The want to dismantle SS, Medicare, and give corporations tax-free reign, so that all of the burdens of maintaining society are bourne by middle and low income Americans. And the GOP distracts from that by wrapping themselves in the flag and carrying a cross. As usual, the Republicans are just projecting.

So when they stupidly create a distraction to the ACA rollout/criticism blitz their stooges complain about their own GOP incident as a distraction from the planned attack on Obama. They really don't care about anyone noticing this triple twisted standard do they?

The Republicans couldn't produce a healthy fart if they ate a hill of beans!!

Not one Republican in Congress is working to solve our nation's problems.
They all vote in the House the same way and march in lockstep with each other.

They all vote in the Senate to filibuster anything and everything, and act with one mindset.

They all voted to shut down the federal government.

So, what the fuck are they doing in office to begin with??

and they are never on the job -- not that it matters since they do not know how to do anything except pass bills against abortion and against ACA.

Get the vote out in 2014!! I am doing my precinct. Please do your precinct.
