I don't disagree, and I will continue to engage in the political process, but I just see virtually no hope in it. We're always having to throw these pricks out of office, and what do we ever gain for it? The 2010 midterm was of historical proportions, and our reward has been a weeping quisling as Speaker. Then in 2012, they doubled down on it by making him Speaker again.
Also, supposing we do primary Burr and get a better senator in there, the damage has been done already. Republicans never reverse course on anything. The best you can ever hope for with them is that -- maybe! -- they'll halt the leftward slide for a while. But it never goes back to the right.
I have to give the Left one thing: they have strategic ideological vision and are committed to it. They voted for ObamaCare even knowing many of them would pay a political price in the 2010 midterms. But they also knew they'd eventually get back into power and they'd be able to "behold this fully armed and operational battle station".
Sigh. Sorry. I'm just so sick of having daggers in our back from these swine. They're playing political games. Watch, when it goes up for a full vote, they'll vote against it there while knowing it's going to pass regardless. They want it to pass, and merely needed to maneuver into a position where it would pass while still giving them the opportunity to vote against it for political cover. If they had actually wanted to kill it, they could have done it earlier in the process.
