There's a tiny inconvenient fact for the writer: "Cut, Cap & Balance" passed from the House with bi-partisan support least week.

For many, like head of the Tea Party caucus, Michele Bachmann, that was compromise because it raised the debt ceiling period. It was a deal she was not willing to vote for. It was a deal Reid and his party was unwilling to even put up for a vote.

I am gravely concerned the Tea Party movement is on an economic suicide mission today that will destroy the opportunity for winning in 2012 and guarantee a Democrat sweep.

Make no mistake: if the GOP is destroyed by this tantrum in the next few days, they will be out of power for a very, very long time and no viable "third-party" is going to take their place in 2012.

You will have accomplished what the Democrats have not been able to do in 157 years or longer.

We're FINISHED as anything but a single Democrat Party nation.

You are about to do to the nation what the state GOP did in California during the 1990s.

Stop making them so happy!

It's worse than you think. The New World Order gang or gangs fabricated the so-called debt limit crisis for the purpose of stampeding the Public into supporting another abrogation of the Constitution and its limits upon the power of the Federal Government and the Office of the President.

The Cut, Cap, and Balance bill and amendment to the U.S. Constitution effectively transfers the power to appropriate funds and taxes from the originator, the House of Representatives, and the Senate to the Office of the President. Doing so further enhances the power of the President to DICTATE the expenditures or outlays, the receipts or taxes, and control of the entire economy, in addition to the power to wage offensive wars, make treaties with foreign states and organizations, and generally function as a dictator and/or tyrant. All with the blessings of the Democrats, Republicans, and the TEA Party.

A Federal law establishing a budgetary limit was already established by Congress and the DNC with:
PL 95-435,1978, “Sec. 7. Beginning in fiscal year 1981, the total budget outlays of the Federal Government shall not exceed its receipts.”

Ask yourself why is an amendment which further destroys the Constitution needed when the Federal law prohibiting such budgets was already a Public Law in 1978? Was it repealed, or is it just being abrogated?

Do you really want to support another Democrat and Republican effort to strip the American citizens of their right and ability to limit the Federal Government's power to tax and spend and spend and tax at will and impunity? If not, how are you going to communicate your opposition to the representatives in Congress?

Make no mistake: if the GOP is destroyed by this tantrum in the next few days, they will be out of power for a very, very long time .... You will have accomplished what the Democrats have not been able to do in 157 years or longer.

Funny, I thought that John McCain and the rest of the RiNO trimmer-squishes did that in 2008, did I miss something?

You do remember the 2008 and 2006 campaigns, and the excellent Denny Hastert curatorial, middle-of-the-road Speakership that made it all possible, by coddling miscreants like Mark Foley and not expelling immediately grafters like "Cold Cash" Jefferson and stepping on "bridge-to-nowhere" pork-packing Republicans, don't you? Why do I have to review this?

You can go back to driving railroad spikes through Sarah Palin's eyes now.
