Repeat question of the day: Does the GOP have enough balls? (Going wobbly on ObamaCare)
Michellemalkin.com ^ | 4/1/10 | Malkin

On March 4, I asked:

Does the GOP have enough balls to fight the Left or doesn’t it?

Having to ask the question answers it.

And this latest, depression-inducing news about Senate Republicans backtracking on their campaign to repeal Demcare, via Ace of Spades, confirms it:

GOP Already Starting To Go Wobbly On Repealing Health Care Reform Monstrosity .

Iowahawk drives the point home.

Sorry, I don’t feel much like laughing today.

There are a grand total of about 3 pairs of balls amongst the GOP senators.

We have a lot of work to do. We have to tale back the party, and thats serious , Republicans need to know we are coming.Many who do not have the balls need to step aside.Do their country a service and leave it to those who have the stomach for the fight.

I read that the two parties were both quite the same and that they were run by some world organization. The person said that there were small differences allowed so the people could think they were getting their way while they followed the world plan.

If you have to ask, you already know the answer. BTW, the answer is no so we must get out the cattle prods to reinforce how important this is to us.

Do we have an independent who’s going to stand up to these treasonous Marxist rogues and outlaws headed by a Kenyan Imposter playing President/Dictator in the White House?

They just fallow the script. No courage needed.

Nature abhors a vacuum. If the Republicans turn out to be a Kirby, something will fill it.

Obviously they do not have the balls to fight.....they should be working on the repeal of ObamaCare immediately.

If they go weak on the repeal...you can be sure the Liberal RINO GOP will be passing Cap And Trade, Amnesty, and the other Liberal agenda

The GOP needs a good strong purge of Liberals. Of course....that can start with the voting out of John Husseim McBama in Arizona in the primary

Maybe they could be convinced to borrow some from (see tag line), who have plenty to spare.

They must not make promises they cannot keep or claim ability they do not have.

The legislative process for the forseeable future is over and it is the courts that will decide the suits brought by a host and double and triple host of private individuals and corporations and states that will first contest the debacle of a law.

It is fashionable to bash Republicans, but not now at the immediate present.

What are our options? We can say to these politicians, if you do not fight Obamacare, we will NOT vote for you or financially support you. We can encourage independents to run for office and support them. We can do nothing. No more RINOs. If the GOP wants my support, it will have to earn it.

They may not. But the voters do. Let’s show them. First of all defeat McCain (AZ) and Bennett (UT) in their respective primaries. That will make them at least start looking for their balls.

Repeat question of the day: Does the GOP have enough balls?

Michelle, Michelle, it's not the number of the ummm...appendage that is in question here. It's the size of the things. I am sure all these GOP Senators have at least 2 of them(if they are normal humans that is). Question is, are they big brass ones?
From the looks of things so far, it looks doubtful.

Any Republican who waivers on 0bamacare will not get a dime of support from me. I have long ago stopped donating to the RNC for that very reason.

Let the CONSERVATIVE Republican leadership know we support Sen Jim DeMint by signing his Repeal ObamaCare Pledge.

Don’t let the RINO’S define how we deal with it.

http://repealitpledge.com/

192,000 folks have made the pledge!!!!

How about you????

Sadly America is lost and does not have any leaders in the GOP to step up and get the passive American engaged. We have lost our moral compass and I don’t think we will ever get it back as American’s seem happy watching American Idol while Obummer destroy’s America.

We need a new American revolution to begin but the GOP does not seem to have the brain power to get it done.

There are three I’ve heard going wobbly. One isn’t even Senator yet (Mark Kirk) and has always been a liberal. Burr in NC and Corker in Kentucky have been more than a little weak in the knees and for what reason? What do they think they are gaining? I can almost understand Kirk and I didn’t expect anything better from him but Corker and Burr should be better than this. Both are from states who are filled to the brim with constitutes who are solidly against Obamacare. What can’t Republicans just run against the whole irresponsibility of it all. The Federal government isn’t a candy store and its credit card is trillions of dollars past maxed out. The populist argument isn’t even hard to make the question is why if they really do stand for liberty and on the side of the sovereign citizen are they worried? It doesn’t make sense.
