The GOP remains SILENT! SILENT! Notice not to much talk about repealing zerocare either.
Now, for sure, many a Republicans is so tied to the way things have always been they can't even imagine ever staying in the majority and so act like cowards. They even point to the brief Republican majorities of the last few elections as proof. The problem is, if you give up when you have an alternative to giving up, of course you can't handle being in the majority, you can only frustrate the Hell out of people.
I talk to some friends who seem to keep up with Republicans in the House and there's a lot of new folks who are really pissed off over there being no repeal of Obamacare already out of the House and dying in the Senate. The more Conservative House folks who aren't new feel the same way but there's enough others people who are against doing anything until after the election in hopes of having control of the Senate by then that those who want to do it admit they might not get it out of the House without them onboard. So, leadership thinks trying and not even getting something out of the House would be worse than not trying. That's what I hear at least.
Personally, I think they owe us at least trying to send a repeal out of the House so the azzholes who won't go along with that can be voted out right along with the democrats but how likely is that to happen the way things run in any organization not just the political ones? Republicans better wake up because people in this country are just dumb enough to go for a third party again because they're ticked off which would give the democrats a majority again and I'm not sure they'd ever have another election. They were absolutely shocked to find out that their own propaganda was wrong and that everyone isn't tickled to death with them. Knowing that, I doubt they care about ever having elections if they're the majority across the board again. The elder fascists have worked to get one party rule for their entire lives and they're seeing it slip away while they don't have many years left in this world. So, wounded animals are dangerous.
Just sort thinking out loud, I guess, but you're exactly right they're as quiet as little Church Mice and we know they're up to something, for the most part probably up to no good. I trust Jim DeMint, and Marines, everyone else can pay cash, even family, is the way I see it.
