Yeah, they do. The GOP elite knows what's best and the base should just go home and shut up. Fine, Trent - we'll do just that as we watch the GOP collapse on Election Night next year. We'll see just how much you appreciate it when the Democrats have a filibuster proof majority. The one you wanted to get but you screwed up because you couldn't deliver on the conservative agenda. Which you don't deserve because you are determined to deliver the country to the Democrats forever. With friends like you, conservatives don't need enemies.

The righteous anger expressed on this board is sadly naive, as your comment indicates. Lott, et al could care less whether the GOP becomes a permanent minority; they were never interested in enacting a conservative agenda.

They, like everyone else who has an IQ over 100, knows damn well what will happen if amnesty passes. There will be a mad scramble to feather one's own nest, ensure adequate asset protection, and rape the system till it hurts as the smartest prepare their exit strategies.

It’s time for a big Change in Washington. These patronizing slobs have to go
