Turncoats and cowards.

Hit them hard! and Hit the D’s in Reds states harder!

Great post...Love the pics and art!
I would love to see that moron King from New York gone. He is a menace to society.
.... Keep introducing and reintroducing bills to keep various portions of government open that are affecting the public the most. When the Obama administration keeps denying their passage then the GOP can keep going to the media and accuse this administration of not caring for the people of this nation. Keep doing this over and over and it will gain the attention of at least a few out there.
So a ‘clean’ bill is giving the other party everything it wants. Why are we dealing with one party rule? Our leadership is broken.
Name and Shame them. If I find their twitter addy’s, I’ll post.
Have you seen this?
King: 30 to 40 GOP lawmakers refuse to admit legitimacy of Obama’s presidency
Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) said Tuesday that there are about 30 to 40 Republicans in Congress who refuse to recognize the legitimacy of Obama’s presidency and are seeking to erase everything that’s happened during his administration.
I think the number who cave is gonna only get bigger if the gov’t is shut down for several days or more. I definitely see only a handful at most sticking it out if it lasts a week or more.
Your "business", you POS traitor, is NOT to turn the U.S. into a full-blown Commie dictatorship! FUJR!
Sounds like a good idea to me.
Traitors.
Somebody definitely has a file on him.
There will be more...
