Matt Drudge Rips Boehner and GOP ‘Deception,’ ’Disrespect for Voters’ on Twitter

Matt Drudge went on a rare Twitter tirade last night against Republicans for, as he put it, capitulating to President Obama on trade.

The rare tweets from Drudge drew, of course, some agreement:

@DRUDGE – Twisted D.C. Never looked at it that way! We overwhelming elect Repubs to stop Obama but they don't stop him…they do nothing!

@DRUDGE Remember when Pelosi said we had to pass Obamacare to know what's in it? How did that work out?! They should let voters see TTP now.

@DRUDGE My mother taught me to read at age 3, and not to ever sign documents I had not read. Why doesn't Congress have that common sense?

@DRUDGE what's the point in voting anymore. We gave them control and look what they've done
