Republicans don't give a shit about government working. They want it to end. They want us living in caves with a return to the Wild Wild West with the church in charge. If they really cared, they wouldn't vote people into office whose only goad was to bring down the county.
Boehner: Judge Congress by how many laws it repeals, not passes - NBC Politics
"We should not be judged on how many new laws we create," the nation's top elected Republican said on CBS. "We ought to be judged on how many laws we repeal."
Congress has only passed 15 bills that have become law this year, putting it on pace to be even less productive than the preceding Congress, from 2011-2013, when 23 laws were enacted. Congress continues to suffer from record-low approval ratings and partisan gridlock that stalls most legislation (though there were some signs of a thaw this week).
The White House expressed its incredulity at the claim.

You can't say Republicans want to "build" when they tell us all they want to do is "tear down". I believe the Republican leadership. I always have, except when they've been proven to lie. Like Iraq. Like the made up scandals. But when they say, they want to tear down the country or hold Americans hostage or apologize to BP, I believe them. Why shouldn't I.
