Does the GOP know what it's saying?

It seems that whenever anyone in the GOP talks these days, everyone has to just shake their heads, and say, "I can't believe what they just said." I'm not sure the GOP knows what they are saying any more.

When President Obama went out and proposed a bill to lower corporate tax rate, close loopholes, and use the extra money to fund jobs and education, House Speaker John Boehner dismissed it, saying President Obama was simply on the campaign trail giving people money, without even looking at the proposal. Then Speaker Boehner added that if his approval polls were as low as the President, he'd do the same thing. What did you say, Speaker? The President's approval rating isn't good, in the high 40s, but your approval rating and the rating of Congress is at 12%. Do you know what you're saying?

When New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul started getting into their basic pissing contest, Governor Christie said that libertarians like Rand Paul, who believe the federal government should stay out of people's lives, should go see and meet people who have been helped by money from Hurricane Sandy Relief. Senator Paul came beck that it was people like Governor Christie and their "Give me, give me, give me, give me money" attitude that has made our military weak and underfunded. Senator Paul, you're a libertarian, right? Then you don't believe in a strong central federal government or a strong military. Senator, do you know what you're saying?

Texas Senator Ted Cruz said that he hoped the House and Senate GOP wouldn't pass next year's federal budget there was any money in it for the Affordable Care Act. Senator Cruz said that it needed to happen this year because if people got use to the bill, they'd like it and not want it repealed. He then said if the GOP didn't pass a budget and a government shutdown happened, the country would see it was really President Obama's fault. So Senator, you want people not to have the bill so they won't like it, and you'd shut down the government but President Obama would get the blame. Senator, do you know what you're saying?

You know, the GOP keep talking, and I know what they're saying, but I wonder if the GOP knows what it is saying.
