House Republicans have lost sight of the country’s welfare. It’s hard to
conclude anything else from their latest actions, including the House
speaker’s dismissal of President Obama’s plea for compromise Monday
night. They have largely succeeded in their campaign to ransom America’s
economy for the biggest spending cuts in a generation. They have warped
an exercise in paying off current debt into an argument about future
spending. Yet, when they win another concession, they walk away.

This increasingly reckless game has pushed the nation to the brink of
ruinous default. The Republicans have dimmed the futures of millions of
jobless Americans, whose hopes for work grow more out of reach as
government job programs are cut and interest rates begin to rise. They
have made the federal government a laughingstock around the globe.

They are under the false illusion that Americans will continue to fall for "the Tax cut" mantra - while in actuality it is a Tax breaks for the richest (themselves). People - other than trailer trash and trailer-truck drivers - have realized the reality behind tax cuts. The republicans are going to lose big time in 2012. Everytime they win an election, they become stubborn like a mule on the worst policy - assuming they had won a "mandate"

There has not been decent republican since Lincoln.
