It takes more than grease to keep the wheels turning
The old saying "the squeaky wheel gets the grease" has been proved quite true for Republicans. They have spent the last decade squeaking as loud as possible and they certainly have gotten the grease but it takes more than grease to keep the wheels on the wagon. Now they are all greased up (think Abromoff) and still squeaking but the wheels are coming off. It actually takes some basic hardware such as hub nuts (think social safety net) to hold the wheels on and yet the GOP only wants grease. If we don't treat all wheels equally and do proper "preventative maintenance" (Health care for all) the wagon (USA) will be without any wheels and left behind to be plundered by the "Indians".
