Congre$$ Takes Off Its Coats

They are ready for a fight!

"Republican Sen. Coats won’t run again" Associated Press  March 25, 2015

WASHINGTON — Republican Senator Dan Coats of Indiana announced his retirement Tuesday, opening up a Senate seat in a GOP-friendly state that could attract a roster of hopefuls from both parties.

‘‘This was not an easy decision,’’ Coats, 71, said in a statement announcing he would step down at the end of his term rather than seek reelection in 2016.

Coats is serving his second full term in the Senate. He was first appointed to the Senate in 1988, replacing Dan Quayle. He was elected to his first full term in 1992 but retired in 1998, honoring a term-limits pledge and going on to serve as ambassador to Germany under George W. Bush. He was elected to his second full term in 2010.

Coats is a solid conservative who focused on budgetary and fiscal issues. But he’s occasionally broken with fellow party members, recently becoming one of a handful of Republicans who would not sign on to an open letter to the leaders of Iran aimed at undercutting Obama administration attempts to reach a nuclear deal. 

Now you know why he's leaving. He stood up to the Zionist Lobby.

Truth is they just put on their coats for "spring" break.
