Not surprising. I’ve heard that Obama treats the House and Senate a lot like the way ones like Richard Daley Jr dealt with Chicago City Council. Basically forcing them to rubber stamp whatever they wanted by whatever means possible. When they are bought and paid for by very wealthy, limousine liberal interests, doing things the Chicago way is probably not too terribly difficult.
The GOP establishment and Obama work for the same people.
"Obama is our King, our Lord, our Caliph whom we protect.
The scum of America, especially conservatives and Constitution-clingers,
only deserve IRS attacks which WE initiated."
Duh. The GOP only ‘acts’ conservative when they are a minority.
We’re on our own...the sell out and compromised GOP...isn’t going to do jack s**t.
I would expect that NSA has the dirt on these RINOs loaded on a robo-caller. “Hello Mitch, remember back in 2012 when you wrote your intern that inappropriate email? Well, here’s how you’re going to vote on the upcoming issue. I knew you’d understand and thanks for your support.”
In our iteration of the cycle, we have now progressed to the return of pseudo "two party rule" not unlike time of the Democrats and the Whigs.

Ladies and Gentlemen, please return to your seats. The Captain has just turned on the "Fasten Seat Belts" sign as we are about to enter some turbulence.
Garbage in, garbage out.
It doesn’t take a study to determine that.
We would have been better off if McConnell and Cochran had lost.
Raise you hand if you see any difference between the GOP controlled Congress and the 2008 Dem controlled Congress.
