Friends....These Tea Party people strapped dynamite on themselves and threatened to blow up the country and the worlds econonmy unless they got what they wanted. They actually put a gun to the heads of 300 million Americans, you and me, and told us that if we don't do it their way and sign on to this absurd, proven failure of an ideology they will blow our dreams away.....
They took the nation hostage and they did more damage to this country than Osama Bin Ladin ever did.
And friends, this FAA hostage taking is costing us 70,00 jobs and 35 million dollars a day. All so they can lower wages of you and me!? Because when Unions take a beating, we all do
No one cares VL if workers take a beating, if they lose wages, if they lose benefits.......not so long as our overlords (the very wealthy and the big corporations) are not hurt. It's quite simple, Republicans will go to their demise swearing that if we just keep the overlords happy it will eventually trickle down to us serfs......unfortunately, eventually has yet to show up.

And less taxes generates more revenue and creates more Jobs..In all of human history it hasn't done it yet, but it looks good on paper and sounds great on the AM radio....
Theres no way TEA PARTY TERRORISTS could have got away with this 20, 30, 40 or 60 years ago..America was too smart then..Joe McCarthy would be a big Star in the Republican Party nowadays..
I mean could a person like Sarah Palin who couldn't pass a 5th grade history or geography class run for president 50 years ago?

And they've suckered the population into supporting those efforts for going on 80 years now, which is why we find ourselves with a $16.5 Trillion debt limit, a debt that is 100% of our GDP and future unfunded liabilities topping $100 Trillion and growing faster than the cost of health care. They call themselves progressives, but the only thing they seem to be able to promote progress in is the amount of money spent by the folks in DC in excess of the tax revenue it collects.
