GOP pulls punches

I see Republicans failing to win the Senate in November the same way they lost the last two presidential races: by not fighting for America.

Mitt Romney lost the last race early on when he pulled his punch during the second debate. Republicans have repeatedly pulled their punch during the Obama reign.

Republicans have capitulated when it comes to stopping or even slowing President Obama’s catastrophic deficit spending, even though they have the constitutional power of the purse.

Republicans have capitulated when it comes to stopping Obamacare and holding the Obama administration accountable for the many unconstitutional acts.

With regard to amnesty for the millions in our country illegally, the Republican leadership, which includes Cathy McMorris Rodgers, has shown it is willing to support amnesty rather than ensure America’s borders are secure.

Republicans are desperate for money and support, yet they continue to trash the very people who gave them the House of Representatives in 2010, and who can give them the Senate in November – citizens who want to return America to its founding principles.

Why should we give our vote to a party that is ineffective and has contempt for the majority of Americans? I’d really like to know.
