No point to GOP winning Senate, 'They just passed a $1 trillion budget gimmick and justify every pusillanimous surrender openly as the only way they can avoid a government shutdown'-Commenter

.
1/18/14, Commenter knows "Republicans winning a majority" in the Senate will mean nothing different from Democrats winning. (Comment on a Free Republic thread about a Republican winning a special election in Arkansas)

 

"Even if the Republicans prevail and take a majority in the Senate, how much will it matter? If speaker Boehner and newly elected Majority Leader McConnell are running the Congress in the shadow of Barack Obama's veto pen, what will they do that differs from what they did when they had majorities under George Bush?

 

Mark Levin is the one who is making this point consistently, the Republicans have not even written a bill repealing Obamacare. The Republican elites are preparing not to repeal it but to shape it. The same elites are going to pass amnesty to appease the Chamber of Commerce and collect their campaign contributions. They have just passed a $1 trillion budget gimmick and they justify every pusillanimous surrender openly as the only way they can avoid a government shutdown.

Is there any bright and shining historic stand that these people have taken which gives us genuine hope that they will actually change the headlong course the country is taking toward tyranny and disaster?
