GOP's Reality Blackout

How out of touch do you have to be? The GOP suggest a reality blackout.
1. Phil Gramm says we're a nation of whiners.
2. John McCain says on the campaign trail last fall that the fundamentals of the economy are sound.
3. House Republicans torpedo the bailout as everyone else sits in fear that the market is in a tailspin.
4. Nearly every single Republican votes against the stimulus package.
5. Numerous Republican governors reject their own state's stimulus money, threatening their own local recovery and the national recovery.
6. Eric Cantor says Democrats are "overreacting" to the economic situation.
7. Michael Steele says he still sees lots of people shopping at the malls.
8. Conservatives, led by Gingrich and Armey, hold nationwide Teabagging protests today in opposition to the stimulus package that was necessary to stop us from going into a depression
The only cohesive message they have is that they don't want to do anything. These top GOP leaders are saying from their plush offices, "you're on your own".
