Would you make up your mind, GOP.

For the life of me, I have no idea what the GOP is trying to say most of the time. But when it come to the ACA, they really are bending over backwards to take every side they can.

To start with, the GOP wants the ACA to go away, and as quickly as possible. Then, they complain that the system to sign in isn't running well enough. Okay GOP, which one is it? You can'r complain that you want a system gone but complain it isn't running well enough. But then, to top it off, they want Secretary of HHS, the department that is running the ACA, to be fired for not having the site running well. But, wasn't the HHS one of the Cabinet departments that you wanted to eliminate? Again GOP, what do you want?

Secondly, Former Vice-President Dick Cheney this weekend railed against the deficit. But wait, weren't you part of the Reagan administration that said deficits weren't bad? Then, as Vice-President, didn't you and Bush #43 cut taxes and run 2 wars, which was mostly kept of the books so the American people wouldn't see the deficits the administration was accumulating? You surely can't argue one way, run the government the same way, but then change sides and complain when other administrations do the same thing, can you? Actually, after meeting you back in the 80s, maybe you could.

Then, there's Steve Lonegan, who lost the New Jersey Senate election, had the nerve to say after the election last Wednesday that he thought so little of the Senate that he doesn't understand why anyone would run for a seat and was glad he lost. Huh? You just spent several months running, and now you're glad you lost? But wait! Today, you said the only reason you lost was due to the government shutdown. Want to try that again, Steve? Which way do you it, that it you wanted to win, that it doesn't matter if you that you lost, or you could have won if things had worked out different?

I normally don't understand why the GOP takes the view they take on many issues. But it really makes it tough when you take all sides of an argument and complain about all of the sides the next day. Really GOP, would you make up your mind? At least then, you'll only be wrong about 1 side of an argument.
