You better believe I think they can be voted out, and they SHOULD be.
However, as much as we need to vote them out, it is perhaps those new individuals who claimed in the election that they would go to Washington and stand against these things that we need to focus on even more right now. After all, we should not be surprised a career politician is a career politician, but our Freshmen Conservatives? They promised more, and we expected more too.
The point is: Even with RINO leadership, if those individuals had stood their grounds on the principle they claimed they would stand on, this may have turned out to be a totally different scenario.
This is crucial to this kind of thing not happening again.
Make those Freshman liars an example of what happens when you go to Washington DC and cave into the same corruption they went to defend against so NONE offered our representation will ever do such a thing again!
He’s going to blame them anyway! What a bunch spineless morons.

I never read him that way. I think he was wise, for the most part, refusing to be blown and tossed by the accusations of fools...especially when there were so many, so much of the time.
But I would agree that he took that too far, refusing to respond in certain instances that demanded it.
Way too far,you can thank Fart blossom,Rove for part of it,Reagan would have NEVER put up with that crap,Like"The War is Lost" Reid,
He let us down big time and made himself into a Joke of the left.
You KNEW it was going to come down to this, in the end...
Obama was willing to CRASH the economy to get a debt increase that put him past the 2012 elections.
And he KNOWS that the largely-gay, largely extreme liberal DC Media would cover for him.
“I think I would like to stick around long enough to turn the entire GOP into the Tea Party.”
I understand your point, and that’s certainly possible, but by supporting and donating to the Pubbies it only encourages more of the same RINO behavior which may actually make it harder to take over. Once the GOP relizes that it has a serious deficit of its own in terms of support and funding, it may force them to accomodate and embrace the Tea Party. In other words, starve the beast.
Yes, I think we are not that far apart.
Starve the beast, but feed the candidates that will change it.
We have agreement! Now let’s hurry up and vote on it before anyone asks questions. :)
