Spineless GOP

In violent times
You should have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really, really ought to know
--Tears for Fears

Congressional GOP members revealed their RINO core once again by teaming with Democrats to pass a two year spending deal: H.R. 1892, the Bipartisan Budget Act. The Act promises to elevate annual federal budget deficits north of $1 trillion--a level matched only by the early Obama administration years (Quick quiz: How must such budget deficits be funded? Answer to be discussed in a future post).


A few Republicans (e.g., Rand Paul, Thomas Massie, Justin Amash) held firm. Much of the same crowd that held firm on Obamacare repeal. Some of their pushback that calls out the GOP hypocrisy is captured below.


Judge Nap follows with this question:
What kind of politician, your honor? Why, the spineless GOP type, of course.
