But these clarion calls from "conservative" Republican representatives may do them some good with the base back home, but have absolutely no effect on reality at all.
OK, Stockman ain't too bad,but he knows damn well no one is "arresting" anyobody. Most of this stuff is an hypocritical attempt, IMNVHO, to co-opt the Tea Party, (whatever TF the "Tea Party" is.)
If we can turn out the vote this fall, doubtless the Republicans will take the House and the Senate. Hurrah. Hurrah! (and BFD) Where's the Leader, where's the Program, where's the Plan to implement it?
Without a leader, a program, and a plan, a contrary Congress might make us all feel good, but unfortunately it will make Team Obama feel even better.
Make that an “allegedly contrary” Congress. If the GOPe runs true to form, they will gladly use their new-found majority not to get things which need to be done accomplished, but to increase their cut of the swag and to further safeguard the interests of their major contributors.
