John Boehner Stuck Between Tea Party And A Hard Place

Quote:
"They certainly talked the talk before the election," said Tim Dake of the Wisconsin Grandsons of Liberty. "They told us what they knew we wanted to hear and sought us out."

After the election, not so much. "All of a sudden they stopped taking our calls and were no longer interested in what we had to say," Dake said.
Awww, I feel so bad for the Tea Party...not like there were thousands of people mocking them for working hard to elect many GOP candidates because it paid lip service to them.

For the Tea Party to claim the GOP "used" them...is much like a ***** claiming the John used her. Like the *****/John relationship, the TP/GOP both got what they needed from their insidious conjuction.

I'm trying to figure out which woman's name could trigger the language filter.

Yes, obviously he campaigned on the platform to completely ignore UN actions that are required by treaty. /sarcasm

Should we also also ding Bush Junior for commitment of military resources for the UN actions of the second Liberian civil war, and the Haitian Rebellion? I have never heard anyone utter a peep about those 2 in comparison to Libya.

Oh Puhleeze the """Tea Party""" was founded by Dick Armey and John Stossel's Freedomworks on the premis that they could wrap themselves in the flag and get the bobbleheads to support whatever cause was paying them big money

The tea party didn't go into the Democrat and Republican races to be accepted, they went in to have an effect on the behavior and direction of politics since Obama caused their birth.
