Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said on a conference call organized by Karl Rove’s Crossroads organization for large donors and their advisers on Oct. 30 that the Tea Party movement, in his view, is a “nothing but a bunch of bullies” that he plans to “punch … in the nose.”
On the call, according to a donor who was on it, McConnell personally named Sens. Mike Lee (R-UT) and Ted Cruz (R-TX) as Tea Party conservatives he views as problematic for him. “The bulk of it was an attack on the Tea Party in general, Cruz in particular,” the source, a prominent donor, said in a phone interview with Breitbart News.
But the most memorable line came at the end of the call.
“McConnell said the Tea Party was ‘nothing but a bunch of bullies,’” the source said. “And he said ‘you know how you deal with schoolyard bullies? You punch them in the nose and that’s what we’re going to do.’”

After getting a swirly in the boys room by dingy harry, he wipes his chins off and calls Ted Cruz and Mike Lee bullies.
“How dare those conservative Tea Party Republicans be proven right! We can’t have that!”
IF YA FEEL “FROGGY” JUMP, BITCH!
Wot an idiot!
DITCH MITCH is worthy of a tattoo now.
I wonder if he's been hiring the drooling morons that play the knock out “game”?
Is that what the billions of dollars that he sold us out for is going to?
Things I hope I hear the day after the election:
“Mitch unexpectedly loses to Matt Bevin by 56%”
“38% of the 56% of the votes that unseated McConnell were from TEA Party members according to the exit polls”
mcconnell more interested in fighting conservatives than socialist democrats destroying the damn country right in front of him.
Why is it he never talks like that about his ‘friends’ across the aisle?
Because they’re on the same side. They’re all big government types. I bet McConnell has more in common politically with Chuck Schumer than Ted Cruz.
*So Mitch, how many votes do you think this will yield for the Republican cause after you start punching your base voters in their noses?
Brilliant strategy! *
Maybe instead of shaking hands and kissing babies, he’ll shake babies and punch voters in the nose!
Obammy gave Richard Luger his Medal of Freedom the other day.
We look forward to McConnell getting his, & as soon as possible.
Because he’s not philosophically different from the socialist democrats.
He’s perfectly fine with the “Grow the Government” game. His only disagreement with the democrats is that they get to set the rules.
Actually a kick in the ass out the door would be better IMO.
Regarding the “bully” Tea Party, Sen. McConnell is essentially complaining that he doesn’t like Congress’s constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers which he hypocritically swore to protect and defend.
yup. as is the entire gop-e/rino leadership.
I bet McConnell has more in common politically with Chuck Schumer than Ted Cruz.
McConnell’s behavior toward the Dems is similar to the insurance companies dealing with single payer marxists.
McConnell just wants a seat at the table and a slice of the pork. That the rampaging Dems are burning the country to the ground is of no concern to him. Oink oink.
McConnell is a GOP establishment that needs to go.
he doesn’t even know what the Tea Part is.
It’s the people, Mitch, and if you fail to listen to them, it will be they whp proverbially punch you in the nose be ejecting you from office...which is exactly what we need to see ahppen with these establishment types who believe they are the purviewers of power and decsion making for the rest of us.

This guy is being primaried, right?
Does Bitch ever get this heated with the democrats?
So, Harry Reid overturns 200+ years of tradition and invokes the Nuclear Option on filibusters... and Mitch McConnell wants to punch the TEA PARTY in the nose.
Obama racks up 26 scandals, any one of which would have brought down any Republican President... and Mitch McConnell wants to punch the TEA PARTY in the nose.
Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama single-handedly destroy the entire US health care insurance system, leaving us all with no good options... and Mitch McConnell wants to punch the TEA PARTY in the nose.
Mr. McConnell, your priorities need slight adjustment.
Mitch responds to being nuked by Dems.
