A good summary of the state of affairs in Washington:
“Beyond that, the Congressman reported that he’s even heard Speaker Boehner speak derogatorily of the tea party behind closed doors. I’m not surprised. I have often said the Republican elite would like to see the tea party movement go away much more than the Democrats. I spoke last month with another Texas conservative Congressman who reported that Boehner has surrounded himself with “yes” men who are not conservatives and, if they once were, have sold their souls for leadership positions. Do you hear me Jeb Hensarling?”
“It’s this simple, the House Republican leaders have no plan to cut real federal spending or to repeal ObamaCare. Repealing or defunding ObamaCare was the ONE priority Americans sent the Republicans to do when they were returned to power in the House. I began to sense how things would be when Republicans pledged to cut spending by only $100 billion. $100 billion? Wow. Veni, vidi, durmi! I came, I saw, I yawned! We have a $1.65 TRILLION deficit this year alone! And, of course, Republican leadership has already retreated from the $100 billion to a measly $51 billion. You have to hand it to Republicans, they never fail to disappoint!”

Then reflect on a couple of lines from the Star Wars movie:
“You want to go home and rethink your life.”
“These are not the droids you are looking for.”
We cannot vote ourselves out of this mess.
When will YOU wake up ?
Repeat after me:
Vote Republican in 2012 and everything will be fine.
Seems like yesterday when the mantra was:
Vote Republican in 2010 and everything will be fine.
When in doubt, go back to basics:
