I’m going to try to write like Grokster Ed – short and sweet. IF the GOP actually believed in what they say AND do what say they believe, this post wouldn’t exist. You could ALSO say that if the Party officials actually instituted some discipline on their elected and appointed officials, this post wouldn’t exist, either.
Background:
Twenty-seven GOP lawmakers, including 18 senators and nine House Republicans, voted in favor of passing the around $1.7 trillion monstrosity that ran thousands of pages long — Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was one the GOP senators who voted in favor of passing the behemoth measure. President Joe Biden signed it on Thursday.
Stick in the Eye to the GOP Base:
Republicans believe in limited government.
— GOP (@GOP) December 28, 2022
And yes, the NH GOP has the same “belief” (here, first “Principle”) and acts contrary to that belief as well. They act like the national Party as well.
Well, LOTS of Conservatives raked the Tweet from the Republican National Committee over that line. And few, if any, admitted to not reading it. Yet, every election time they try to cozy up to the base stating the exact belief. And as soon as some of these nitwits hear the last syllable of their oath fade in the room, “limited Government” becomes a foreign language. Instead we hear “look what I’ve done for YOU!” but never say the complementary words that SHOULD be said: “and with your money!”
Unfortunately for us, we haven’t had a Republican in our NH Federal Delegation for years so we try to keep our local electeds accountable.
It may well be that it won’t happen until the money well goes dry on its own. Then there will be no saving ANY of us.
