There has been so much craziness coming out of Washington lately, it boggles the mind.
It amazes me that we elect and re-elect this bunch of nut cases. It makes me speculate about the motives of some of them. For some, personal gain, for others, time in the limelight, others just plain bat-shit crazy. One clown I think has visions of reading Dr. Seuss to us from the oval office.
I think for a lot of them it is hatred of the man in the white house, and they are willing to trash the country to get at him.
But what really amazes me, is how so many every day people think of them as heroes. Some of these are the very same people who are being hurt by the policies and actions of the tea bagger congress. They either can't or don't want to see. To them Obama is to blame....just because he's Obama.
And they all STILL know for sure that he is not an American.
Many of these people are using the very services that are being shut down, and are mad about it...but still think the shut down is cool. To them it's not the fault of our wacked-out congress, but Obama's fault for not giving in to them.
Everybody wants a better life, but some people hate the very people who are trying to give it to them, and are more than happy to embrace the ones who would take it away.
According to one ( other wise ) smart person I know " The tea party is the light, and is responsible for all that is good for our future".
I guess I shouldn't really be surprised, after all I live in Utah ( Tea Bag Central ) home of Ted Cruz's lap dog Mike Lee.
