Is this the kind of attitude that dominates the republican party today?

"Rep. Kris Crawford, a Republican from Florence and also an emergency room doctor, supports the expansion of medicaid but expects the Republican caucus to vote as a block against the Medicaid expansion.

"The politics are going to overwhelm the policy. It is good politics to oppose the black guy in the White House right now, especially for the Republican Party," Crawford said.

As it turns out, "the politics" were so successful in "overwhelming the policy" that Crawford himself voted against the policy he said he supports."

So in other words, don't vote what you believe... just vote against Obama even if you agree with him.

And you wonder why nothing can get done in Washington!!

Update:

Lyle, it's called "Google". that's your source. stop asking people to spoon feed you, that way you'll find out the facts for yourself.

Update 2:

@No question...I have found your "source" to be false many times. They are nothing but a part of the right wing gossip grapevine, sorry. That's a fact.They have no accountability to be honest.

    I'd like to see a source please.

    Actually right there at the bottom of your screen, where it says What's your source? That's where you post your source. I'm not going to run down a google link to find out w/e retarded ramblings you're attempting to justify.

    However, if you want to question what kind of attitude dominates political parties? How about this habit of your beloved liberals constantly wanting more and more entitlement programs, not because they've earned them, or because they deserve them, but because it's fair.

    Unlike you however, I can provide sources.(see below)

    Merry Christmas, and enjoy.

    I can't believe it took you this long to realize that the only goal Republicans have is to get Obama out of office at any expense, except of course, raising taxes on the corporations.

    Yes, and it happened to Bush too.

    A lot of this is Obama's fault as well. He has been dismissive, condescending, arrogant and unbelievably partisan. The great uniter has disenfranchised anyone who has a dissenting view and they have become angry and obstinate.

    It would appear so. The office of president is domestically so weak. To the point it puts pluralism ahead of democracy
