It's not that they use it... It's the hypocrisy of decrying the "frivolous government spending", and then becoming the top users of the system they complained about...
:Whistle
Really......did you expect anything less from them? I'm surprised that anyone thought that the Tea Party candidates would be any different when they got into office than any other politician, right or left. Don't tell me the rightie voters actually BELIEVED all the Tea Party rhetoric.......surely they are not that dumb.....surely, I mean really, could they have actually thought these Tea Party members were immune to the politics of being in POWER?
Spending a little extra money on postage to prevent a Dem from winning and expanding a stimulus program that isn't working is a good use of funds. Your story is not a game changer and will not make any GOP voters switch.
