Are they traitors to their voters?


2 years ago they had a huge victories in both house and senate, since then have given Obama victory after victory.

He can't even stop this climate change deal, which he could, like his predecessor, just not allow the bill to hit the floor.

And then we have Boehner (Boner), he's a weaksauce pushover. And people are tired of it.

Ahh Old Bawl Baby Boehner and Son of a Mitch McConnell.

And yes. Yes they are traitors.

They should be tried for treason.

Or worse. Kick them out of office and not let them go begging to the Press to be let on TV.

Have you noticed how all the liberals here don't criticize republicans anymore since these two dummies have changed skin?

Excellent. Excellent. Let them consume each other.

You would like that but you don't see the harm this does to the voters. But like you care, you have no conscious.

The biggest benefit to being a Liberal Progressive.

What did they do that was treasonous though? Being a pushover or failing to stop a climate change deal wouldn't exactly equate to treason.

The Republican party eating itself right now is the best thing for the American people

My conscious > your conscious

Thats the worst thing that could happen, unless you think 50% of the people don't deserve a voice in government.

No, it's the best thing as I just said

Those 50% have a voice, they're free to vote however they want

They voted for these two dongs and got nothing.

Then those who voted, should vote differently next time if they feel cheated, no?

They aren't traitors, and here's why:

Because the US congress is designed to require compromise unless you have well over a simple majority, and they've never had a supermajority, but they've been making promises that require it while also refusing to make deals- and their constituents have demanded they not make deals.

When they were slightly behind, this resulted in the Democrats barely getting anything done, so to completely no shock to me or most people who track the numbers, the situation is the exact same when they similarly have only a slim lead.

What they and many republicans are guilty of is overpromising, but really it's rock-and-a-hard-place for them.


You can't both get stuff done and never work with the other side, and those are the two demands giving to them. As the stuff they want done is often just 'stop the other side,' they've erred on the side of 'not letting the other side do anything either,' and gladly taken up the banner of the 'party of no,' and that's why we end up here: No one getting anything done in congress because they aren't willing to make deals.


The United States government is simply not set up in a way to let groups without more election wins than they've got to do what they want without dealing with the other party.

Doesn't matter if it's Boehner and McConnell, Ted Cruz, or whoever. In some cases they can cause damage in a hissy fit for not getting their way, but they do not have the votes to get their way and the reason for that is and has always been simple number-of-seats math.

McConnell represents my home state of Kentucky. He needed to be out a long time ago in my opinion.

So that explains why he is a drunken idiot.
