I am sorry I must break up with you. You seem to have lost your grip on reality - albeit never the tightest hold. I read this only today...
There’s no doubt that, as a party, we need to do a better job of communicating and engaging with the American people. In the House, we only control one half of one third of the government, and going up against the presidential bully pulpit is tough. But our priorities are still firmly aligned with the American peoples’: creating jobs, cutting wasteful government spending, and expanding opportunity for all Americans so they can achieve the American dream. Our job as House Republicans is to put our principles into legislation, like the budget that we will vote on this month, and show how those solutions help families in our Congressional districts and around the country..
Pumpkin. Come on - get real.
.
You're for "creating jobs, cutting wasteful government spending, and expanding opportunity for all Americans."?
.
If I take you at your word, then why did ya'll vote 50-some times in the last 2 years to overturn the Affordable Health Care Act ("Obamacare"). Even if ya'll voted once, or twice or three times to make a point - why keep doing it when you knew it wouldn't pass. Is that "wasteful" government?
.
If you care about those 3 things (creating jobs, cutting spending, granting opportunity) why have you passed all those state laws about ultrasounds before terminating a pregnancy? Why do you keep saying rape can't get people pregnant? Why do you support a war in Afghanistan, a war on drugs, a war on terrorism and want a new war in Syria. Where does that pass the "wasteful government" test?
.
If you want us to believe you (and maybe you do) then try something new. Try governing for all Americans, not hijacking the government in order ONLY to keep taxes down on the top 1% of people. I am not saying you need to raise those taxes, I am just saying - focus on something else. ANYTHING else.
.
In the meantime, Dear John, I am seeing a nice Libertarian boy from Canada. God speed and good luck. I hope you meet someone that makes you happy soon.
