The GOP stuck its thumb in conservatives eyes.

I’m just so glad I stayed home in November. Why vote for them when they get in bed with Obama anyway?

As the FR resident cynic, I was right nothing is going to change next year.

There is little reason to vote anymore. Vote Democrat or vote Republican and the outcome is the same. The nation is lost.

Let’s just stop paying taxes. The House...the REPUBLICAN HOUSE can not control spending. It’s time we do it. I am tired of eating these crap sandwiches.

Living in Massachusetts, I’ve long known what it feels like to have no representation, no elected official who gives a damn.

Now I know what it’s like on a national level.

the WaPo story quotes Schumer and other Dem senators as thanking Cruz and Lee for allowing them to get more nominations through the Senate than otherwise would have been the case.

I’m stunned.

I thought they would have at least waited until Jan to reveal that they were lying too us through last year’s campaign.

We’re setting all kinds of records here in Obamaland. :)

If you had an opportunity to vote for a Ted Cruz, Jeff Sessions, or Mike Lee, do you still stay home?

If it didn’t all but guarantee a President Hillary or President Fauxcahontas in 2016, I would be all in for a new party.

The GOP is not a conservative party.

Its slightly to the right of the Democrats and just as liberal.
