What Surprises Me Most About Repug Politicians - State & Fed - Congressmen, Senators & Governors...

is that they don't show any embarrassment or have any shame for the outlandish things they say or do.

I don't know how they can face their families let alone their constituents.

I really think this clown car of Repug candidates they have is doing irreparable damage to their brand. I don't know how they feel they should be respected or even think that they are qualified to lead this country.

A "Fox-head" inlaw. I added that until PBOs 1st term, when the right went apeshit crazy, those Repug Politicians at least pretended concern for the average citizen, though that pretense rarely led to any substantial actions. There's no longer even any pretense.

I also told this inlaw, who considers herself a pious and pure Christian, that should she stop watching Faux, and do a little research, she'd realize these thugs are the very "money changers" her precious Christ threw out of the Temple. That people like her are those money changers minions.

The look on her face as I said those things, and her unexpected silence suggests I might have gotten through to her a little.. We will see.

They feel no shame because the people surrounding them approve if not endorse such behavior.
