This is not a partisan statement, though it reflects a party's choice tonight to thoroughly betray the trust placed in them. There is no reason other than hiding bad law to do this. NONE. I am embarrassed of the @GOP. No win was worth this.

If you are giddy with your win, take pause, not because I am some hysterical snowflake - I'm not. Even if you wanted every word of this bill as scribbled in the margins, it comes at a price far higher than the economic costs.

If you are GOP and find yourself uncomfortable with this process, please get involved. You need not change your entire political beliefs, go to what feels like the dark side of another political party, or accept this as the way it just is now.

Vote. If you are a conservative, vote conservative, but vote a conservative with ethics - not just because they aren't a liberal. This is our A team. These are our laws. There are few things more important than how our laws are written.

Look beyond mailers, ads. Look for people running for office that you can tell actually want the job, not the lifestyle, power, or just the vote part of the job. Send boring, responsible, compassionate people who do not outsource or skip reading.

And to everyone in the US, rip anyone who voted for this process last night from office. Every single one. We have exactly the government we deserve. Let's stop slumming and do better. Let's make politics the way they should be.
