How The GOP Is Working For You

Maybe I've been a little too hard on the Republicans, since John Boehner and his buddies insist they are working for YOU, the American People. So I thought I'd do a little rechecking to see if things had changed over the last 2 years: What I found is :

If all these folks on the Right want to do is make our life in this country worse, make it harder for students to get an education, denigrate the poor and unemployed, push women back into a second-class-citizen role, ruin the environment to gain a profit (through a false narrative being spread), mix politics and a conservative branch of religion into our government legislation...........I'll have to stick to my original opinions.


To quote a New York Times article today: So far, the House Republicans have done little but show that they have no real interest in governing.
