Here lies sthe Republican Party


The Republican Party in its present form will never be seen again. If we are very lucky, they will never win another election. They cannot survive this. Eight years of relentless obstruction, of standing in the way of every piece of legislation, of arrogantly dismissing the demands of voters has provoked a political rebellion against Rience Prebius and the rest of the GOP. The toxic potion of racism, ignorance, and hatred now being poured down the throat of the Republican Party is a brew of their own creation – and there is nothing the party can do but choke and die. What comes afterwards is the real question.

Inside the GOP Clown Car

On the campaign trail in Iowa, Donald Trump's antics have forced the other candidates to get crazy or go home

The thing is, when you actually think about it, it's not funny. Given what's at stake, it's more like the opposite, like the first sign of the collapse of the United States as a global superpower. Twenty years from now, when we're all living like prehistory hominids and hunting rats with sticks, we'll probably look back at this moment as the beginning of the end.

In the meantime, though, the race for the Republican Party presidential nomination sure seems funny. The event known around the world as hashtagGOPClownCar is improbable, colossal, spectacular and shocking; epic, monumental, heinous and disgusting. It's like watching 17 platypuses try to mount the queen of England. You can't tear your eyes away from it.

GOP is after Obamacare again

Will Republicans ever give up on their ACA repeal crusade?

"Obamacare repeal” crusaders need a new hobby

They're still trying to kill Social Security, Medicare, the Voting Rights Act, and other historic legislation...why should they be expected to act differently toward ACA?

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell championed a renewed push to bypass a filibuster and repeal Obamacare with 51 votes on Tuesday, he announced in a joint statement with Utah Senator Mike Lee, one of the most conservative Republicans in the chamber.
 
“Republicans are united in working to repeal the broken promises of Obamacare,” McConnell said in the statement, adding that the Senate will “continue our effort to use reconciliation … to fulfill the promise we made to our constituents.”

Orrin Hatches a Scheme

Orrin Hatches a Scheme that does not exist
That scheme would be the non-existent GOP medical plan


I have family that don't like Obama Care and for the life of me I can't imagine why .... except they have enough money to pay for whatever health care they want.  The GOP does not like it because it's not theirs and has Obama's name on it. This coming Wednesday the Supreme Court is going to decide if the Republican charges that "the Obama administration used the IRS to deliver health insurance subsidies to Americans in violation of the law"

And the GOP replacement plan goes like .... "There are no more ideas to be found; no more detail to be had. This isn’t a plan. It’s the barest possible sketch of some nascent ideas that could, one day, be used as the basis for a plan."

The GOP is about tearing anything Obama or Democrat down and they could give a shit less about average Americans.

Bobby Jindal - Another fear mongering GOP jerk

Bobby Jindal - aka Alfred E Neuman
hasn't got a clue

This idiot must get his news from FOX because he sure didn't get this right. Talking to a group in England he's claiming there are "No Go" zones in Britain where Muslim Sharia law trumps British law and police and commoners don't go there. This is after FOX News has apologized 3 times when their "resident terrorist expert" said the same thing. Poor Bobby/Alfred.

Getting back to Gov. Jindal, one has to wonder what prompted his ignorant outburst. Was this a lame attempt to play into the broad public fears of radical Islam that have arisen in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo killings? If so, that's not good enough for a politician with any shred of integrity.

In my view, Jindal immediately disqualified himself from ever holding a national political office by making such a bizarre statement, though it hasn't stopped any number of American politicians with bizarre notions from winning major national offices in the past. Such behavior does, however, embarrass this country in the court of world opinion.

Rand Paul and his Benghazi conspiracy theory

Senator Ran Paul is now accusing the Republican-led Benghazi investigation committee of a "cover up" to protect Obama and Hillary, just because the committee found that the White House did nothing wrong during the attacks. Spread his shame!  Purely GOP political nonsense !!!!


What's a shady politician to do when his favorite fake anti-Obama and anti-Hillary conspiracy theory gets exposed as a fraud by members of his own Republican Party? Lie, lie again.

In case you missed it, the Associated Press is reporting that the two-year Republican-led Benghazi investigation debunks, “A series of persistent allegations hinting at dark conspiracies, the investigation of the politically charged incident determined that there was no intelligence failure, no delay in sending a CIA rescue team, no missed opportunity for a military rescue, and no evidence the CIA was covertly shipping arms from Libya to Syria.”

The Republican Party is dead


Crazy runs deeps in the GOP base, and it’s a huge turn off to younger voters and Independents alike. The death spiral began the day the Republican party embraced the haters in the religious right, and it only got worse when the GOP created and embraced the Tea Party.  Good luck making things better now.

Climate change denier and over all nutcase - Lenar Whitney


So give Lenar Whitney all the attention she wants. Show younger voters, and women, and Latinos, and African-Americans and gays, and everyone else who has eyes to see and ears to hear, exactly what has become of the Grand Old Party.

Sue Obama for not doing and sue him for doing

The GOP won't do anything
So maybe the president will unilaterally
Heaven forbid

Surrounded by the crazies in US Government, mostly the GOP, I just had to create my own space to cut and paste and rant a little
