Yep, Trayvon and Snowdan have been the focus..and the media has sucked everyone into their cause....
But I do not believe the Republicans care to raise a finger to object....perhaps ‘more’ than the Democrates pushing...the distraction is equally as much “for” the Republicans as nobody’s holding their feet to the fire!
This is truly getting very old!
Unfortunately, RepublicN leadership in both the Senate and the House is all a out getting along and preserving their positions. They happily went along with the Democrats in their demonization of the Tea Party because of the perceived threat that it posed to their hegemony over the moderate-right. I find it interesting that Boehner had no serious Democrat challenger in the last election. Obviously, the Democrats understand that he is someone with whom they can work.
And, sadly, many of our so-called Conservatives also would sell us out if they had a chance. Look at Trey Gowdy and his support for meaty for illegal aliens as a prime example.
