I understand the “need” for it, but it’s ultimately worthless to everyday Americans.

Politicians politicking is all this is. Political grandstanding.

Exactly right. The WSJ editorial board describes it as an act of “ritual purification” - - https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-gop-cen..._lead_pos2

That is, understandably, a necessary part of any real religion; in this instance the Fellowship of True Conservatism (my descriptor, not the WSJ). But it is not particularly helpful for a non-secular political effort to take back control of our nation from leftist grifters.

Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger are toast. Deservedly so. They should be scorned in the opinion pages, on political forums and in public conversation. And they should be removed from Congress in the normal way - - by the voters of their districts.

What should not happen is for them to be made into martyrs that force the majority of Americans, those who want what is best for our nation, to first swear fealty to the Fellowship of True Conservatism. That is self-destructively stupid.

This is not about conservatism. Its about undermining the party by serving on a Democratic committee while being appointed by the Democrat. None of the other 8 who voted for the bogus impeachment charges got censured.

It’s also about the GOP being too spineless to take this action immediately. Instead, they chose to wait until it was clear they were lame ducks.

I would have far more respect for the GOP if they didn’t wait.

Its a big deal in that its allowing the rino's to come out and voice their displeasure in it. If you want to know who is a rino/establishment elitist, just check out their twitter feeds on who was against the censure.

AR governor Asa Hutchison is one, and not a surprise. When I moved to Arkansas a year ago, I said I would actively support campaigning against him if he werent term-limited.

Chaney’s father and Rumsfeld should have been censured. The ultimate RINOs, and their fixation with fighting no-win wars in the Mideast made Barack Obama president and took our eye off the China ball.
