Aye!
For the average American who is sitting on the fence...barely paying attention to all this...it should give them PAUSE when they think: "What is SO important that an ENTIRE party is willing to commit political suicide over one issue?"
Think about it.We know what the answer is: POWER. The average joe 6 pack needs to think about it. Because in a RATIONAL world...that just doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense to ruin one's political career and to vote opposite of your constituency...UNLESS YOU HAVE BIGGER PLANS.
And that's my point. This ought to scare people that these guys aren't scared...
And when it comes to amnesty...cap and trade...etc...it REALLY ought to scare people that they don't care what the people say.
Because here is the secret...its not arrogance (OK...it is to an extent...but that isn't the main reason)...its something more sinister.
