GOPer confesses obstruction tactics

They don't even bother to hide it anymore.
In an interview on CNBC, Sen. George Voinovich (R-OH) admits that at least half the opposition to health care reform is about scoring political points against President Obama rather than substantive policy disagreements.

Said Voinovich: "I think it's probably 50/50."
I'm sure he was greatly understating the ratio. They haven't put forward a single substantive policy disagreement yet. They spend all their time inventing slogans and making meaningless but colorful charts. Sociopathic savants. Video at the link.

Used to be a bumper sticker down here: "Don't tell my mother I work in the oil patch. She thinks I'm the piano player at the whorehouse."

That's about where the GOP is today... better to be clueless than well-defined.

If they put forth ideas or policy proposals, there will be a discussion, and voters will remember what happens when they actually get into office.

It is better to be silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
