Have you heard that one lately? OF COURSE they are not going to suggest ways to help the liberal zealots of this land, in furthering their social justice and global warming agendas. Liberals have two out of three branches of the federal government in a strangle hold as things stand. And, there in lies much of the problem. Despite the fact that Republicans have been right at every turn for the past 5 years, ObamaCare is a laughable failure, there are STILL fewer folks working than when BHO took the oath of office, median income is down, etc, etc., Dems get by in dodging the bullets they so richly deserve while at the same time, tried and true statesmen and foreign policy experts of renown, are relegated to the side lines. Forced to watch as a bunch of rabid liberal chipmunks run amok on the world stage. The result? Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Afghanistan.

IMO, Republicans need to own that charge with pride, while pointing out the many legislative fixes they have offered only to have Dems pooh-pooh them out of hand. The Dems own the whole exacerbated mess. At least Repbulicans are talking like they understand the problems we face, having subsequently offered some very lucid solutions to enhance ObamaCare for example. And, having sent those solutions in the form of legislation to the Senate, whereupon Harry Reid gave it the same thoughtful consideration he's given everything else. Thus, it wound up stacked on top of the rest of the legislation that came up out of the House and is now dry rotting for lack of attention. :biggrin:
