What about what the WINNING constituency wants, Marsha Blackburn (R-Lying Shill)

She's once again all over the newz, blathering the same blather about how the ONLY way to cut the debt it stop every entitlement program on Earth. She said that everywhere she goes, her constituents are telling her they're tired of paying for programs they don't like.

WTF? What about the party that WON THE ELECTION and even BEAT THE HOUSE REPUBLICANS IN ACTUAL VOTES CAST? What about US? I am tired of paying for wars I don't like, I'm tired of paying for corporate tax breaks I don't like, I'm tired of paying for Wall Street gambling, I'm tired of paying for Mitt Romney's carried interest and capital gains...I'M TIRED OF IT. And our party WON, and controls 2/3 of the government. Why is it ONLY the lying POS Republicans who are to be listened to, Marsha? How about thinking about your COUNTRY for a change?!

You only Represent TENNESSEE! Why should the people on the coasts and in New England care about ONLY what the people of Tennessee want? How about if we start by cutting 100% of the Federal funds which flow into your state. After all, your constituents receive far more than they pay in. Seems like a good place to start, then you can explain the math to them.

She is picking up where Bachmann left off. She represents the well-to-do in Tennessee and throws the middle-class and indigent under the bus. All that aside, she is not particularly bright. She and Corker both are appalling. Once again, Republicans have no shame.

She is a horrible person. She would fill Bachmann's psycho shoes perfectly.

She thinks Bachmann has tanked and the GOP will be looking for a female VP candidate. She's updated her hair, her wardrobe and she is stepping out every moment she can to gain more visibility. She gives herself away.
