I think it’s too bad that some Tea Partiers would rather pout than govern.
But LEADERS, even GOP Leaders, don’t have the luxury of throwing temper tantrums when they don’t get every single thing they want.
Speaker Boehner has offered a budget bill to the House that, among other benefits, clips the budgets of the IRS and EPA.

As those Tea Partiers “peel away”, Nancy Pelosi says to the GOP’s leaders, “Let ME help you govern, just restore the budgets for...”
So what has just happened?
The Hard Right has just EMPOWERED the Hard Left!
It’s enough to make you wonder why the GOP is called “the smart party”.

Tea Party/Conservatives voted GOP so they would govern like small govt Constitutional Conservatives. We do not vote GOP so they can govern likeobama.
Why the hell not?
It's a very effective tactic in today's really really dumb voter political climate, with total ignorance of things financial, like our ever increasing national debt.
It work flawlessly for the 'Rats.
Haven't you ever read The Art of Political War by David Horowitz?
