The only problem with Levin is that he seems to be about as wrong as Beck. For example, in this story he credit’s the GOP with having slowed down the the Demoncrat’s agenda when, in fact, it was the American People who accomplished that.

Well yeah. Of course. The people, Republican voters, who supported the Republicans representatives who threw up the roadblocks. Not the Republicans who whined and cried and said there was (is) no difference between the parties. Not the Republicans who ape the "everybody does it" liberal talking point. Not the Republicans who, whenever liberals do anything, cry: "and the spineless Republicans will do nothing".

A little reading comprehension on your part is needed.

Levin said,”The GOP is becoming more conservative thanks to the grass-roots movement and a political uprising across the country...”

But it was the elected Republican representatives who looked over the American political landscape and responded to us by their votes against that legislation.

I disagree.

True. But likewise it was the American People who FAILED to slow down the Rat and RINO agendas in the past.

Neither the GOP (TEA) nor the Rats have any power that we don't give them or acquiesce to them.

We The People raised hell and got the Miers' nomination pulled. This not only got rid of her, it gave Bush and the GOP cover to get Justice Roberts.

We the People raised hell and got amnesty off the fast track.

We the People got to this place because WE didn't raise enough hell up to this point. If we had, the GOP, President Bush, McCain, whoever might have changed course, as we saw in those couple of examples. It's semantics to try to split the accomplishments OR failures of our representatives from the represented unless We The People have done everything short of a shooting war and they still won't listen.
