and he spent up the surplus on his tax cuts?

She's a fucking racist. The "America we love" ain't going back to 1950 and how things were back then. Sorry. Nope. Get over it or get out.

She only became involved in politics when she was seduced by the crap the Astroturf King, Sal Russo, was selling: Tea Part Express. She is really low hanging fruit.

The level of hate and prejudice from the American Taliban (Tea Party) is unbelievable.

When challenged to name specifics, specific acts, policies or proposals that have been made, these ass-clowns in the right-wing fundie-a-thon called "Tea Party" always - and I mean ALWAYS, not some of the time or most of the time but ALWAYS - come up grasping at straws and chanting their talking points and dog whistles like Zen Buddhists reciting their mantras.

The fact is that "he doesn't love this country like 'we' do" is CLEARLY a call to racial strife and everyone who tries to claim otherwise is either 1) a fool, 2) a useful idiot, or 3) KNOWINGLY LYING. The woman in that video was clearly part #1 and part #2...Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney are 100% from #3...

"Heritage", "Shining City on a Hill" as a proof of their "love" of our nation, whereas President Obama is a "One Worlder" because he's working with nations of the UN to try and restore peace or at least some order in countries such as Libya. Who besides me smells rancid racism thinly disguised by code words? This is bullshit and Soledad wouldn't let this "dog whistle" code go, and good for Soledad!

Maybe it's the racism that some of these journalists have finally had enough of? Whatever it is it's good to see a few of them waking up!

Someone should tell Ms. Tea Party that if you are going to use someone else's sound bites, you should pick someone with half a brain.
