Does the GOP care about anything?

Watching Billy Long on the news pumping gas Thursday brings up some questions about what the GOP really cares about. Considering that several Republican politicians were doing the same thing at the same time; the answer seems to be politics. Why didn't the GOP organize to defund Planned Parenthood a few years ago when it was a Republican Senate, Republican House, and Republican President? Why didn't they open drilling then? Why didn't they repeal regulations of firearms? If you want to know what the GOP cares about look at what they accomplished when they had absolute control of the government.
In the video Billy Long pumps gas for a teacher. Did he tell her how his "plans" to close the Department of Education;might affect her commute? Probably not because when he makes promises I see no evidence that he is looking at the big picture. I wonderwho theRepublicans will have running next time around, since the seemingly disingenuous Mr. Long has promised to only run one term...
