    you are part of the problem, sniping from the sidelines with unsubstantiated bullsh*t like this then whining when you get b*tch slapped back.
    Such vitriol. And such a perfect example of the hypocrisy. Lowest common denominator vocabulary. I can see you foaming at the mouth.

    Hello again,

    I changed my mind.. I USED to think the Tea Party destroyed itself during this last fiasco.. Now, I think the GOP (ordinary Republicans) destroyed ITSELF. The Tea Party is the new norm on the right.

    Republicans needed votes so the had to lay down the red meat to lead the TParty to the polls. Now the loony's are hooked on the red meat crazy talk and actually think they are going to lead and NOT just follow.

    Now they have to keep feeding them, or be eaten alive by their own creation. You heard Ted and Sarah. They are coming to get you fake conservatives who refused to light their torch to burn America to the ground. They ain't taking NO for an answer.

    What are you going to do about it?

    Not yet but it's happening . We will see. The leadership is saying "never again" . They don't mean never again getting brow beat and out played by the emperor . They mean never again will they allow the base of the party to make party policy .

    Next round will be even tougher because the emperor will take the country to the brink again, so he can reverse the sequester cuts. If the party doesn't stay united in preserving the cuts then the party will lose all they gained. Bonehead probably saved his neck for now . But there are a whole bunch in the Senate who need to take a fresh look at their right flank come next year .

    Government by fear, probably doesn't work very well or is good at finding a true consensus. For sure its obvious that this country won't be a majority far right wing country, no matter the ambitions and actions of Ted, and Sarah.

    Good luck getting enough people to follow those loons. Good luck getting that third party. Coalitions are what will survive in the political system and governance arena. Not just hollering. Stop the noise and the world will be PEACEFUL.

    As an aside, when the sequester was negotiated, right wingers AGREED with the left that the sequester was BAD for everybody. That's why they THOUGHT they could get a budget deal, because the alternative was soooooo bad...

    But, you guys LIKE the sequester... Were you lying when it was negotiated?

    You can't count Tom. A 20% across the board cut of a weak economy that is only at 2% growth itself, is a too fast contraction for any adjustments to be made and increases unemployment on an already weak cash strapped citizenry. Put people before profits and deficits and create 30 million good paying jobs and you got a full recovery.

    Give 'em welfare, or give 'em wages. Give 'em neither and they have little choice but to take whatever they can. Even yours. The good news is you won't have anything to take by then. That's what the sequester is all about, to think of how to best expand the flow of money. Fix the spigot that stops the trickle you supply siders have falsely touted.

    As the population grows, so must the economy to support them. SIMPLE MATH!

    Enough to know you don't have enough right wing votes to change a damn thing but you have enough noise to break the peace.

    Ignoring the math doesn't make you smart. Listening to Ted, and Sarah doesn't make you smart either. Following their example does make you dumb though, big time. Take back your brain, and the rest of the country will listen, if not follow.

    As opposed, listening to Obama, Dingy and Mimi? Bwa ha ha!

    Here's some numbers for you.

    It's not unexpectedly come to this. From Alan "Republicans want you to die quickly" Grayson's latest fundraising effort, "now you know what the "T" stands for" in Tea Party.
