James Lankford (R-OK) who is about has crazy as they come:

It is time for the House Republicans to do their job and vote on a clean CR (as well as the Debt Ceiling when the time comes). It is absurd for one faction of one party in one part of the Federal Government to hold this country hostage because they 1) did not like the outcome of the last election and 2) the passage, enactment, and the Supreme Court ruling on the ACA. The beaviour of the Republican Party in the House of Republicans is just like a temper tantrum thrown by a toddler because he/she did not get his/her way. We live in a democracy and the people have spoken. If the masses were so opposed to the ACA then we would now have Romney as our President. The time has come for the House Republicans to grow up and do their job. Failure to do so will result in irrevocable damage to your party while boosting the Democrats to a pretty good chance at taking back the House in 2014.

Secound thought, why don't you continue to drive this country over the cliff. It may be painful in the short run but would be the best thing that could happen to this country in the long term if it drives your party into permanent minority status for decades to come.




Yes, I know that it is hardly going to get through to him but this guy is bat shi** crazy (and a tea party nut) and would never listen to a rationale dialog anyways.
