      Pretty much

      It is the main reason why the Obama strategy of, “When they go low we go high.” Is a complete failure, you simply cannot shame a republican into following decorum, because they, just like the American people, do not give a shit about decorum, because they’re too concerned with results.

      The Republican Strategy is actually admirable simply because they said “You go high, we’ll stay low, and our constituents will thank us for it.”

      It’s just a shame that this results driven motivation, this understanding that means are entirely irrelevant as long as you get the ends you’re after, could do much good for america. Instead it’s being used to make sure that a law that says we will stone a woman in the town square for having a miscarriage it’s simply more realistic to imagine passing in this day and age, rather than ensuring that Americans have access to housing and Medicine.
