I wrote here back during the Lame Duck session of the incompetent 111th Congress about how the GOP Senate had 41 votes, could block ANYTHING they wanted, just had to hold the ranks...  It looked like the GOP Senate would hold rank.  There would be no votes until the President Bush tax cuts were handled.  Bravo!  Then it happened...  President Obama looked to cut a deal, the Senate GOP jumped on it, and we were left with HORRIBLE spending on ethanol subsidies, electric cars, a stupid Social Security tax drop to 4.2%, etc...  Effectively, the GOP gave The Democrats and their RINO hacks loads of pork barrel spending to get the tax cuts extended. Ugh!  Wait, there is more...  Now resident hack RINOs Senator Susan Collins (R-ME), Olympia Snowe (R-ME), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Scott Brown (R-MA), etc, were free to do whatever they wanted...and boy did they...  A HORRIBLE treaty with Russia (START), that gave away our National Defense was PASSED after teetering on the brink of life support.  What?!?!  Russia now has a say in our missile defense and the technology.  Ugh!  Senator Mitch McConnell completely DESTROYED the great feeling of winning the Nov 2010 elections in just a couple weeks via the "most productive" Lame Duck session ever.  Heck, President Bush and the GOP didn't attempt to pass ANYTHING in their Lame Duck, yet the Senate GOP allowed the Democrats to do everything...  Ugh!  No fast forward a measly four months and the House GOP has just done the same thing.  No matter the HUGE crushing defeat of Democrats back in Nov 2010, the GOP House cut a deal on the current year budget for $38 billion in cuts after promising $100 billion.  Never mind that the 11th Congress under Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) didn't pass a budget.  The GOP cut another deal with Obama.  No government shutdown, etc...  Outcome?  Lame Duck session 2.0.  The $38 billion deal turn out to be CRAP.  The deal only reduces our $1.5 trillion deficit by $350 million.  Ugh!  Ugh!  Ugh!  What the hell is this garbage?  The GOP gained 60+ House seats, and nearly 700 State House seats back in Nov 2010.  The country is BEGGING for fiscal sanity and the GOP is calling 3x weekly psychiatrists visits, bipolar disorder, and a mouthful of Prozac a sane "person."  Ugh!  There is also news that the GOP will raise the debt ceiling without a fight???  What the F!  The GOP needs new leadership!  I called for Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to be replaced, and now it is nearly time for Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) to go.  The debt limit is it!  If the GOP doesn't score actual deficit reductions via a debt limit increased, the fight is over.  Say goodbye to the largest mountain of political capital EVER presented to a party.  Thrown away for a few hundred million dollars and "goodwill."  Sigh...
