basically interchangeable lackeys of the Kochs and Waltons. In 2009-2010 we had the WH and huge majorities in the Congress, and still acquiesced to the tiny minority of teabaggers. How can Reid and Pelosi and Obama not be considered small with that in mind?

Edit: Then there's Obama's predecessor, who's also mean, dumb, and has never earned an honest dime in his entire life, yet somehow achieves "leader of the free world" status.
