Are some Republicans just getting plain tired of the lies?

After having been lead down the garden path of "small government" and "fiscal conservatism" by the ideologues, are some Republicans just getting weary of the lies and deception? It's hard to keep up that facade when you know that 3/4 of the words out of your mouth are being dictated by the political requirements of the moment. . .

Another Republican from upstate NY, (Richard Hanna), has admitted the charade.

Who's next?
