Do we owe an apology to the Tea Party and GOP in general?
Now that the reality of the detrimental healthcare law is coming down on Americans, should we recognize the group that was trying to stop it in the first place? I mean, the public blamed republicans for the government shutdown but now that we realize what they were trying to prevent should we be thanking them?
I know I wish they would have held out, through default and everything, until democrats finally agreed to change something about this horrible law. My choices are change coverage or pay higher premiums. Both of which Obama promised wouldn't happen. I think we all owe the GOP a big apology and a thank you for their fight against the unaffordable healthcare act (obamacare) on capitol hill. Will you help fix things next election?

The thing that angers liberals is that cons can say "I told you so" and everyone knows they are correct.

Sure if I know of any with TP connections I'll work for their removal.
And know what? That's what about seventy percent of Americans feel about the Republican party.
I've never been all that fond of the way Democrats run their campaigns, but the Republicans just keep on handing us the wins. Every time they get in office they screw up so badly that even the poorly run Democrats come in to make it all better.

Clearly you are an uninformed person, having the country default and the government shut down is unacceptable, and we can't change anything, even if we the people vote everybody out of office for a new guy that new guy will also be a you know what, until term limits are put Into affect and a way for middle class working people to get into office our country will continue on a downward spiral.

That's their prayer, but they really know that if Obamacare becomes a popular success (and the only gripe people have is that it didn't go far enough, rather than was too big) then people will recognize which party was trying to stop it, going as far as shutting the government down and harming the entire country's economy, and punish them in the polls.

The thing about the liberal mentality is that they are incapable of thinking anything through. And even when proven wrong, they lash out like a child and start calling names. Personally,I don't trust any liberal over the age of three.

The Tea Party has always been against overspending. Who can afford this:

I never blamed the Tea Party people. They pay taxes and want fairness. They're getting ripped off.

I don't have to apologize since I support Rand Paul and Ted Cruz for their efforts to defund this monster called Obama Care.
