Palin and DeMitt are absolutely correct to criticize “Republican” leaders of the U.S. House of Representatives – who are currently purging fiscal conservatives from positions of influence within the party.
“We send good conservatives to DC. to fulfill the promises they made to the electorate, and yet when they stay true to their word the permanent political class in their own party punishes them,” Palin told Breitbart. ”This won’t be forgotten come 2014.

Michigan's Congressman Justin Amash and several other constitutional conservative Republican's were removed from key committees for not supporting House Leadership with the increase in the debt ceiling.
Good for Palin and DeMitt for speaking up! The GOP leadership deserves to be bashed for attacking its few fiscal conservative members – although Palin and DeMitt got this right, and in the process stumbled upon a larger theme: The tone deafness of the national GOP as it relates to its ongoing electability problem. At a time when “Republicans” need to be elevating the influence and stature of the few GOP elected officials who actually practice what the party preaches, U.S. Speaker John Boehner and “Majority” Leader Eric Cantor are instead doing everything they can to drown out these voices.
Why? Because the new “Republican” party wants to tax and spend almost as much as Barack Obama and the Democrats …
