Soooo, how have they done 5 years later?
Much is hyperbole an 8th grader could spot as fill words on an essay he despised writing.
Yeah. lots of promise, none kept.

We pledge to honor the Constitution as constructed by its framers and honor the original intent of those precepts that have been consistently ignored – particularly the Tenth Amendment, which grants that all powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

We pledge to advance policies that promote greater liberty, wider opportunity, a robust defense, and national economic prosperity. We pledge to honor families, traditional marriage, life, and the private and faith-based organizations that form the core of our American values.

We pledge to make government more transparent in its actions, careful in its stewardship, and honest in its dealings.

We pledge to uphold the purpose and promise of a better America, knowing that to whom much is given, much is expected and that the blessings of our liberty buoy the hopes of mankind.
We make this pledge bearing true faith and allegiance to the people we represent, and we invite fellow citizens and patriots to join us in forming a new governing agenda for America.

So no one remembers this BS, back when TEA was hammering the rino?
So Boner decided a 'Pledge to America' was a way to usurp the TEA for their own evil purposes, except that the base wanted no part of it.

Anyway, found a couple of toons that kind of paint the true picture of how the base thought of the GOP at the time.
Hell, still do...

This last batch of schmucks we sent to Washington to take over the senate haven't been setting any records either, and a few of them were backed by TEA

 

It's enough to make you want to chew nails and spit staples. Luckily I have been able to restrain myself from shooting my TV when the campaign commercials came on! It matter not what party they are, they are politicians and lying is their forte. I dumped the GOP years ago and I still get mailings begging for money. If I could fit a turd into the envelope, I'd mail it back. But then I'd end up in prison! IMHO they are all corrupt liars, regardless of party. At least the `RATS don't BS about who or what they are, while the `PUBS lie through their teeh and from both sides of their pie holes.
