But over the past few months, they've shown that they are a bloodthirsty lot, so long as they can keep their own hands clean.

I'll add some...

Republicans defund public education and then complain that public education isn't working.

Republicans create a student loan banking system that creates billions in profits and puts our youth in a position of deep, deep debt right out of school.

Republicans cut funding to government agencies and then complain about their ineffectiveness.

Sadly, there are no limits to republican hypocrisy and double-speak.

Is claiming to be "pro-life" and then voting down any legislation that promotes health care, education, and proper nutrition.

The only life they are "pro" is the unborn. Once a child is born, it's on it's own.
