The silence of the lambs

[kentuck]

Republicans are content to sit back and let Ted Cruz take all the heat for the government shutdown. But what are they doing to stop it? We can only assume that their silence is consent?

Voters should place the blame where it belongs - squarely on the shoulders of the entire Party. They are accessories to the conspiracy. They cannot say that they fought the shutdown if our economy collapses and they should all pay the price.

Most Republicans are in hiding. They don't have the courage to speak out. They are putting the Tea Party interests over the interests of their country. It is nothing short of betrayal and they should all be held accountable.

1. Maybe we should refine that brand - to "the silence of the chickens."

3. I favor "Silence of the Weasels." /nt

2. Cruz is the one who's the GOP's sacrificial lamb

the real question is, does he know it? Does he realize that he's going to be disposed of when this is all over because he'll be political box office poison?

4. THIS is the message that we must sell to a majority of Americans b/c it's true.

Any message that blames the Tea Party, Ted Cruz, Boehner, etc. hides the hideous nature of the entire Republican Party itself.

The whole steenkin' Party is a diseased and rotting corpse that is infecting and destroying the U.S.
