The GOP had control of both houses and the White House for overten years and they didn't do a damned thing about this. I share much of your frustration about the GOP but there are several things you should consider. When the Republicans were the majority it was by a very thin margin. The Dems blocked everything by either filibustering or using other procedural devices to block legislation. Even speaking out loud and clear is not very effective if the MSM doesn't carry it.
We have been in the middle of a Leftist conspiracy for years and it has intensified in the past ten. The GOP has not been bereft of good conservatives but overcoming the media has become almost impossible.

While it is certainly true of the MSM, I cannot and I challenge you to find ANY mention of the FannieMae/Freddie Mac fiasco BEFORE the dam burst on the congressmen/senators' OWN WEBSITES, their speeches back home in their districts and local media which is not so biased, or any speeches on C-SPAN during their one minute speeches.
True this isn't much but Newt Gingrinch started the GOP take over of Congress with such tactics.
Their SILENCE is deafening and the leadership should have their feet held to the fire.
