That's easy: it's because the GOP is no longer a right-of-center / small-government / pro-individual liberty political party. They have moved left as the Dims move even further left.
That is the easy answer ;)
I am wondering how in the world they justify it. Do they think that ppl wont read it? Do they care what anyone thinks? Are they afraid of Obama and his ilk? Are they so secure in their offices that they think they couldn’t possibly be voted out? Do they think that if they keep going left that they can redefine the party and enjoy the safety of not being a dime’s worth of difference?
I am curious! I don’t know many of the Republicans who voted for it. Perhaps ppl from their states can speak to their reasoning, as they know them better.
This is just insane.
