Groveling Isn't Governing

Submitted by ub on

Why has the Grand Old Party delved into a new low for The GOP - Groveling On Politics? Are desperate Republicans reaching inside a bag of tricks to search for anything that will save their party? Is it normal to lie or move abjectly on the ground with one's face downward?
