CAN THE GOP HELP GOVERN WHILE IN THE MINORITY?
I don't get it. Being "obstructionist" isn't necessarily a negative thing: if the GOP can show America how bad ALL of the current Dem health plans are, and prevent any them from being passed, that's great -- kind of like standing in the way of a criminal, obstructing his aims to hurt somebody or rob their house.
So many Republicans just meekly accept the labels Democrats and the dying MSM try to slap on us, and it's mind-boggling to me. We're obstructionist, we're the party of No, and these are awful things to be, and blah blah blah. No, I don't think so. We're obstructing *bad* policy, we're saying No to legislation that will *hurt* our country. We are doing the right thing, and we can explain to voters why we are.
"Helping" the Democrats "govern" means helping them advance their far-left plans for America -- and that's the last thing we should be doing. We should be standing in their way, doing all we can to block them at every turn. Doing so, we will indicate to the electorate how we *will* govern, if they forgive our past betrayal of our own stated principles.
