I simply cannot believe that the Republicans all across this country support their Party Leaders in Washington? I cannot believe that they want them to block everything and not work to fix any problems. I cannot believe it is because the problem is "big government".
I cannot believe the people are as cold-hearted as their leaders. That they would have no problem cutting $36 dollars in food stamp allotment from the most needy.
I simply cannot believe that there are that many heartless assholes in this country. Do they really support these types of policies?

So, they deliver what their base demands.
