The republicans are the opposite of smart

[Renew Deal]

The #1 thread on the Greatest Page right now is how the republicans feel burned by Franken because they voted against the rape amendment. These people seriously lack brains. They voted against a bill to protect RAPE VICTIMS. It's not fucking rocket science to think that people might notice. It might be a shit bill in their opinion, but it doesn't matter. You don't vote against RAPE VICTIMS.

2. If the Repos were smart, they would pass single payer and win for the next 2 generations.But they

aren't that smart.

3. they're mad because Al used a common GOP tactic

Create a bill that generates a false debate then cream anyone dumb enough to oppose it. Republicans did this all the time. I just wish Al had saved it for the 2010 elections, but I guess it's never to soon to oppose rape. Seriously whenever Republicans cry follow it's probably because it's exactly something they would have done.

4. And have done. The elected Dems let them get away with that.

5. That's 100% correct.

And this bill wasn't some nefarious plot to embarrass republicans. They put themselves in this position. They mostly voted against it because they are bought and paid for by the MIC.
