Where is Bachmann and the rest of the Tea Party caucus? Why aren’t they speaking out forcefully, with one voice, against the scorched earth tactics of RINO Boehner? It’s amazing how quickly politicians drink the kool-aid once they get to Washington. If we’re lucky we can get two terms out of a House member before they start to wobble. Some don’t even survive a single term. A motivated, principled and courageous Tea Party caucus could force Boehner to change his tune. If Bachmann et al. don’t speak out to protect the four who got tossed off the committees, they’ll be next.
I have served in local government, and I can attest to the truth of your statement.
The reason is very simple, people naturally want to get along with those they work along side for a long period of time, and even the most committed person will eventually start to go along to get along.
This is why term limits are so critical.
We need a constant infusion of people with new ideas and the boldness to stand up for them into government and simultaniously need to be purging those who have been in government the longest who have consolidated power and who actively attempt to muzzle the thoughts and actions of the newly elected.
“RINO Boehner?!?”
How can someone be a “Republican In Name Only” if he was elected by the entire GOP caucus to be Speaker of the House?
People, there is no such thing as a “RINO.” They are just Republicans doing what Republicans do, lying about being conservative while playing their role as minority members of the Ruling Class.
Bachmann- was attacked incessantly up here- by both Demonrats-the news- ANd republicans!- Almost lost
her seat!! ( oh..- also redid her district lines!)
So, guess what- the RINO’s are working hand in hand with
the Demons- always have always will.
