The GOP has their beer goggles on.

Listening to the GOP today, I swear they are just like a man late at night after a few drinks in a bar-- The GOP has their beer goggles on. To listen the GOP, they are fighting for those that elected them in 2010, the entire country agrees with them, and no one who disagrees with them knows anything about facts and figures, and feel the other side is ethically wrong and morally bankrupt. The Tea Party simply can't see the truth: The ACA was the central issue of the 2012 election, and they lost. They lost the Presidency, lost seats in the Senate, and although they held the house, 1.5 million more people voted for the Democrats than for the GOP. Also, so far, everything that the GOP has railed against in the ACA has been proven false. Insurance rates are going to be less for 98% of Americans under the ACA than they were before the law was enacted. There are no "Death Panels". And instead of blowing a whole in the budget, the ACA will actually save money. Finally, those that don't see the world as the same way as the Tea Party do simply see the world differently. There is no hole automatically in their heads, hearts, or souls.

Just like a man in a bar late at night after a few drinks, the GOP can't see the truth right in front of them, and can only see things the way they wish they were. The GOP has their beer goggles on. Too bad they'll still have them on in the morning.
