Krugman gets to the heart of the Tea Bagger problem.

“(T)oday’s G.O.P. is, fully and finally, the party of Ronald Reagan — not Reagan the pragmatic politician, who could and did strike deals with Democrats, but Reagan the antigovernment fanatic, who warned that Medicare would destroy American freedom. It’s a party that sees modest efforts to improve Americans’ economic and health security not merely as unwise, but as monstrous. It’s a party in which paranoid fantasies about the other side — Obama is a socialist, Democrats have totalitarian ambitions — are mainstream. And, as a result, it’s a party that fundamentally doesn’t accept anyone else’s right to govern.

“In the short run, Republican extremism may be good for Democrats, to the extent that it prompts a voter backlash. But in the long run, it’s a very bad thing for America. We need to have two reasonable, rational parties in this country. And right now we don’t.”

Well, at least one Republican thug is sorry for being a cretin. I’m sure his mind is still convinced he’s right, but at least he realizes that throwing money and yelling in the face of a guy with Parkinson’s is uncivil.

I’d be sorry for all the bad press he’s getting but he did bring it upon himself. Hell, he even lied about being in the video.

Compassionate conservatism. Even when they’re sorry it takes a long damn time to get there.

I feel bad for any small town about to be overrun by thousands of lunatics. Too bad Searchlight, NV is the one in the crosshairs.

More on the upcoming Tea Bagger occupation – and possible vandalism – of Searchlight, NV.

And I thought these morons were FOR small town living.

Hugh Jackson on the tea bag invasion as well as the Health Care Reform fallout.

Could she get any crazier? is what we all ask about Palin.

The answer, as always, is yes.

Look at this little bitch.

He wants to tar and feather you if you don’t agree with turning over the country to corporations and letting churches take over the rest of government. He wants you to beat any women who wants to think for herself or, god forbid, do anything they feel is necessary with their bodies. He wants you to homeschool and then not teach your children anything of import, much less factual.

In short, he’s a right wing Republican.

Think you can take him? I know I can. These are the pricks who like to start fights and then let others do their dirty work. But unlike foreign wars, only the old, infirm, and uneducated will fight a war for Republicans to destroy our nation. No inner-city kids looking for a way out. No minorities at all in any numbers to make a difference. Well, in Florida maybe. But women? Forget it. Immigrants already have you guy’s number.

Who is gonna fight your revolution jerk? You? I highly doubt it. Outside of white supremacists and NASCAR morons, you’re SOL.

So bring it if you feel that strongly. I’d love to see my side mop the floor with you bastards.

Or, as one commenter noted:
