those are the only options.
And there is no lack of conservatives and FReepers willing to get sucked in by this ploy of the donkey party.
The debt problem lies squarely at the feet of the American people and it will be carried on their shoulders and taken out of their hides.
Misleading - The Senate is under Harry Reid, Democrat.
The bottom line is that no budget can be passed, because Harry Reid in the senate refuses to permit budget hearings, so the House is unable to pass a budget either.
Instead, Reid demands that the House either pass perpetual continuing resolutions to fund the government “at current levels”, or be blamed for “shutting down the government”. This has gone on for the *entire* Obama administration.
This is a win-win as far as the Democrats are concerned, the continuation of the last bloated budget created years ago.
And the Republicans know that if they refuse, the MSM will savage them, just like it did during the Clinton administration. So they are between a rock and a hard place.
