House Broken Senator

This is what Obama has to deal with, ladies and gentlemen.  House Tea Party Republicans like Utah Sen. Mike Lee.

MATTHEWS: Okay, in ten days you want to change the United States Constitution by two-thirds vote in both houses? That’s what you’re demanding.

LEE: Yes. If possible we can’t change the Constitution just in Congress but we can submit it to the states. Let the states fight it out.

MATTHEWS: And you think you’re being reasonable by saying you want a two-thirds vote in the House, which is Republican, and in the Senate which is Democrat. You want the Democratic Senate, by a two-thirds vote, to pass a constitutional amendment or you want the house to come down?

LEE: Yes. That’s exactly what I’m saying and I’ve been saying this for six months.

Yes, Sen. Lee is saying that unless the Senate and President agree to GOP demands, America's "house will come down" and he's fine with this.   He's fine with hundreds of thousands of jobs being lost and our economy going back into recession if not depression because it means he can "win".  He doesn't give a damn about anything except his fanatical ideology.

But these are the leaders we have elected.  I fear for the country at this point.
