Republican Gratuitiveness to the Progressives, A Lump of Coal to Their Voter Base

I received this email greeting from the Speaker of the House, who seems to be oblivious to the fact that the only ones celebrating the detestable Omnibus spending bill this season are the Democrat Party and their supporters. Speaker Ryan bestowed on the Progressive Movement and the Democrat Party a very generous thoroughly undeserved Christmas gift. Below is an email I received this morning and the response I relayed back to the Speaker.

December 24, 2015  |  

On behalf of the whole House, I want to extend my warmest wishes to everyone celebrating Christmas this year. We spend a lot of time this season asking for what we want. But perhaps it would be better to ask for what we need. We have been given so much in this country that it almost seems ungrateful to ask for more. But all of us—at all times—need more of what is good. And this year, I hope that all of us continue to live in what I consider the spirit of Christmas: a courageous humility.

It took courage for God to humble Himself. He came down from heaven and became a man—a child in a manger. He did this while knowing that one day He would have to lay down His life for us. He would have to give up His only Son. At first, this might seem like a sad story. But we are to “rejoice in the Lord always.” Christmas is a day of celebration. And it is only through grace and prayer that we come to realize: what a gift He’s given us—what a profound act of love.

And so we rejoice. This year, may we continue the spirit of Christmas by facing our flaws fearlessly and by giving back boldly. May we recognize that our way is not the only way—it is not even the right way. It is God’s way we seek. May we cherish all the gifts we have been given—especially the men and women of our armed forces, the people who keep us safe. And may we remember that it takes courage to put others first. It is courageous to do the right thing. May we remember, and be brave—and be glad.

Here is my humble reply to Speaker Ryan's Christmas greeting.

Merry Christmas Speaker Ryan.

This year has been a great disappointment. The Republican Party has veered far from Conservative and Party Platform principles. The GOP in Congress has completely failed to stand up to the Democrats' and the President poisonous progressive agenda, and for conservativism.  

Why is the abortion giant and aborted baby-parts peddler Planned Parenthood completely funded for the new year? Why is ObamaCare completely funded? Why have you allowed the President's Amnesty executive orders to move forward with full funding? Why have you allowed the Syrian refugee resettlement program to be completely funded?  

This Christmas the Democrats and Progressives are rejoicing over their great victory over the feckless cowardly Republicans. You and you colleagues have only preserved, moved forward and even strengthened the Democrat agenda. I'm ashamed of the Republican Party.

Sincerely,

-Greg

Outmanned Democrats Celebrate A Major Victory Over Spineless Republicans

As if I was not aggravated enough at "my" GOP, I get this most unwelcome solicitation from the Party of Outright Surrender:

FINANCE UPDATE 

Greg-

With only 10 days left in 2015, we are critically short of our fundraising goal [SURPRISE, SURPRISE - I WONDER WHY THE GOP IS NOT BEING SUPPORTED!]. This may not seem like a big deal, but if we do not raise enough funds, the Senate Democrats will be able to bury our candidates in negative and misleading attack ads [ACTUALLY, THE REPUBLICAN ARE DOING A GOOD JOB BURYING THEMSELVES, DON'T YOU THINK?].

Will you step up to support our conservative Republican majority? [WHY WOULD I ,OR ANYONE FOR THAT MATTER, SUPPORT YOU GUYS NOW AFTER THE BEATING YOU TOOK IN COMPLETELY SURRENDERING TO THE DEMOCRATS IN HELPING THEM TO INSURE PASSAGE OF THE OMNIBUS SPENDING BILL? THE REPUBLICANS WERE GIVEN A MANDATE TO RESIST THE OBAMA/DEMOCRAT AGENDA - YOU NOT ONLY DID NOT DO THAT, BUT YOU ENABLED IT!] Please make a secure contribution today.

Our Senate majority has gotten a lot accomplished this year [THIS IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD, WHO TO 'YA THINK YOUR FOOLIN'?]. From bolstering funding for our veterans to repealing Obamacare [WHAT?], the Republican Senate has been promoting the conservative reforms they promised last year [THAT IS AN OUTRIGHT LIE!. This is all in jeopardy [WHAT A JOKE!].

Will you support our conservative majority [WHERE ARE THESE SO-CALLED CONSERVATIVES? IF THEY DO EXIST THEY HAVE BEEN MISSING IN ACTION ALL YEAR!]? 

