On Friday's All In show, MSNBC host Chris Hayes asserted that "Washington is broken because the Tea Party broke it," adding that the Tea Party strategy on changing the budget process was to "impose economic suffocation." Hayes:
Washington is broken because the Tea Party broke it. They broke it on purpose. They broke the normal budgetary process, replaced it with government recurring crisis, all so they can use control of one-half of one branch of government to impose economic suffocation on the country as a whole.
The MSNBC host's comments came as he began the show by fretting over polls finding that Americans who do not want Congress to authorize an increase in the debt ceiling outnumber those who do. Hayes began:
Tonight on All In, we could be just five legislative days away from a government implosion, but a shocking 44 percent of Americans agree with Republicans that we should send the country into an economic abyss.
After delivering plugs for other stories, he returned to the debt ceiling issue:
But we begin tonight with a new poll that shows a plurality of Americans favoring imminent catastrophe. The NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll shows 44 percent of Americans opposed to raising the debt ceiling, with only 22 percent in favor.
He then added:
Now, at first blush, that is both an upsetting and staggering finding since not raising the debt ceiling would mean a government default and all the cascading miseries that come after that. But, of course, what this poll actually shows is that no one really understands what the debt ceiling really means.

Project we much....
If MSLSD comes up with “shocking 44 percent” it must really be around 90% that agree with the TEA Party!
Nice of the libtards to credit us with so much power, given that most citizen activist groups under that banner have never received tax exempt status from Obama's IRS, and are merely concerned Americans who network online and attend the occasional rally.
Oh, and they vote people into office who at least make an attempt to represent their political will and interests.
The left only owns all of academia, the media, the federal bureaucracy, the Senate, the White House, the military, every federal agency, every big city government, the unions, the foundations, the tech sector, the financial sector, and close to half of the House of Representatives --- but they're powerless to stop a bunch of ordinary folks with home computers and cell phones.
Geeez......what do you think would happen if several million of us camped out in DC for a month or two? Maybe all the libtards would jump into the Atlantic ocean in mass suicide??
The currant president hasn’t submitted a budget in years as required, I believe< by the Constitution.
My theory is that they scout at mental institutions and find the ones that are the most insane, but are able to appear sane no matter what craziness drools out of their mouths. They can always edit the crazy parts that don't fit in with their agenda.
“Global Warming is very ,very scientific. In fact it is SO scientific that it deserves a word than means “Greater than science” to tell you how real and true it is....
(Chris Hayes goes to a window)
HEY RED CAR GUY! WHERJA GET THAT RED CAR?!!!!!!?!?!?
(walks back to desk)
More on MSLSD as it happens. We don't just report the news, we make it up.”
The stupid is strong with this one. Although, I would like Chris Hayes to know that I hope he is correct one day.

What is it we're breaking?
If only this were true.
Four or five in the last 60+ years is not that long of a line
I thought they’ve been saying the Tea Party is dead but now it’s so strong that it broke Washington. Which is it?
Projection from the Hayes a-hat. His ilk made the Feds FUBAR.
Short line, then.
Hastert was Lame, but if there was a communist infiltrator destroying the country I am not sure he would have sat on his hands like Bohner
