For anyone who thought that the GOP had learned a lesson from the debacle that was the government shutdown, the GOP wants you to know that they still have no plans to have a federal government. First they'll continue with getting this one not working, and then they'll shut down the whole thing for good. Don't believe me? First it was Senator Ted Cruz that said that he'd shut down the government again in January if he thought it would get rid of the Affordable Care Act. Then, Senator Lindsey Graham said that he planned on blocking every appointment in the Senate until another hearing on Benghazi called be called and every survivor speaks. This while several federal judges and the lead lawyer for the National Labor Relations Board is scheduled for a vote soon. Now, Senator Marco Rubio has told the rest of the GOP that they need to vote against the Immigration Act bill that has passed the Senate. The fact that the bill is actually HIS bill means he now is begging the GOP to vote against himself. If that's not the picture next to the definition of dysfunction, it needs to be.
For some, it was thought that the GOP learned something for the government shutdown they caused. Well, if they did learn anything, they learned that they really want the federal government shutdown for good, and they'll do anything to make it happen.