If you make a contribution before the end of the year, your contribution will be triple-matched [PLEASE DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH, GUYS].

Thanks,

Senate Republicans [RINOs - REPUBLICANS IN NAME ONLY]

Speaker Paul Ryan & GOP Don't Get the Point, Do They?

Surrender on Omnibus Bill Give Democrats Major Victory

Read: Omnibus Spells Death of the GOP

I responded to the email I received from the Republican Party with the following:

What has the GOP accomplished for the American taxpayer? Nothing.

*  Planned Parenthood is still receiving 100% Funding

*  Obama's Executive Amnesty Stands

*  Obama's Syrian Refugee Resettlement Fully Funded

*  ObamaCare continues to be Fully Funded

With helping the passage of the Omnibus spending bill Republicans in both house of Congress accomplished a whole lot for the Democrats. Sen. Chuck Schumer said that the GOP, by agreeing with the Omnibus spending, without a real fight, has helped to advance the Democrat agenda, principles and program beyond his and the Democrat's wildest expectations!

I am very disgusted and angry with the Republican Party since you have controlled the House and Senate. You've essentially wasted the last 6 years.

Thank you Speaker Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell!

Omnibus Spending Bill, Winners & Losers

Pelosi and Democrats Gleeful After Soundly Defeating Republicans

Omnibus Spending Bill Winners:

*  The Democrat Party led by President Barrack Obama,

*  House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi,

*  Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid,

*  The Planned Parenthood Federation of America

*  Muslim Syrian Refugees

*  Islamic Terrorists

Omnibus Spending Losers:

*  America

*  The Republican voter base

*  Taxpayers

*  Tea Party members

*  Conservatives

*  Pro-Life supporters

Including the Republican Party
Voter Base

While the Democrats celebrate the monstrous Omnibus, which funds nearly all of their perverse progressive agenda, Rush Limbaugh suggests the GOP only makes only excuses for its inaction, and intentionally has disenfranchised its voting base, with the intent on broadening its appeal to non-conservative voters.

Basically the passage of the Omnibus Spending Bill today, December 18, 2015, was the willful not-so-sweet-surrender by establishment-led Republicans of both Houses of Congress to the Democrat Party Progressive Agenda. There was not an iota of real resistance. The GOP intentionally gave up their constitutional-given Power of the Purse in return apparently for keeping the bloated government from shutting down and preserving the status quo.

My Congressman, Pat Tiberi (RINO - OH 12) voted for Planned Parenthood funding, Muslim Syrian Refugee Resettlement Program of Obama, ObamaCare, and Obama's Executive Amnesty. Senator Rob Portman (RINO - OH) voted against the spending bill.

The Neutering of the Republican Party in Congress

Why in the world would the GOP so completely relinquish their power of the "purse to the purse" to the President and to Ms. Pelosi and Senator Reid in the Congress without any fight for basic party principles in the deliberation over the massive year-end appropriations spending bill introduced this week?

I am very disappointed, frustrated and discouraged with the current state of the Republican Party. Why did we work to help the GOP gain the Senate and increase House membership? We are about to witness today, December 18, 2015, the complete and utter cave-in of the GOP to the Democrat Party perverse progressive agenda of Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. There has been no apparent change in the actions of Paul Ryan who appears to be a regurgitation of John Boehner, Boehner 2.0. All talk and no action. The Party surrenders it principles for what reason I do not know. Is it with the avoiding confrontation with the hope of maintaining power and/or the status quo? 

Here is the email I just sent to my two RINO reps in Congress. I don't expect that they will do anything, however.

To:  Senator Rob Portman (R-OH)
        Congressman Pat Tiberi (R-OH 12)

Re:  Omnibus Appropriations Bill

Please do not vote for the Omnibus Bill today. It funds every major point of the Obama/Democrat Progressive Agenda including:

* ObamaCare
* Syrian Refugee Resettlement Program
* Planned Parenthood
* Obama's Executive Amnesty

Why in the world would the GOP so completely relinquish their power of the purse to the President and to Ms. Pelosi and Senator Reid without any fight for basic party principles?

I am very disappointed, frustrated and discouraged with the current state of the Republican Party. Why did we work to help the GOP gain the Senate and increase House membership?
