    Glad you asked. They are suppose to be unveiling it this week. That is if any news outlets will cover it. I know they have been trying for a long time to get the message out but the party in control of the House, Senate and White House are pretty well able to shut them out.

    The GOP does not look united suitable now. they actually don't have somebody who has sufficient power and popularity to take administration and communicate for the occasion. interior the absence of management, each and each Republican is purely following the comparable script as in the past. They criticize the president (which we did, too, while it became into their guy), yet then additionally they have Sarah Palin going around getting headlines speaking approximately abortion. and that they protest weakly as further and further states legalize gay marriage. Political analysts have often agreed that the Republicans ought to shift concentration removed from the evangelicals, and reclaim the moderates, by using loosening up on social conservatism. as long because of the fact the Republican occasion remains professional-existence, the evangelicals will vote for them. they don't ought to cater to them in particular, by using speaking approximately prayer in faculties and how marriage is sacred. by using doing this, they alienate the moderates (who would often times vote Democrat first of all), to thrill the folk who have been continuously going to vote for them interior the 1st place. the undertaking is lots of the Republicans in Congress are evangelicals themselves. They, of direction, won't exchange what they suspect, however the information clips of them are not what the Republican occasion needs. they don't have a reliable average chief who has the popularity to alter the occasion platform, and the ability to make the others beside the point. (that's incredibly a shame John McCain ran as president, because of the fact if he hadn't, he would have been spectacular at this.) suitable now, the main seen and effectual Republican isn't the Senate Minority chief, the living house Minority chief, or the Chairman of the GOP. that's Rush Limbaugh. And Limbaugh knows plenty approximately government, yet little approximately politics. he's intense interior the occasion. His listeners are people who believe him first of all--he isn't attracted to having Democrats hear to his practice. Limbaugh actively alienates moderates, incredibly than attracting them. He would incredibly the Republicans stay genuine to their modern-day platform than win.

    They all take credit for the good stuff, and blame the other party whenever something doesn't go so well. With the level of corruption in D.C. lets just hope that one party doesn't get the control of all three lawmaking branches again. None of them care about people, they just want more power. What a shame that we can't get honest people into politics. I've met many politicians on the local level over the years, they just get slimier as they rise through the system. By the time they get to D.C. they barely even resemble a human.

    GOP not complaining about anything. They are sitting by. The ones complaining are the american people. Big difference. No blame can be assigned to the GOP. Democrats are the ones who need to settle this out. Just a couple days ago, the GOP didn't have any say on anything. In fact, if they had gone all to hawaii, it would have probably led to the same outcome. So there is really no where to run friend, I am sorry. Your just going to have to take the heat.

    You're not listening. Less, not more taxation for useless federal programs that only serve to build a larger, more intrusive and inefficient government than we already have. Look at the tremendous waste of stimulus money and the zero effect it has had in creating jobs. Consider the national debt and how it will bankrupt this country. Obama is too eager to implement programs that will weaken this nation and enable him to build his government into every aspect of our lives. The man is an insidious ideologue that has no use for a free and independent America.

    Why don't people GO READ the gop.gov website FIRST, before complaing that they have "Party of NO" ideas?!

    Republicans have been TRYING to give advice and ideas for the global issues, the economy, and health care since May '08. They seem to care about cap & trade more to SAVE jobs from those whacko global warming/green jobs mumbo jumbo, too. But the Fawning/TIngling Media Machine which IS the mainstream media, refuses to cover them. Not even paying attention to them on C-SPAN or other outlets. SO people THINK the Republicans arent doing anything.

    Source(s): gop.gov, and ANY republicans' website

    -because that is too risky. If they had any good ideas and had the courage to present them, they might lose votes; and popularity and saving their seats is just more important. It's easier to just complain

    Yeah, let the thumbs down roll.

    When they make Limbaugh and Palin their Front Runners, does that not tell you something?

    But as long as we foot their bills = Paycheck, Health Care, Pension, Perks for doing absolutely nothing, why should they lift a finger?

    They have, but liberals don't have ears or a brain between them.

    Obama said he will welcome ideas from the Republicans as long as they agree completely with his ideas. Progressives are amusing.

  • Turn to the left = less jobs

    Turn to the right = more jobs
