The GOPe is as big a problem as the Jackasses are!

We need to clean out own house first!

Absolutely......... I'm done with both of them, one is as bad as the other these days and the lemmings keep following them off the deck of the Titanic because of what they have behind their names - R or D.....

So, people are ticked off, and they will show their displeasure by turning the reins over to... the OTHER half of the political establishment in DC.

We're moving deck chairs on the deck of the Titanic. 


P.S. The GOP is already promoting how they will "fix" the ACA.

So, the garbage piece of Socialist legislation stays, and becomes, via the fact that the GOP opted for "repair" over "repeal", a bipartisan entitlement program.

I get this. Moving deck chairs around. I agree it is done and nothing is ever accomplished.

You are omitting some things in your theory. If Obama is allowed to continue and be above the law and utilize the IRS to gut his political opponents we are setting a very dangerous precedent. Just because Obama is historic black he can do as he pleases?

Go to the judicial websites official page. they are not playing. There was a hearing on what measures to take and if what Obama has done warrants impeachment.

There are some republicans that are not afraid of the media calling them a VRWC. Obama has used the IRS to silence voices in politics allotting him to not be shellacked. Not too mention APgate, Benghazi, F&F, droning Americans, making illegal recess appointments, CIA spy on anyone and everyone, Obamacare. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST...

Aiding and abetting and providing comfort to the enemy terrorist.

This cannot be ignored no matter what.

Yes, but they are not going to impeach him, Gazoo. Even if they win the senate they will not impeach him....... they are too afraid to do anything the media might not like.

So Obama gets away with it all, goes to Hawaii and we get more of the same with Hillary?

Hopelessness derived from a man of hope.

Beyond depressing...

It is depressing and even more so that primary voters keep returning the same old men who propagate the same tired old policies on this country in election after election and no one has their feet held to the fire for their part in destroying this country....... it isn't just the president who needs to be impeached, he has a lot of aiders and abetters who just shrug and say we can't stop him.

Exactly! They are more afraid of the media than they are their constituents. That is a huge mistake on their part.

This cannot be ignored no matter what.

George W. Bush came to office in the heels of the rejection of the Clinton's attempted health care take over. He signed into law the largest entitlement program since who knows when (The Medicare Modernization Act, which included Medicare Part D) , signed No Child Left Behind, and set the Patriot Act in place.

Obama came to office swearing to end George W. Bush's expansion of the power of the Executive Order, brought to realization the health care take over, expanded the use of Executive Orders, and presided over the Patriot Act's natural outcome, the NSA's spy activities.

IF Republicans take power in 2014/2016, they will "fix" Obamacare, and probably expand the use of EOs. They'll "fix" the NSA's program, and "reform" immigration.

We grow the government no matter who's in charge.

It's relentless.

Just read AB's report from the Cornyn/Rove rally this weekend.  They like the status quo and are determined to tell the voters what the voters will like instead of the voters telling them what we all want and them paying attention - this is why they are helping Obama with the IRS shutting down the TP.

For quite some time it's been obvious that the GOP is positioning themselves to be European style conservatives. That is to say, they don't promise small government, they simply promise to manage the big government better than the liberals.

Absolutely true! Hence the rise of TEA!

Most of us STILL do not want BIG government managed by European style Conservatives! We want CONSTITUTIONAL government managed by American patriots and that is what we will have or die trying!

No, I think in this case they're afraid to do anything that blacks might not like.

Their fear maybe justified.

What's that, besides an excellent title for one of the World's thinnest books??  ESCs are nothing more than the survivors who had sense enough to capitulate to the overwhelming far left in Europe, especially the extreme far left like the German Greens......

I am looking for the First American President since Obama........

They are just realists, who know that even Reagan did NOT reduce the size of government.

My father was friends with Howard Jarvis, co-author of Jarvis-Gann, Proposition 13 in California in the late 70s. This ballot proposition placed a permanent cap on property taxes.

Jarvis life experience taught him that politicians will spend all the money they can get, so restrict what they get.

When I asked my father why Reagan couldn't do more, he reminded me that the President makes just a few thousand "political appointees" to head agencies. There are hundreds of thousands of career employees in said agencies.

In fact. politicians will outspend all the money they get, in order to create a need for more money.

This sluggish economy may be the new normal, and Hillary's going to have to come up with something new in 2016.  The lefties in the Democrat Party are not going to go along with another nominee who seems to be favorable to Wall Street and corporations, as Bill Clinton was.

*  *  *


Reminds me of the recent mayoral election in NYC - the left, dissatisfied with the left-of-center Bloomberg, went even further hard left with Deblasio.

Perhaps DeBlasio will run for the presidency in 2016?

Actually a sluggish economy doesn't have to be. It is of our own making due to letting environmentalists chase the middle class jobs out of this country helping lift up the economy in China and stopped our energy production allowing us to lift up the economy in the Middle East.  In the process we bring in cheap, uneducated labor and are draining our own economy with stagnating wages and growing unemployment.

I listened to a very long interview yesterday with a business owner in North Dakota. Their economy is so booming thanks to fracking that there is a need for every job including doctors, lawyers, construction, truck drivers, etc...  the training wage at WalMart in ND is $17 an hour and it goes up from there.  They have at least 30 years worth of wells to drill. This man (business owner) said he has openings for four hundred people - the average wage is over $100K a year.. he's looking for four more HR employees to handle all the people he is hiring - he said take his 400 x the number of other businesses looking to hire just in ND and then apply that to the country is we unleashed our energy resources across the entire nation - cheap energy would bring back the steel manufacturing, chemical manufacturing, etc... the list is long.

As long as the political parties remain in control of the Congress there isn't a snowball's chance in hell any of them will grow a spine.  The Checks and Balances that were written into the Constitution did just that....checked AND balanced the government.  Gridlock is not balance....
