GOP Tea Bagging


I am glad I am not the only one wondering if all the GOP blathering about holding "tea bag events" was poorly thought out or just plain crazy.


Mark Cooper, wrote this in todays LA Times




"The FreedomWorks site says the Tea Party movement began in reaction to President Obama's corporate bailouts and ensuing yawning budget deficits. These same conservatives, however, were mum when George W. Bush erased our budget surplus and put us deep in the red by drunken spending on a pointless war in Iraq and by, yes, granting massive tax rollbacks for the loaded country clubbers who fund the GOP (and Armey's FreedomWorks). Another bothersome detail: The bailouts were also initiated by Bush."


After years of giving it to us in the ass, the electorate told them to stop.
Now they want to get together for a tea bagging party.
I guess it sorta makes sense...


(Re; The dogs at tea party pic - I am sure the dogs in the picture are perfectly nice, I don't mean to associate them with any of this political stuff or anything. )
