THE SUICIDE BRIGADE: THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

The 26th District of New York election of a Democrat member of congress stunned the Newt's literati into back tracking their plan to  bludgeon to death the health care reform of the Obama Administration.. The Republicans spared no ammunition , fired and  reloaded at will attacking the health reform and grounded it to allow the  private insurance systems [the Patrone or the Godfather contributors to the Republican campaign treasury] to remain as the third party payer instead of having a single party payer which would have save trillion of dollars from duplication of the bureaucracy--
[ this financing method is so reminiscent of the fight for the crown by king John and Empress Mathilda in the 12 th century England--nothing has changed- except that this time one claimant to the throne is black].The Supreme court decision that private contributions to political parties are held in secret did not help, but exacerbated the injustice of the inequitably distributed health care planned by Republicans.[ Members of congress get excellent health care, freely funded by tax payer's money].
  The Democrats wanted a single payer arrangement but sans success. However, making the best of the situation Obama and his cohort adroitly staged the contention on the field of non partisanship which eluded the dim witted Republicans in the political chess game. They wanted everything and gave nothing. Now that their policy of insane cutbacks to save the goose of the very rich 2% of Americans at the expense of the working poor, children, the elderly and the vanishing middle class, the main stream are beginning to see the war plans of the Republicans against the vast majority of Americans. The Republicans are bending over backwards to cover their onerous designs  against those who cannot afford the prohibitive cost of private health care by their one shot voucher. Imagine  elderly people negotiating coverage with well endowed insurance agencies, good luck.
Now every Republican hopeful to regain their recalled governor's seat and those looking to 2012 should be on suicide watch. To fall promptly on one's sword might save you from the verdict of history, but i could never for the life of me imagine why the Republicans could not divine the response of the American people to Paul Ryan's budget.
Now that 40 Republican senators signed on to the Ryan's budget, some say they don't know what to do, others say 'do something bold" and others ''jumping off the bridge is bold". Harakiri and sepuko are military terms unknown in the Republican lexicon while they are on  record for their  fondness of martial words when attacking their quarry [lock and load, reload, crosshairs] it will be intriguing to look forward to the next move by the lemmings, one Pied Piper wanted.
