I'm not saying it was the fault of liberals. I'm saying it's the fault of Republicans who are shocked, *shocked,* that their elected officials are doing exactly what they promised to do when they were campaigning.

Those Republicans (had they voted their own beliefs), in conjunction with liberals, would easily defeat any of the political candidates who ran on such campaign promises.

But that'd require people to vote based on campaign promises, not gang colors.

They aren't shocked. They just use the "well I don't support THAT!" as a shield against supporting knowingly asshole policies like this when they continue to vote for knowingly asshole republican politicians.
