Will they finally throw Grover off the bus?

By ye works ye shall know them.

Those Republicans that continue to be glued to the Grover Norquist pledge have no intent of working in a bi-partisan fashion.

This is the measuring stick. Will they continue their loyalty to Grover? That will tell us all we need to know about the "new" Republican Party.

1. One would think, but.... BTW, kentuck, will you take the hit and listen to Limbutt for us today?

I dearly hate to ask, but my stomach is not strong enough, though I'd dearly love a little Limbutt schadenfreude....

4. I think it might be enjoyable...

I will try to catch a little of it. After all, the Tea Party and the extremists will all be tuned in to get their marching orders. Was it Sun Tsu that said know your friends but know your enemies better?

2. what we need to is the new crop of GOP...

if they sign up with Grover, is publicize the list... make the pledge an albatross on day one...

3. Don't hold your breath

I think the anti-tax beliefs are the closest thing the Modern Republican Party comes to and actual belief system.

5. Grover is getting big bucks to keep this scam going, it is time to cut the pay.

We should start targeting every Congress member who dares to sign this pledge. They should have one oath, to the citizens of the US and not to Grover. I have heard if the Bush tax cuts are allowed to expire then the Grover Oath will be void and it will let out all the less than intelligent ones who signed this dumb oath. It is about running the business of a nation and not lining the pockets of those who pay Grover. They have been hired to work for the citizens, paid by the citizens and if they want to work for Grover then he needs to provide salary and benefits and not suck off the government welfare program of salaries for our Congress members.

6. Say it ain't so.

First Big Bird and now this?

8. Or under it.

9. If they don't change something

the midterms are going to be very interesting for us.

10. Nope...

I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the Adleson or Wynn household today...all that money pissed away for NOTHING. The same with the Kochs...but I don't think we're done with them yet.

The problem is that Democrats fell asleep in 2010 that allowed the money and the teabaggers to make big gains and after licking some wounds these goons will be back in two years to create havoc again. Grover will be right there with them...as I expect the rushpublican house to be as obstinate and obstructionist as ever and that will keep him viable.

While I would hope last night's results are enough to push the self-destruct button on the right wing hate machine, it will take at least one or two more beatings like this to break the back of this corrupt and inept excuse of a party...

Cheers...
