The GOP's Deliberate Sabotage

The GOP's Deliberate Sabotage.

It's been their strategy since day one. God forbid the 'unpleasantness' of it all sully those poor, poor 'reporters' fragile little minds.

The Washington Monthly:
"It's unpleasant to think about, and I really hope it's not true, but it may be time for a discussion about whether GOP lawmakers are trying to deliberately sabotage the economy to help their midterm election strategy. After all, these same Republicans have supported deficit-financed tax-extenders before -- there's no credible reason to change course now. On the contrary, with the economy struggling to break through, the need for this package is more obvious, not less, if your goal is to actually improve economic conditions."

Kenneth Jindal has 6000 NG at his disposal and has activated only 1500 all the while bitching that the Feds, who, as a Republican, he believes should not interfere in any-damn-thing, haven't supplied him with any resources.

See above.

Pattern of sabotage. High crimes, indeed.

And nobody gives a damn.

Seriously. Imagine the hyperventilation going on at FAUX News.

Just imagine it for a minute.

Courtland Milloy - Tolerance of white militias exemplifies racial double standard:
"Imagine that the inauguration of President George W. Bush had sparked an explosive rise in African American militia groups. Suppose thousands of heavily armed black men began gathering at training camps in wooded areas throughout the country, devising military tactics for 'taking back their country' after what they believed was an electoral coup.

Do you think Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney would have reacted to a black militaristic buildup as coolly as President Obama has to the phenomenal growth of white militias?"

I sure wish we'd passed health care instead of a health insurance bail-out.
