Republican Stupidity of the Day

I think serious people can debate whether it's a good idea to let tax cuts expire, even for the very rich, in the middle of a lousy economy. But Republicans are so desperate to reward rich people for their financial support that they are willing to hold the START treaty hostage until the wealthiest Americans get their tax cuts. Some are even talking about voting against the treaty regardless, presumably because it was negotiated by President Obama, so ratifying it would give him a victory. Never mind that the process was initiated by Ronald Reagan and continued with broad support from both parties ever since, until now.

I understand wanting to extend tax cuts at the rich, but at the risk of jeopardizing our nuclear security? These people have lost all sense of responsibility to their country.
