TEA PARTY FUNNIES

With all the Tea Party-driven budget threats going on, I thought it would be nice to have some fun and post a few Tea Party comics, by assorted artists, from The Week


Let's start with one of the dominant Tea Party stories most Americans are seeing today ...



But the real Tea Party story today - good, bad, or indifferent - is what's happened to both the Republican Party and the Democratic Party during these budget talks ...
What's interesting though is that most level headed GOP and Tea Party supporters understand what their "no tax" pledges really means in the long run ...




Still, it's the GOP who's taking the brunt of the Tea Party challenges and demands ...
As Speaker John Boehner has been learning over the past year ...


But we still need to remind ourselves - and the Tea Party supporters - that regulation and taxes on wealth have never been the issue, as Teddy Roosevelt made clear over a century ago ...

P.S.: Oh, almost forgot this one from South Park (fair warning, language may be offensive to some) ...



Kudos to Rafael for the lead-in to this ;-) ...
