One charge: Leadership never worked with members in crafting Plan B. “We walked into conference” on Monday, one Republican member told me, “and we were told, ‘Here it is. Here’s what we’re going to do.’ “

Weeper Boner has been pulling that same stunt since he was first, stupidly, voted into the Weepership – which is why he should have been unceremoniously tossed from that post back in March of 2011. Boner thinks that he’s out there working for himself, a little crybaby King who can do anything he wants and the GOP and conservatives have to come along with him and his stupidity. That’s how we got ObamaCare lasting all through these years, CR after CR, debt limit raise after debt limit raise, no budget for the duration of Boner’s Weepership, this pathetic Sequester that Boner and his buddies are all scared to death of … and the pathetic loss in 2012 to the worst, most inept, most incompetent, criminal, ineligible America-hating retard in all of American history with the worst stats and environment around (thanks to his economy-killing and America-killing policies). Between Boner and Romney, few people saw them defending anything, even though they were the last line of defense for America. So, that’s that.

voters: “but the republicans didn’t stand in the way….this is your plan, isn’t it?”

You give the average voter too much credit. Here’s how it REALLY happens:

Repubs resist = the party of NO!
Repubs vote present = the Do-Nothing party!
Repubs go along to get along = WE ARE ALL TOO BLAME!!!

People love to criticize government but insulate their respective rep from criticism, believing he can do no wrong.

Weepy the Oompah-Loompah is remarkably firm and tough versus fiscal and social conservatives.

Against Mad Barky, and other fellow lefties: not so much.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Let the Dems own it completely.

Vote “present”, then scamper home and explain to the people who put you in office why. No need for a national consensus.

In a relatively short time (politically speaking), the Dems will have have scamper home and explain to their constituents WTF happened.

Rep: “blah blah blah republicans blah blah blah”

voters: “but the republicans didn’t stand in the way….this is your plan, isn’t it?”

FIFY
