In the old days party bosses got the politicians in and kept them in line. It was considered a dirty business. But considering the bozos that are in now, I would be glad to defer to the boss system.
The tea party can never win a single victory while they see talking to the president as satanic. They simply cannot pass anything. When the debt ceiling comes up and the tea party says “burn down the entire economy!!!” maybe even the irrational types at the Chamber of Commerce will realize that the Republican Party’s nihilist policies are no longer good for business, the rich, the poor, or anyone.
Republican don’t want to be Speaker of the House, i.e. doing the nation’s work.
The want to be Speaker of the Republicans, to only do the ‘majority of the majority’ stuff. But since the Republican agenda consists of being anti-Obama and anti-Hillary, there’s no majority to govern.
You’ll notice their big ‘accomplishments’ were Benghazi hearings meant to damage Hillary, repealing of Obamacare 50 or 60 times, and killing immigration reform where the majority of the House votes were there.
Ryan, of course, wants nothing to do with governing — he’s got, you know, ambitions.
We need someone as far to the right as possible, who has the stones to actually work to stop Obozo’s radical left wing agenda.______________________Yeah because they are doing such a great job now. That’s just like saying the answer is more guns. Yes lets have more of what’s not working please and thank you.

“…but more than that they have had character.”Now they are just a bunch of character’s, not a statesman in sight.

Maybe the US needs a three party system — Democrats, Republicans, and the Tea Party.

As a former leader of the free world, what an embarrassment we have become.

That being said, any form of government is nothing more than one group of people trying to enforce their will upon another group.

And Obama is the problem with Congress how? He didn’t vote in those idiots the public did. Hope you’re happy this is what you get.

So you want to make cuts in spending, but don’t want to raise taxes? You know mathematically that doesn’t make sense right?

As they all seem to be running from it like a leprous dog with rabies, don’t get the toon. Oh, wait, the craziest of them may still want it.
