So okay, let me point this out, as I am wont to do.
I know John Boehner addressed this issue in the House and kudos to him.
But we need these elected guys to get out there and beat the hell out of this issue. And I speak not just for the political expediency of such an orchestrated effort. IT REALLY IS IMPORTANT!!!
I note that not one elected Republican is on any of these Sunday talk shows discussing this matter. Where is Mumbles McConnell? Why isn’t Boehner following up on his House speech?
The guys running for office are taking up the matter, good for them. But yon ladies and gems, this is what they mean when they call them the “establishment”.
DO NOT rock the boat, don’t deal with issues that might cause prevailing winds to shift, stay within the womb of DC and let Rush, the pundits, the guys running....take up the matter.
Democrats NEVER do this. Had this been a Republican admin that messed up so bad, Nancy Pelosi would be on all the shows, Reid would be out there, Schumer would be pontificating.
It’s why they win and we lose. Because of the precious ESTABLISHMENT.

I do agree that our guys should be all over the shows and pounding what the issues really are! I believe Boehner is a Catholic, so he should really take a stand on it.
McConnell actaully gave a fairly good speach at CPAC and did address it there as did most of the other speakers that I was able to listen to. But, that’s not enough - as you said, they need to get on these shows. Hopefully, they will do so next week; and, perhaps they’ll have a larger audience if they discuss it on the weekly TV shows.
