2. You know the saddest part.....

they had the house, senate and presidency not that long ago and the only thing they did was start 2 wars, cut more taxes and increase the deficit, yet these idiots think the same people would do different next time? What do they give these idiots that makes them so gullible.

3. Good post, I hope the Repubs don't listen to reason though. I enjoy the show.

Hopefully their radical members like the, "we are at war guy", force them to slit their own throats.

I wonder why they want to slit their own throats when it comes to retirement??
They going to save their own money, put it into walls street, increase retirement age??
