In the name of stability and progress, Republican leaders have agreed with Democrats to put big government on autopilot — with no change in the programmed destination, full-blown socialism. On December 18, at Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)’s urging, 150 House Republicans voted to double down on the politics of surrender. Yesterday, we thought we had two parties, Republicans and Democrats, but now we see that we have only one, the Repubocrat Party, the party of No Shame. The Repubocrats’ federal budget abandons every promise made to Republican voters. Against criticism, they chant, “Obama made me do it!” while cowardly refusing to send Obama any bill worthy of his disdain. Folks, the zombies are not on television, they are in Washington, D.C., and they meet at the Capitol Hill Club and call themselves “Realists.” They are now celebrating their singular 2015 accomplishment: they avoided a government shutdown! Instead, they chose a shoot down: they have killed the spirit of accountability and hollowed out the meaning of representative government. The Republican majority in the House and Senate chose to surrender control of the budget to the Obama White House, producing a gargantuan spending plan that makes Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) smile. The $1.1 trillion Obama-Ryan budget will result in another deficit of over $400 billion dollars, with expenditures and grant programs for every special interest group lined up at the federal trough. They brag about a 2-year delay in the “Cadillac tax” on employer-sponsored health care plans, when it should have been repealed outright, not delayed. And, of course, there is no rollback of Obamacare itself. That will have to wait…and wait….and wait. If you listen carefully and decode the Beltway rhetoric, the apology offered by Republican leaders amounts to a confessional: Folks, talk of a third political party is passé. America doesn’t need a third party, it needs a second party, one with a pulse and a backbone. A brain would be nice, too. Rush Limbaugh got it dead right when he said after the new budget was unveiled, “We don’t even need a Republican Party if they’re gonna do this. Just disband the Republican party.” It has become painfully obvious that the only thing that will change the Republican Party’s direction is the forced retirement of a few dozen “party leaders” — beginning, yes, with Speaker Paul Ryan. The GOP establishment didn’t learn the lesson with Eric Cantor’s defeat in 2014, so in 2016, we need to “go big.” Purge the leadership or disband the thing and build something new from scratch. Paul Ryan wants his weekends free? Fine, let’s give him all 365 days free. Ryan says, quite literally, “I inherited a mess; next year will be different. Trust me on that.” Sure, “trust me,” and I have a bridge in the Mohave Desert you can have at a bargain price. As for myself, I left the GOP two months ago and am now an independent. But, to paraphrase our elected dictator, I have a phone and a pen and a political action committee, “TEAM AMERICA PAC.” I will try to raise a million dollars to help take out some of the 150 Republicans who betrayed our country by rubber stamping a plan for accelerating our slide into socialism, bankruptcy and chaos. There is work to be done. Conservatives and constitutionalists must find and support good candidates to replace the current congressional leadership — in Republican primaries where that is possible, or as independent challengers where necessary. To those who warn that this will lead to loss of the House majority, there is an easy answer. What difference does it make? We can do better; we must do better. Living on hypocrisy is not a healthy diet for patriots. 
Congress has adopted a 2016 federal budget that makes it official: The Republican Party and the Democrat Party have merged.

Pork spending is a way of life of Washington DC. The idea is simple to explain. The project spending stimulates the economy and creates jobs.
Exactly right. For some time now, I just about always vote for 3rd party. F the repuklicants. They can ESAD. The only one worth a damn as far as I know, is Jeff Sessions. I think the repukes have really pissed in the cheerios. Paul Ryan & Bitch McConnell are both horse asses Si vis pacem, para bellum Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.
