The GOP, in a final attempt to show the nation that it is is now the Tea Party, has added another demand in their push to defund the Affordable Care Act, has acted to limit women's access to contraception. Yes, to the GOP, women having access to birth control is part of the budget. But in a way, that wasn't bad enough. No, when the House GOP voted in a caucus to force a showdown with the President, there was such a cheer in the chamber that it could be heard out in the halls by all the reporters. Then, when one of the GOP House members stepped out to talk to reporters, he said this bill proved that the GOP was winning. He then said that with this bill, they had boxed the Democratic Party into a corner, and the GOP was in a win-win situation. So, limiting birth control or shutting down the government is a win-win scenario?
Think Ronald Reagan thought not compromising, forcing the country into a take-it or leave- it situation, and a shut-down of government was governing? That's right, this isn't your parent's GOP. This is now the Tea Party, and to them, if you don't like it, lump it.
