... and now the idiots are shocked that the even bigger idiots are behaving, well,
idiotically:
GOP-aligned business groups such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the National Federation of Independent Business, and others played a key role in helping elect dozens of conservatives to the House and Senate. Now that these conservatives are trying to drag Congress into multiple confrontations that could do untold economic damage, however, the groups that played such a big role in shaping this Congress are none too happy with the forces they helped unleash.
Although
these groups are actually
going on the record to lament the actions of the Republicans they helped elect, instead of being apologetic for having thrown their support behind a bunch of scary and destructive clowns, they are whining about not getting what they paid for. The thing is, they are getting exactly what they paid for—they've got nobody to blame but themselves. It's their own damn fault. It just sucks that the rest of us are paying the price.
