My first thought was "hoist on their own petard"! They deserve to have their own amendments voted down if they not even show up to support them.

Just wait until the mid-term elections. When they try to play the National Security card, their Democratic opponents should shove it back into their faces with this truth! -

A prime example as to why we need to abolish political parties in this country and make every candidate run on his/her own merits. People who pull the straight ticket lever are ignorant of the fact that no party has the best candidate for every position!

I know from reading facts on how dumb quite a few Americans are

but the actual reality is that most of the dumbo's permeate the
democratic party. They come from the big cities on the east and west coast and places like Chicago and Detroit.
The average IQ is far below the average, they have been pushed through the failed public school system in the urban areas, and
more than half of them can't read or write properly.
One can simply read some of the post that are continually posted on this particulaar site. There are more uninformed people per square inch of print on here than ever imagined.
Most of the deadhead democrat followers that know nothing about
what is being done to this country, they just blindly follow what their political favorites lie to them about, and the ironic part is they believe the lies and defend the undefenceable that the political hacks throw at them. The pitiful party of cretins attract the freeloaders, druggies and
the rest fo the dregs of society like a moth to a flame.
I still love my country but this conglamorate of followers are
willing participents in the destruction of their own liberties
but are too dumb to realize it.
