WASHINGTON (AP) — The barbs are personal, the differences are multiplying among Republicans, a party divided over spending, foreign policy, a willingness to risk a government shutdown in order to defund the health care law and more.
“I didn’t start this one and I don’t plan on starting things by criticizing other Republicans,” Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky said recently as he and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie likened one another to various cuts of a butchered pig.
“But if they want to make me the target, they will get it back in spades.”
No matter who started it, in the past few months, one Republican called others “wacko birds,” another said some of the party’s lawmakers were “stale and moss-covered” and a third suggested one member of the GOP was a tool of the White House.
they've tried going on 5 years to bloody his nose he stayed on a level minded pursuit to bring the country to vibirance again he is succeeding slowly but that is from republican obstruction not because he failed in any way and all they have to show for all the skulduggery, internal civil war, those they embraced tearing them a part, favorables will you judge for yourself
A recent flare-up over defunding the health law prompted Texas Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas to question the political manhood of fellow Republicans unwilling to risk closing down the government over the future of “Obamacare,” as GOP critics call the law they want to repeal. “They’re scared of being beaten up politically,” he said.Not all the disagreements are dipped in acrimony. Some are re-emerging after the party papered over its differences in an unsuccessful campaign to defeat President Barack Obama last year. This spring, 14 Senate Republicans supported legislation that included a chance at citizenship for millions living in the country illegally. The other 32 opposed it, including the entire top leadership.In some cases, though, policy or strategic differences are overshadowed as Republicans simply call one another names, a type of clash that frequently pits newer, tea party-backed lawmakers against more experienced conservatives.Two months ago, Sen. John McCain of Arizona likened Cruz, Paul and others to “wacko birds” for their style of confrontational politics.
they are being taken down almost single handed by the bane of their existence, which just goes to show hate breeds nothing but resentment, resentment of self for allowing yourself the indulgence to ruin lives and countries in the name of what you have no idea of, of all their titles they have no leader and don't know who or what they actually stand for.
they will go down in history the entire right wing party as being defeated by one Black Man they resent having to call "Mr. President Barack Hussein Obama.
