Considering that the GOP has passed over 100 bills since 2010, while the Democrats in the Senate have passed absolutely nothing, in addition, the GOP has passed a budget. The Dems have kept spending off the books for the purpose of not wanting to be held accountable for taking a position.
I'll not bow down to your idea of what constitutes substance, but will post and provide My thoughts on what and why I would prefer a ham sandwich to just about any Democrat proposal.
That okay with you?
LOL! Sorry if the tenor of the thread reflected my frustration in not being able to get a straight answer from a single ConservaRepub as to why they would vote for their own party.
So your contention is that, the Dems are bad because since the GOP took control of the House, they haven't been able to get anything passed? I would say the GOP just might have something to do with that.
However, your point about the GOP's budget is valid. Good to see a ConservaRepub actually make a point. That has been extremely rare in this thread.
Although the Ryan Plan does virtually nothing about the deficit, it's better than anything Obama and the Dems have come up with.
Well, that really isn't My point. My point is, that I mostly favor the GOP because they promote, or at least speak about those values I tend to favor, and oppose those values I think are wrong for the country.
Getting into the weeds about whether or not the GOP has accomplished those things I favor is really a worthless discussion. I have no control over who blocks what bills, how bills are sabotaged by the opposition, and how who within the GOP really sympathizes with the Dems for the purpose of keeping their jobs and power.
For what it is worth;
I'm for any politician who actually will vote to cut spending. I do not buy into the argument that in order to have compassion for people; the government must spend money. Throwing money at a problem using government programs is like trying to solve breathing air through a tube while in the deep cold of outer space.
I am for anything and anyone who will actually return government to its cage and limit its power to that which is authorized by the Constitution.
I am for anything and anyone who will defend this country and not buy into the moronic argument that we only have to spend as much as "ONE" of our enemies, when, in fact, we have dozens of them. This argument that we spend 100s of times the money of our nearest competitor is a deliberate attempt to disarm this country. We have to defend ourselves from nearly 100 million troops.
I am for anything the returns the Rights of the many States back to the States and the people. Social justice is a failed premise, and if it is implemented at all, should be done so as far down the food chain as possible. Preferably social justice goes away completely.
That is just the broad and general overview that encompasses nearly every problem we face in this country.
Get out of the economy, get out of the lives of the citizens, and get out of bribing the voters for power.
Anyone for that, is alright in My book.
