Every two years before the midterm elections, we hear Republican candidates promise that if elected they will rein in the Obama administration excesses – Obamacare, amnesty, trillion-dollar deficits, increasing government regulation, legislative transparency, and unlawful executive orders. Like Lucy promising Charlie Brown a shot at the football, Republicans promise each time that things will be different. Yet Lucy continues to lift the football at the last minute, leaving the hapless Charlie Brown kicking at air.
Immediately after the November midterms, the president announced his amnesty plan. Republicans, fresh from landslide victories in congressional, state, and local elections, were well-positioned to flex their newfound muscle by re-establishing constitutional checks and balances on an overzealous executive branch. Instead, Senate Majority Leader McConnell folded like a cheap suit, abandoning efforts to defund President Obama’s amnesty efforts.

I am not ever going to the polls again to vote , i am finished with the republican party and them acting like big Marxist liberal democrats. we no longer have a congress represented of and for by the people, they represent themselves and there big money donors and they have self destructed themselves as of yesterday. its become a party of liars, thieves, political whores, traitors and seditionatries.
