I was in Austin when his court case was underway and his attorney claimed it’s an “act.” I call bullshit.

Trump needs a food taster…

Trump tried using Christie as a food taster, but ended up losing 80 pounds.

DeMint has always been DeLusional, but then again so has the entire Heritage Foundation.

I’m sure the KochBoys ‘repealed’ DeMint and have groomed a toady to 'replace ’ him…

The Scotts, Rick/Walker/Brown? Who knows ?

Sort of.

DeMint tried to turn Heritage into a TeaParty activist group, and blew through a ton of money supporting numerous tea party candidates that ultimately failed. Along the way, the Heritage Foundation started getting blacklisted by regular GOPers…even being banned from House caucus meetings. He has done tremendous damage to them as a right wing think tank.

Quite honestly, I am bit surprised he lasted this long. I figured that would have canned him in 2015 after his disastrous results in 2014. (The GOP did well in 2014, the races that DeMint backed did not). But I guess even Heritage said enough is enough.

So, even Jim DeMint for chrissakes isn’t crazy enough for them?

Holy Shiite!

When may we stop calling all these Christianist Teavangelicals “conservatives?”

Well THIS is kind of ironic considering the flipping and flopping the KOCH Bros. were doing during the election. ‘Not sufficiently conservative enough’… Amazing. Where’s Buckley when you need him? At least he had the balls to kick out the crazies.

How’s that workin’ for ya?

I will gladly contribute Scott Walker to the cause. May be the only way to get him out of Madison.

This article goes into the conservative origins of the Affordable Care Act. That the Heritage Foundation quibbles about it now and wants a repeal is going against their values they themselves expressed years ago. The real reason they’re against this version of health care is it was championed by a democrat President. Not to mention a black democrat President at that. Irony is foreign to the GOP.
