The mindsets on the two parties are totally different.
Dems want to win at all costs. The ends justifies the means.
The Repukes are weak, feckless and prefer losing. They are fundamentally followers who cannot govern effectively.
The two cultures are deeply embedded and will never change. Both parties do share one trait in common however: they are both filled with professional liars.
NEver forget,too..they are exempt from B,O.Care.
Yep. McCain was a natural for this role, what with his own medical condition, no need to protect reelection, etc. He'll be a firece opponent of the people from here on out.
I have been warning my fellow Conservatives for years that McCain has never gotten over the fact that Conservatives did not back him over Bush in 2000 and pretty much stayed home in 2008(including myself) after years of siding with the likes of Teddy Kennedy, Hillary KKKlinton and other Liberals Democrats.
At the time she was the most popular Governor in the country and would have been a great candidate in her own rite in 2016.
Instead, by putting her into the national spotlight when she wasn't ready, she was ridiculed and made a national joke by the liberal establishment forcing her out of politics.
I don’t mean to be contrary, but voting out the RINOs won’t change the party. The moment a new freshman congressman/senator arrives in the DC Swamp the indoctrination process begins in earnest to convert them into a party hack. Trust me on this: there is a formalized effort and intensive “orientation” process designed to inculcate them into the ways of DC. The number one rule the Swamp teaches its new denizens is “to get along, go along”.
Our only hope is the emergence of a third party that represents conservatives. We almost did it with the Tea Party but didn’t quite reach critical mass unfortunately. But its still possible, especially after the latest GOP train wreck. People are waking up to this reality.
Publish the address of the SOB’s grave site when it dies.
I want to go and take a bodacious Obama on it.
Daily.
Thanks John. I held my nose, but voted for you for President...but you couldn’t hold your nose and vote for America on Obamacare? You will be remembered like Ted Kennedy is remembered. You had a chance to shine in your final moment...you failed and your legacy is now crap.
yep, this was just cover for the rest of the RINO’s so they can say when re-election comes up..
but.. but... I voted for REPEAL!
Not falling for it.
He needs to resign and be replaced by a Repub. He rarely crosses the aisle to vote with the Repubs.
Very sad that with months left he is still attempting to create some sort of legacy. IF he were an accomplished legislator he would already be satisfied with his legacy and gracefully step aside, but no.
No 80 year old person with a cancerous tumor in the frontal lobe of their brain and a history of doing and saying bazar things to get attention and refers to himself as being a maverick be in a position to make decisions which affect of people. Probably heavily medicated.
I doubt it’s the final F you from that walking POS!
I’ll say it and mean it....
I wish brain cancer on him. Oh, wait....
MIA's and POW's. He stopped every effort to find out what happened to them, if any were still being held, etc. He was a one man Senate obstruction for twenty years. I wonder what he was trying to hide.
You are assuming that the line is where they say it is; that the Republican Party leadership is honest about their real agenda.
The Republican Party leadership's real role is to PRETEND to oppose the Democrats, while undermining any actual opposition. As long as they convincingly play their ACTUAL role in the kabuki drama, then they will be rewarded with money and personal power, and the press will ignore their mistresses, drugs, and corruption.
It's best to ignore what politicians say, and watch what they do, and assume that they are competently carrying out their real agendas.
Why do people keep saying that congress is “exempt” from Obamacare? By law members of congress are required to buy their insurance on the Obamacare exchanges.
Exactly , the Uniparty asked the untouchable victim McCain to kill the bill .
It was a Mitchy Poo set up from the start .
Pure Theater.
