How fucked is the Republican Party?
Well, for one thing, they don't represent US citizens. They get their marching orders from non-patriotic, multi-national corporations (who have never pledged an allegeince to the United States) and not the American citizens who voted them in office. The proof can be found in their voting records.

And nothing shows just how deceitful this party is, more than the things they say about gas prices and the things they do to keep them that way....If you're an American woman (they stay away from you, who...)
[they voted] against health insurance covering reproductive health care, Planned Parenthoods other services, or privacy for the medical records of victims of rape and incest.If you're an American without health insurance...
[they voted] en-mass voted to repeal protections to stop health insurance companies from discriminating on the basis of gender.
[they voted] to repeal the Affordable Care Act 33 times. [Not because they want full Medicare for all, it is because they want to voucherize Medicare and hand patients over to the avaricious Aetnas and the Pfizers who return the favor with campaign cash.]If you're a big oil company like BP, (they don't care about seeing your birth certificate)...
[they voted to]retain big subsidies, tax breaks, weaken pollution restrictions, lease everywhere, and even give relief to oil companies when they damaged the Gulf Coast.Even if you're a House Republican family member with lung problems...
[they voted] weaken the Clean Air Act, drinking water safety standards, cut funding for these cancer preventing, health protecting programs while pushing for more military weapons and bloated Pentagon budgets. The Republicans went so far as to vote for polluters over children, pregnant women and people who live in nursing homes and assisted-living facilities. These Republicans voted to block the EPA mercury and air toxics standards that the agency estimated would save 12,000 lives every year and prevent more than one million asthma attacks.
How many more examples and tragedy's must American's endure, before we realize this party needs to be completely purged from American politics?While Republicans campaign against Obama for not doing anything to lower gasoline prices...
[they voted] against measures to regulate oil and gas speculators who drive up gas prices, a fact recognized by the CEO of Exxon a few years ago in a Senate hearing.
