They don't want to hear their own constituents, they won't listen to reasons, and they refuse to do their jobs (their oaths to their office).
That assumes that the Republicans are an OPPOSITION party rather than the socialist lite "me too" party that they've become since Ronald Reagan was first elected. Democrats are statists in the tradition of Stalin. Republicans are statists in the tradition of Mussolini. Neither party can be conceive of lessening the power of government.
Even on FR - supposedly a conservative forum - I saw posters who were defending DFACS yesterday. In a conservative world, no such agency would even exist.
Compromise is the only thing the Republicans know how to do. It’s the “go along to get along” party and compromise is their credo.
Even if they have a 100% chance of passing any bill, they will compromise at least 50% of it away.
It’s time to take out the trash or we will be in it by 2014.
I read yesterday that the majority approved. I’m confused. And it doesn’t matter anyway. Obama doesn’t need anyone’s approval to do anything, especially congress.
Dear Sen. Ayotte,
We voted for you, because we thought you understood the Constitution and the principles of individual responsibility and self government.
It is becoming apparent to us that you don’t even understand this very simple phrase, “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
No other right enumerated in the Bill of Rights has so strict a protection as to forbid even any encroachments.
Any and all “gun control” laws are infringements on the God-given right to self-defense against criminals and tyrants.
Besides, we already have thousands of “gun control” laws. How’s that working out?
Ask your Democrat colleagues how many infringements they would tolerate on their illusory “right” to prenatal and neonatal infanticide.
Rest assured, that we will work vigorously against your reelection if you vote for any “gun control” legislation. If we’re going to lose our rights to the totalitarian statists, may as well lose them all at once.
There’s certainly no reason for the Repubs to capitulate, but we all know capitulate is what they’ll do.... because they do it so well.
The Republicans will compromise because they have a disdain for the annoying American people.
” - - - 45 percent said they approve - - -”
Isn’t it interesting that ALL of the Liberal Agenda Media opinions polls never fall below 40 % approval of what Commie Obama wants to do to “FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?”
