Tea Party Jettison Principles (Who'd Have Thunk It?)

Every time I hear the phrase "Tea Party" I picture Patrick off of Sponge Bob Squarepants wearing a tricornered hat toasting marshmallows on a burning cross at a Klan rally. But some people still try to tell me that the Tea Party is not comprised solely of ignorant adult babies with hate psychoses. Can you believe that??? So I can't wait to ask one of these 'bagger apologists how they'd rationalize this:

[A] tea party leader told reporters he'd be willing to accept a bump in the debt ceiling if Republicans promise to put an end to "military effeminzation."

This means they who present balancing the budget as the cornerstone of their entire philosophy, their very Raison d'être if you will, would happily blow all that off just to piss off the gays by keeping DADT.

These.

People.

Are.

F*cking retarded.

I can't say I'm much surprised the 'baggers would dump their principles - they always seem a little too ADD/psychotic to hold a thought for long. But who'd have bet on it being a [bad] piece of Clinton legislation that they'd sell out for? There's some irony-clad stupid.
