With enough real republicans/tea party congresspersons, defunding CAN happen. To think otherwise is self-defeating.
I don’t look at the results of the 2010 elections as a one-time event. It’s a start.
Sorry to say it this way...
...but the elections mean nothing, they are just a sham for the people.
IF all that energy had been directed at the agencies and bureaucrats, perhaps we could turn this mess back.
But...as long as we stay focused on the little minds in congress...we doom ourselves to the tyranny.
Elections no longer have consequences.
Defunding is defending. You don't kill a dandelion by running a mower over it or refusing to give it fertilizer. You kill it by tearing the d*mned thing out by the roots.
