McConnell/Corker/GOPE illustrate why it is silly to think that voting, even strictly for conservatives, will alter the horrid course of our republic.

After giving up the legislative power to Obama along with the purse, the Senate is about to grant Obama the power to make treaties.

Is this why we have a congress? Has it not been corrupted to a purpose precisely the opposite of its original intent?

It doesn’t get better from here, even if a staunch conservative were elected in 2016.
