I bet if the people started to build a guillotine in Washington some shit would get done.

A dickhead separated from it's body is still a dickhead.

I know, that's funny from a guy named Richard.

True, but it's a less effective dickhead. Much, much less effective. And it's a message to the other dickheads. Sometimes all you need is one good visual.

Tea party Republicans are openly telling reporters that a government default is acceptable. Not a problem. They want more tax cuts to the rich. And more spending cuts to protect existing government welfare. This will only harm others who actually make jobs. And any organization dependent on cash flow.

Tax cuts for the past decade have only destroyed jobs. Undermined the economy. The extremist agenda of 2000 George Jr created our economic problems. Wacko extremist even said, “Reagan proved that deficits do not matter.” The political agenda even forgets that defined their philosophy.

George Jr wacko extremist spending made necessary massive government stimulus to avert a great depression. And still, these wacko extremists want to do more welfare for the rich. Refuse to admit the economic policies that created these debts. These debts are the bills, created four and eight years ago, now coming due. What is their solution? Keep doing what made the problem as if tax cuts and defaults are good. And now, default. They will probably blame the Chinese who hold over $1trillion in US government debt. Debt that was created by lies including Mission Accomplished. Debts we still have not yet paid for.

International observers have no idea how constant the wacko extremist rhetoric is on radio and Fox News. Only the least educated would listen. But that is also how Hitler came to power. Disparage the educated. Mock facts. Promote hate. Brainwashing by soundbytes.

Glen Beck associated a Labor Party summer outing in Norway with Nazi party youth camps. Those who find default acceptable also praise and respect Glen Beck. Do those outside America have any idea how acceptable that is to so many Fox News viewers? Tea party Republicans think a default is good or acceptable. Their political agenda (and the hate that empowers that political agenda) is more important.

Boehner is too liberal for the Tea Party. These people are that wacko extremist. That routinely manipulated by Limbaugh logic.

If a guillotine was built, the Tea Party would praise the accomplishment. Another example of hate that empowers extremists at the expense of moderates and rational thought.
