IMO, the GOP is a mess - leaderless, rudderless, alienating and breaking apart from within. On a national public level, at the local level around me. Abandoned by many of their faithful this last Presidential election, and yup, I was one of them.
One of the biggest crisis since I've been alive, and the GOP publically is busy dissing Obama? Unlike ArlJim, I don't think the GOP is entitled to check out, whine they are outnumbered, and not participate for the next year.
This isn't about who wins the next damn election cycle, this is a time of national crisis. The GOP were elected to do their job. Do it. This is exactly the time for them to step up and get involved. If they have good ideas, they can rally the general public to them, they can show they are the party with fiscal answers and fiscal responsibility. No matter what Congress and the Senate end up voting for. But they are not doing that. It's absurd.

Well,Riot, if you think that's an attack, please don't go outside , cuz it's a nasty world out there. Your cavalier answer to rebuff Obama and the Dems is proof you don't understand the depth of the crisis. (DO it) WTH are they to do in a almost filibuster-proof Congress....ride out like Paul Revere?
