GOP Idiocy Commentary: with Addendum

These comments are all in quotes because someone else wrote them in various commentary on the current actions of the House GOP.

"If Agencies are bloated and overfunded, Congress should trim them appropriately.  Sequestration is the brain-dead way to reduce government spending.  It is a sign of my persistent delusional optimism and mental deterioration that I cling to the belief that brain-dead is a standard of governance that our leaders can potentially surpass."

"If not all Americans are entitled access to health insurance, shouldn't elected officials be on record as to whether they believe that health care is a fundamental human right."

"The GOP House have a lot in common with Al Qaeda.  If they don't get their way, they try to use weapons of mass destruction to harm their enemies.  They are anarchists who do not believe in formal government.  Is there any process for impeaching such Congressman of treason for failing to run the government properly?"

And all of this is distorting the financial markets.  It is very hard to figure this out and trade it profitably.

Addendum:  Now that the House has passed their continuing funding bill without any funding for ObamaCare, the GOP House members are behaving like 5 years olds saying "if the Senate doesn't pass our bill, we won't pass their bill."  and "if they won't negotiate with us, we won't negotiate with them".

Government is about negotiation and acknowledging that when someone wins an election, their policies direct the government with negotiation on certain points from the minority.  ObamaCare was passed by the Congress, signed by the President and upheld by the Supreme Court.  Before the GOP can do anything about that, they need to win elections that give them control.  That is the way Democracy works.  Anything else is tyranny by the minority.
