The Pew Research Center poll below shows that
Americans are unhappy with the GOP led Congress. Americans are disgusted as
Republican congressional leaders have a 22% overall approval rating.
The poll shows this anger is bi-partisan. Only
41% of Republicans approve of the performance of the GOP congressional
leadership.
It’s Obvious that congressional Republicans are
not advancing a conservative agenda or stopping President Obama. Almost every
Republican congressional candidate campaigned against Obamacare and the
President’s executive amnesty for five million illegal aliens, Congress voted to fund both programs.
The GOP leadership in Congress, especially Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker John Boehner, are establishment
Republicans who have been in office way too long. They are opposed to the Tea
Party and true conservatives and have no interest in real reform or following
the wishes of grassroots Republicans. This betrayal of conservatism is
reflected in the Pew poll.
Nothing has been accomplished except the
Keystone Pipeline bill, which the President vetoed, and the House passed bill
ending abortions after the 20th week of pregnancy. On almost everything else,
there has been a lot of arm waving and talk, but no action.
The Senate approved the radical nomination of
Loretta Lynch as Attorney General and just gave Obama a major victory by
approving legislation giving him more power to enact trade deals.
If another establishment Republican is nominated
and shoved down the throats of the grassroots Republicans, millions of
conservatives will be ticked and will leave the GOP by the thousands. Republicans
may again lose the White House. Source
