That's a pretty big claim. Provide names and ACTUAL things each has done to earn such disapproval.If you cant or won't your post is just another baseless partisan rant.
Do you consider 10% approval rating a success? I call it a failure.

Not many Americans follow campaign contributions and who is giving.
You can vote for Ron Paul. I know I will.

I know. But I don't think Paul will get the R nomination.
I was for Paul in 2008 and am again in 2012. He's doing better this go round but I think it will end up Obama and Romney..both BAU type of politicians.

Yesterday's action was not a failure for a day that started out chilly with rain and mud, on a work day when most people could not attend; work has been slow for me so I'm able ti attend some of these events during the work week, also I only live 15 minutes away which allowed me to wait till the rain had stopped before heading over, others that would had to travels hours had to make a decision to go or not several hours earlier when it was still rainning and some weather reports calling for rain most of the day, I'm not sure I would have made the lengthly trip with that in mind.
People were coming and going all day, that last pic I snapped of the 2 Ron Paul supporters was taken as I was existing the Capital grounds and they were entering.

Nice try at diversion.

EVERY ONE now knows the term teabagger means and its history.

People like you who keep using it only shows how immature and shallow they are.

They have LESS credibility then Congress.

The poll is meaningless when you look at details such as less then 50% of ALL Americans vote.

Many of those that do couldn't tell you who the VEEP is.

When you have an ignorant voting population whose opinions are swayed by an issue driven media we shouldn't expect anything else.

If the media for 3 solid months reported that Mickey Mouse was actually a rat, then did a poll in 4 months the vast majority of those polled would say he is a rat.

If they joined together, they might get something done.
Why would the tea party associate with criminals. You know, the ones that tossed a smoke bomb onto WH property? Best to stay away from that sort of behavior.

Breaking into a house that you don't own is not a criminal act?

You do not have to vote for the guy who wins the nomination.

I know that. I didn't in 2008. But we know how this will end.
I think Obama will get re-elected.

I have never used the term. Please make an effort to keep track of who says and what.
