GOP Whine-A-Rama

So, it appears the reason why the GOP can't get anything done in Congress, for instance something inconsequential like ratification of the START treaty, is because Christmas is coming and they have to get on home for the holiday. Oh, sorry.... what about our soldiers? What about normal everyday Americans who have to go to work on Christmas? What about Doctors and Nurses?

What about the business of the American people that the Republicans have stalled and filibustered all year? Senators McConnell and Kyl are out there, on national television, whining that there is no time to take care of any of it. They have run out the clock, wasted a year, and now they just want to go Christmas Shopping at the mall.

My favorite conservative Joe Scarborough was blown away by the craven behavior of his former GOP colleagues and mused on his MSNBC show this morning...these are not serious people. To quote my least favorite conservative, You Betcha Joe!
