Path to Capitulation

Just as the United States has a marked lack of will in dealing with foreign adversaries, the Republican Party lacks the backbone to confront Obama. I have just absorbed the transcript of Rush Limbaugh's conversation with GOP Speaker of the US House of Representatives John Boehner, and I am sadly convinced that he intends to fold, and the Republican Party will once again snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by giving in to Barack Hussein Obama on the debt ceiling. Agreeing now to go along to get along does not just hurt the GOP and push many Americans that much closer to forming a down-the-line conservative third party but harms the nation. This Republican retreat shows that that political party is willing to accede to what Arizona GOP US Senator and former Presidential candidate John McCain aptly termed "generational theft". If the Republicans give in now, they must earn just recompense at the voting booth.
