Rand Paul knows how to do it. He'll be the bluegrass Senator shortly.

I love these incidents where a tiny number of people do something out of line, and people are like, "OMG all Teabaggers are like this!".

I saw some folks waving the sickle and hammer at Copenhagen, does that mean all libs are Mao worshipping Reds?

Rush is ****ing awesome. No one hate on Rush.

The band that is.
Rush Limbaugh's retarded.

The difference between Rush Limbaugh and the Hindenburg:
One's a flaming nazi gas bag, and the other is a dirigible.

Except that it keeps happening over and over wherever these fine "citizens" gather.

Still waiting for the TPs to get ornery enough to form little gangs. It's either that, get "serious," or go home. They don't have a leader to make them serious at present and they're too fired up to go home.

Tea Party = maybe it started as one thing, but now it is firmly in the hands of bigots.

Washington (CNN) - House Republican leaders criticized the use of racial slurs against Democratic congressmen, including civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis, by protesters on Capitol Hill Saturday. But they called them isolated incidents that shouldn't overshadow the debate over health care.

Lewis, D-Georgia, said demonstrators protesting the Democrats' health care bill repeatedly yelled a racial slur at him as he left a Democratic heath care meeting and walked to the Capitol.

House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, called the incidents "reprehensible" but said on NBC's Meet the Press "let's not let a few isolated incidents get in the way of the fact that millions of Americans are scared to
death, and millions of Americans want no part of this growing size of government."

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, appearing on NBC, said, "I think the tone of the this entire debate has been denigrated, has been brought down, frankly, by the rhetoric on government takeover, socialism, things that are not accurate."

"Nobody condones that at all," said House Minority Whip Eric Cantor, R- Virginia on ABC's "This Week." "There were 30,000 people here in Washington yesterday. And, yes, there were some very awful things said."

Cantor appeared with House Democratic Caucus chairman John Larson, D-Connecticut, who said the incidents show "everybody ought to ratchet back just a little bit."

Asked about Larson's comment, Cantor said "you know what it is time for? It's time to listen to the American people, and that is the stunning thing about this."

On CNN's "State of the Union," Rep. Mike Pence, R-Indiana, who marched with Lewis in Selma called the slurs "contemptible. I denounce it in the strongest terms."

Has there ever been a far left demonstration where the guys didn't riot?
