Bottom line: the Republican Party is now officially and utterly without excuse. There is no place left for them to flee, no place of refuge to hide from the responsibility to fulfill their own promises. They have no place to run from their own constituents, the people who delegated to them every bit of political power they have.

When we complained about the monstrosity that is ObamaCare, Republicans told us they needed the House. The House controls the power of the purse, they told us, and we can stop President Obama’s bad stuff by defunding it. Elect us, they told us, and we’ll get ObamaCare and runaway government spending under control.
So the Tea Party was formed, and sure enough, in 2010 we gave the Republican Party the House.
And what did we get? Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch. All of the president’s priorities were fully funded, and the debt continued to mushroom.
So in 2014 we gave the Republican Party the Senate.
And what did we get? Nothing. Zip. Nada. Zilch. Every bit of the president’s agenda, including ObamaCare and unconstitutional and illegal immigration policy was funded to the hilt. The Republicans, in full control of Congress, publicly refused even to consider an Obama-engineered shutdown of the government (even though 83% of it continues to hum right along, shutdown or no shutdown).
So in 2016 we gave Republicans the White House. The Republican Party, the self-proclaimed party of personal responsibility, smaller government, and Judeo-Christian moral values, is now in charge of the House, the Senate, and the White House.
They are in charge of the entire federal government. Bottom line: the Republican Party is now officially and utterly without excuse. There is no place left for them to flee, no place of refuge to hide from the responsibility to fulfill their own promises. They have no place to run from their own constituents, the people who delegated to them every bit of political power they have.
