Is It A Sell – Boehner – Out – McConnell – Sell – Cantor – Out – Coburn – Sell – Jordan – Out?

Once upon an election, we entrusted the Republican leadership with guiding our nation away from the yawning abyss that Barack Obama has built. I’ve been watching the incredible circus which has characterized the debt ceiling and ‘spending cut’ negotiations so far. It’s incredible to watch all of these RINO sellouts fall all over themselves to give ObaMao and his lackeys everything they want.

What is astonishing to me is that this is after all the smoke and mirrors are peeled away, and America gets to see just what an immense rip-off of our children’s futures is being crafted, as usual, mostly behind closed doors.

Equally astonishing is that these respective lawmakers are purposefully making themselves deaf to the absolute cacophony of very pointed protest coming from the now over 75 per cent of the American people who don’t want an increase in the debt ceiling.

It seems that the RINOs of the Republican leadership have all shown us their true colors, which from where I’m sitting seem to be various shades of yellow.

Mark Levin came out yesterday and said we should primary their asses. Whoops, that won’t fly on some of my affiliates so we’ll say something safely generic like ‘butts’.

If these scheming, treacherous snakes think they’re going to make lame agreements with not a prayer of them ever being honored, while the country is sold out again… being primaried will be the least of your worries. We’ll run conservatives against you and you will lose. We’ll turn the full power of the Tea Party Patriots to seeing that you’re run out of office.

    Unfortunately, many conservatives have a tendency to over estimate the impact of a single, isolated mid-term election.

    It happened in 1994 when the GOP ended the Democrats 40 year winning streak in the US House of Representatives (and the GOP took control of the US Senate for the first time in 8 years).

    It happened again in 2010, when the GOP won control of the US House and made gains in the US Senate (but the Democrats remained in control of that chamber).

    But mid-term electons do not mean what some conservatives think they mean.

    In order to change the direction of the country, a political party usually has to win by a significant margin in back to back election contests.

    That’s what the Democrats did in 2006 and 2008 elections.

    Remember, the Democrats did not even attempt to pass their government run health care plan until they won both chambers of Congress and the White House.

    Why? Well, the Democrats, having won control of both chambers of Congress in the 2006 elections, attempted to pass an expansion of the SCHIP entitlement program in 2007.

    President Bush vetoed the legislation and his veto was sustained.

    So, right then and there, the Democrats knew that in order to really move the country towards socialized medicine, they would have to win the White House.

    That’s why McConnell, despite all of the criticism he has received, is actually correct.

    Some conservatives think that having 56 percent of the US House of Represenatives, 47 percent of the Senate and 0 percent of the White House means that conservatism will triumph.

    That’s very, very, untrue. But some conservatives are delusional.

    The goal of non-delusional conservatives right now should be to prevent delusional conservatives from ruining the GOP’s changes of winning the White House and the US Senate in 2012. McConnell and Boehner might just pull it off.
