Unless you think Rand Paul has a triple agent in his pocket? Yes, it proves just that.
I'm pretty sure this isn't a conversation worth having. You clearly have a massive hard-on for bashing the tea party. "LOL THERE SO STUPIDS DID U SEE WHAT JOHN STEAWARD SAID ABOUT THEM LAST NIGHT TEE HEE HEE HEE HEE HA HA HA HA" I'm less concerned with misspelled signs than I am with the fact that a guy can run for office on the promise to halve the deficit in his first 100 days only to end up quadrupling it. Even if the tea party is crawling with stupid motherfuckers, I doubt any of them are that bad with numbers.

So you think they are justifiable just because he is wrong? Badgenome. I love your humor, but this logic is just off. Tea party is one of the worst coalitions ever established. It's based off so many inconsistencies and so unfocused it's only natural to understand that it is a media created phenomenon. There's no real discussion or movement happening. It's engineered, and with that, carries the insubstantial rhetoric.
I'm not saying Obama has done a great job, or even a good job, or even just done his job. I'm saying that on either side, there are stupid people, and a lot of people can't spell.

It's just surreal to me how many people fixate on the tea party or Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck (neither of whom holds office at the moment) more than they do the people who are actually running the show. For Christ's sake, the entire Democratic platform this year seems to be, "The Tea Party is fucking crazy! (Also, George W. Bush!)" Expecting cogent, well-articulated platforms from a large and organic mass movement like the Tea Party (I guess it's not Astroturf after all!) is just unrealistic. "You spent too much money" isn't a bad theme, though, IMO.

That's probably why the democrats are 10 points behind the republicans on the generic "Which party would you vote for" gallup poll.
The largest it's ever been in like the 50 Years of the poll running. Of course, luckily for the democrats, you can't just run blind like that. I remember when "Any democrat" would of crushed Bush... unfortunitly, any democrat, couldn't crush him... because they were all less palatable then your generic democrat.
The future is going to be in people who were never politicians.
