Elections Have Consequences – 29 Senators Who Voted For Obamacare Are Now Goners

With the exception of ISIS or the Iranian Ayatollahs, there isn’t a more deserving bunch on the planet of their just deserts than the Democrat socialists. Obama said if we didn’t like his socialism, go out and win an election. The Republicans listened.

Now the tally is in on those Democrats who were conspirators in the mafia-style forced passage of obamacare, with twenty-nine of the perpetrators no longer in the Senate. Some, like John Kerry, moved on to other, better insulated positions, but there are only so many such hiding places, and not nearly enough for them all to escape the wrath of free citizens who are treated as slaves.

For some the writing was on the wall, and rather than face overwhelming odds associated with their betrayal of their oath and the American people, they chose to avoid trying to defend their actions and simply decided to not run for another term. Some were replaced by Democrats, but more were replaced by their opposition.

Retirement could have been in the plans of some of these self-serving public servants, but regardless, a 48 percent turnover is indicative of what happens when you disrespect the wishes of the American people and treat them as if they are subjects rather than your employers.

As evidence of who works for whom, there will be a lot of Democrats cleaning out their desks prior to heading home for the holidays.
