Republicans To Conservatives: Go To Hell

You, you damned Conservatives, you're making the lives of DC Republicans difficult.

Because of that, there is now "pushback" and whining from the GOP.

Not just whining, but finger-pointing, negative rhetoric, and the accusation that "you Conservatives just don't get it."

Really?
This tactic is so tired and so obvious that even the historic carriers of GOP Water are beginning to turn on the GOP -- to wit: Hugh Hewitt. His interview with Jack Kingston?

Here is an actual unguarded opinion from the GOP, aimed directly at TEA Partiers, true Conservatives and various budget hawks. One GOP aide unloaded on the Conservatives, offering a more colorful view privately held by many other Republicans. From the DailyCaller:

These people aren’t thinking clearly. Their logic doesn’t pan out. They have NO plan. What concessions were they going to get if it failed? They were going to shut down the federal government over Planned Parenthood?” the source said, “It was totally reactionary. These people got elected to lead. Instead they got jerked around by the political equivalent of music critics. If these people knew anything about governing, they’d be in Congress, not lobbing bombs from the cheap seats and sending out fundraising emails.”

The aide offered contempt for Pence in particular. “Pence is running for governor, and has to get through a primary, so his position is about as genuine as a $10 Gucci hand bag on Sunset Boulevard.”

Mike Pence appeared on Hugh Hewitt on Wednesday, and revealed that he (Pence) is in the gunsights of the GOP for his defunding stances. 54 Republicans actually deigned to vote against the three week extension of the federal budget. At least some Republicans made a stand. But this stance infuriated Welded Republicans -- who Have Theirs and want Theirs to be a continuing well-funded process.

Where are the Speaker and the Leader and the Whip? Where is their support of the various TEA Parties and Conservatives -- who managed to PLACE GOP leadership back into the House come November?

George McClellan Republicans? Retreat - retreat - retreat?

The GOP "growing tired" of actual Conservatives?

Some veteran Republican House members are pushing back against conservative deficit hawks who are pushing for endlessly deep spending cuts, saying the right wing of the party is creating unnecessary divisions for the GOP majority.

While the 54 Republicans who voted against the most recent stopgap spending bill didn’t derail the legislation, some GOP lawmakers are becoming increasingly wary of a faction that rejects substantial spending cuts because they want deeper ones or the inclusion of divisive social policy riders.

Right. Conservatives "don't get it." You don't "get it." I "don't get it."

When you are beginning to lose your public Water Carriers -- Republicans -- I submit you are in some major jeopardy.

You, Republicans, clearly failed to read the writings on the wall.

What have you learned from November?

I submit this: you've got yours. You sit in your office. 54 Republicans made a stand. And they threaten you.

You're doing primarily nothing but force a Third Party -- something that, in reality, few people truly want.
