So I ask, who would hire a person who has signed pledged to insure they will not do their job? Or who has said that they believe the job is not of any value?

I don't think Republicans were always like this. In the past there were many who really cared, but now is seems like the more they screw things up, the more they please their base. How is rewarding that brazen lust for power, coupled with complete and militant incompetence, a good idea for the rest of us?

Blah blah - whatever. Like your guys aren't the biggest control freaks on the face of the planet.

Please re-read - you wouldn't have typed that post if you had understood.

Both parties are in the wrong.

I am just showing that this thread is false as the Democrats screw up and deny it too.

Thank you!

This is why I have no respect for CD conservatives.
