Senate Dim-bulb-crats are stupid and sleazy.
Senate Repulsicans are slightly less sleazy, but way more stupid.
See what happens when there is no IQ test for “public service”.
That's the problem! Unlike Byrd, they *are*. LOL.
If they’re trying to prove they’re lame and stupid, they’re effective.
FILIBUSTER KAGAN.
” This shouldnt surprise many people, because with very few exceptions the Republicans hadnt determined how to govern by 2006, after taking control of Congress in 1994. “
You know, I have known for 20 years that the Republicans didn’t like confrontation. However, their behavior since the dictator took over leaves me with little hope anything will change. The Republicans in the House & Senate, with maybe 10 exceptions, act like they don’t even care if our country is destroyed or not. I swear, they don’t even care.
Castle, Kirk and Fiorina would be the new RINO’s in residence joining Snowe, Collins and Brown. The good news is we would be the majority party.
Obama is on the ropes, and a Kagan fillibuster could REALLY hurt him. So of course, the Republicans will do nothing.
Plus, she has no business on SCOTUS and it’s not a give away seat!
There’s no guarantee our guys will live through his term.
Idiot senators.
To tell you the truth, I’m without words at this juncture.
Bingo!!!
They never did, even when we did have control, they did not want it and had to get rid of NEWT. From there they just played with the Dems. so as not to dirty their hands, and GET ALL THE PORK and GIMMIE's they could walk away with.
Pretending they were the good guys, while getting to blame the DEMs for the dirty deeds. THEY DON"T want control, that would make them accountable.
BUT, come NOV., (can't wait), there will be a NEW BREED of Republicans in town, how will the old ones handle that???
Regulate them to the back of the room, no committees, will be interesting to see if the NEW BREED puts them in their place.
As much as I hate & despise the demoRAT socialist commie pigs - 0b0z0, Pelosi & Reid, I wish that we had Repubs especially in teh Senate to be as hard ass & ideological as the socialist bastards. If so, maybe we could fire up the people to come out & vote & support. Instead when most of Repubs are measily talking about winning a few elections, etc, no wonder the demoRATs play them for fools. What a bunch of pandering idiots.
Nor should they be. House Dems may not want to reserve their U-Haul truck to take their junk back home just yet, either!!
But, just for fun, let me play devil's advocate. What if the 'Pubbies take control of the Senate AND the House??? What then?? If history is any value, their stewardship of these houses of Congress will be no better than the Dems' has been. They did okay in the early days of the Contract with America, but the bloom was quickly off the rose when they allowed themselves to be seduced by their lust for power.
As we all know, their abandonment of their conservative roots led to the losses in '06 and '08. So, what has changed in the last 2 years in the GOP (aka Stupid Party) to make us believe that a return to power of the GOP is going to be America's saving grace!!??? They are as bereft of ideas as the Dems and all we are going to do is repeat the acts of the past in hopes that they will yield a different result in the future. They won't. The 'Pubbies will simply lift a corner of the carpet and sweep the dirt under it because it's easier and won't interfere with Happy Hour at the club at 5 o'clock!! IOW, NOTHING will get fixed. The 'Pubbies are NOT the good guys on white chargers coming to rescue us.
In short, they are gutless politicians (like the Dems) whose sole concern is their next election (like the Dems) and being overpaid (like the Dems) for screwing the country (like the Dems) that they have no devotion or dedication towards (like the Dems) and growing their power (like the Dems)!! So, in truth, what are we REALLY expecting them to do???
“WIMPS! Sarah Palin takes on Obama on every issue and when one of the Senators gets around to speaking up, he sounds like a weak and watered down echo chamber of her, IF she hasnt taken too much heat from the WH for ripping The One and his Marxist policies.”
Exactly this yellow bunch tip toes around the filthy rats,When they should be yelling and screaming and telling it like it is.
The choice of the cartoon was very good. That explains it pretty clearly.
I am sick and tired of a goddam go-along-get-along Repub Senator talking about how we gotta work together, cooperate, meet in the middle. Screw the goddam opposition, screw those Republicans! They are nothing but a bunch of bullshit chickens too comfortable with their trappings of second tier power. No ambition, no drive, no morals, no patriotism, no HONOR. Screw them all.

Remember, most of them were on the public payroll for years, if not decades, before getting to Washington. 29 of them have been in Washington more than 12 years, which is the point where the odds of any common sense remaining becomes mathmatically impossible.
The Senate is almost, if not literally a total write off.
There are some bright spots in Congress, but even then, more than at any other time that I have seen, even those are sometimes willing to go native on us.
I share your outlook concerning bright hopes for the future.
If "republican" Mark Kirk wins in Illinois, he will outSnowe, outCollins, outBrown and outRINO generally, the entire senate.
