Lets face it. They are all the same but operating under different names just to give the ignorant peons a feeling of 2 party government. This has been going on since about the time of Teddy Roosevelt and has only been increasing in intensity and obviousness since the Marxists finally took over.

so what did we get in 4+ years from the republicans? NOTHING! If they truly believe we should step aside and let obamacare collapse on themselves, I got a better idea, lets not vote any gop into offfice. That will speed it up the collapse

Why not? Boehner will do ANYTHING it takes to keep from being kicked back to the wrong side of the tracks.

I would be surprised not in the least to hear Bohner had proposed nationalizing all retirement savings accounts to give to the Liberals to spend on the country’s takers.

Bonehead, Cantor and McConnell wave the white flag better and more
often than anybody I can recall. It’s in their DNA.

I hear the squeak of folding lawn chairs.

I cannot believe the Repub leadership is smart enough to try and trap the Zero King into refusing this option and then going to the media with it saying, "See? We were reasonable! We tried to offer something, but he won't negotiate!"

Like the "news" media will fall for that. Everyone knows Obammy won't go for anything less than 100% of what he demands.

Let me guess... cuts to Social Security, or perhaps new taxes on the "rich" (i.e. working people), or perhaps snatch people's bank accounts (as in the trendy new European "bank haircuts")?

Good idea!

At this point Boner and Company KNOW we are watching them like a duck after a junebug. I doubt they are more scared of the dems than of TP types.
