1. Why would they do that?
They are cheering so loud on the inside that you can almost hear it.

7. Republicans don't care about the past
The war in Afghanistan shows that very clearly.

6. Boehner didn't shed a single crocodile's tear over it.
Remember that this is the organization that screwed with the Democratic nominees, knocking out Kucinich, then Edwards, leaving us with two candidates they felt it would be very unlikely anyone would actually vote for: a woman and a black man. They worked harder and left us with the black man, whom they obviously thought could not possibly get elected.

Bwahahaha. Obama is the smartest guy in the room and they're out of weapons.

8. Those three are out of the picture now. It's Trump, Bachman, Palin, Gingrich, Huckabee, and the
rest of the wackos.

10. What could they say without drawing attention to their own hypocrisy?
They are softer, but white supremacists nonetheless. Having never done anything but screw minorities what can they say about Trump? That's great, because I am sure they are embarrassed by it. And they can't say anything.

It's not the ashamed type of embarrassment, it's the shown-up horse's ass type of embarrassment.

11. That's like asking if anyone from the royal family has condemned
the institution of the monarchy. No, and they're not going to.
