Sarah Palin: House GOP ‘flipped American voters the bird’
Politico ^ | December 12, 2014 | By KENDALL BREITMAN

Posted on 12/14/2014 2:36:51 PM PST by Jim Robinson

Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin said the House Republicans who passed $1 trillion-plus funding bill late Thursday “flipped American voters the bird.”

“It’s baffling really,” Palin said in an interview with Breitbart News on Friday. “The Republican Leadership in the House just flipped American voters the bird by sidelining the new Congress we just elected.”

Palin’s criticisms come the morning after the House passed a spending bill by a 219-206 vote. While the bill will keep the government open for another year, Palin and other conservatives are not happy that the legislation will fund President Barack Obama’s executive action on immigration and the Affordable Care Act — or as Palin calls it, “the mother-of-all unfunded mandates.”

“It stinks to high heaven,” Palin said of the bill. “Did arrogant politicians not get the memo that Obama’s agenda was decisively defeated in last month’s historic midterm landslide?”

She continued, “Good Lord, America said loud and clear, not just ‘no,’ but ‘hell no’ to Obama’s failed policies.”

Palin said she hopes that the 162 Republicans who backed the bill face backlash and called this an “example of the GOP establishment campaigning one way and then governing another.”

“It’s quite nauseating,” she said. “They promised they would do everything in their power to stop Obama’s executive amnesty — I heard their darn campaign speeches promising to do so! — and yet when they have the power to do so (power that we the voters just gave them) they tacitly endorse Obama’s failed agenda.”

They did. And worse than that they, in my opinion, got away with doing it. What did [figuratively] to Conservatives was down dirty, and vulgar.

CAESAR speaking:"Et tu, Brute?" {Brutus} Caesar calling out to Brutus as his friend Brutus and other Roman Senators suddenly and repeatedly began stabbing Caesar to death.

VOTERS WHO VOTED FOR REPUBLICANS THIS MIDTERM speaking: "Et tu, Boehner?" Referring to how Speaker Boehner betrayed and stabbed midterm Republican voters in the back with his passage of the recent traitorous spending bill.

BOEHNER: Who is Judas? Why do people keep calling me Judas as I walk down the street? Why did someone recently leave 30 pieces of silver on my doorstep? I only want what is best for America. As my friend Obama likes to say: "It was the right thing to do.God bless America!"

Oh Sarah, “It’s just not the right time” to tackle this issue. This “gets the issue off the table”. Maybe “when we have the presidency”. “We’ll only have two branches of government”.

Signed, the GOPe

it’s just Palin being her normal ditzy self. Nothing new here . . .

/sarcasm

that’s what the MSM will say. or they may use it to hammer the GOP in congress. In which the dems/media should held to account for their hypocrisy.
Palin is either a ditz or right on the money, which is it?

Damn that was good Heastamp!

I should have used that line when I pinged Sarah's List.

It captures the Mentality of the GOP perfectly!

Sarah is spot on and no one should be surprised that she is right of that the GOP establishment has no respect for the Americans who put them in power.

So let’s see whether she is going to DO anything about what they did when the next primary season rolls around. I recall that she has been reluctant to go after John McCain, perhaps not admitting to herself that he put her on the ticket just for the sake of ticket balancing.
