Almost like watching the news from another country

It's not the country I grew up in.

News is always negative. If it's good news, it isn't news.  That's always been true.  But the stuff nowadays...

Boner says they can't stop the Iran deal.  Really?  You've got GOP control of both houses and you can't stop the Iran deal?  Conservatives fear that the GOP leadership won't repeal Obamacare.  Really?  How did the GOP get back into control if it weren't for opposition to Obamacare?  Recently, I heard that the Fast Track Trade Authority will negate any enforcement of immigration laws.  Really?  Tell me again what the big issue was in last year's elections.  Wasn't it immigration?  And they want to give Obama MORE power over it????

A conservative says he wants to unleash the power of "no".  Really?  Then why do you stick with a party that refuses to do what they were elected to do?  Conservatives are powerless because they choose to be powerless.  They refuse to do anything that will move the needle on the insanity meter back towards normal behavior.  He points at liberals, but they need to take a good hard look at themselves in the mirror.  They are being walked on because they let themselves be walked upon.  He thinks he needs to say no to liberals.  He needs to say no to the establishment wing of his own party and separate from them.  They couldn't get elected dogcatcher without conservative support.

But they'll never do that.  Why?  I dunno.  Maybe most of what you hear is Bravo Sierra.  That includes what you hear from so-called conservatives.  Unleashing the power of "no"?  Ain't gonna happen.  If it was gonna happen, it woulda already.

Anyone out there know what's really going on?
