Link republicans are not confused, or bumbling, or contientious objectors. they are evil, self-serving, non-patriotic minions of the rich and their cohorts. republicans do not care about the vast majority of americans except to dupe them into believing they care so they can cut their own taxes. don't think so? then how come they don't care if we borrow money from china to build bombs to fight an unjust war and cut taxes at the same time to baloon the deficeit, BUT, if our govt. wants to spend money on health insurance and infrastructure they go crazy? never vote republican.
