Is Joyce Mitchell (guard accused of helping escapees) a Tea Bagger?

You be the judge. Someone in that house appears to be.

1. I'm not sure it matters

The crime she's accused of had no political overtones.

2. I disagree. Everything is political with tea baggers.

And helping convicted killers escape certainly could have political implications. Don't forget, one of them was convicted of shooting a sheriff's deputy and running over him with the cruiser. Tea baggers hint at armed insurrection. What better way of stirring things up than springing a cop killer loose from prison and triggering a massive law enforcement response?

3. Maybe, maybe not

I think you're overthinking it but that's ok

6. "Everything is political with tea baggers."

Apparently they don't have an exclusive claim to that trait.

8. "Everything is political with tea baggers."

...you said, as you attempt to link Teabaggers to the prison escape.

[yellowcanine]

9. Actually Joyce Mitchel did that. She is a registered Republican and

she flies the tea party flag outside her house. She is accused of helping two prisoners escape, one of whom killed a sheriff's deputy. May not prove anything but she is the link.

12. Was that the sound of an "ironic bomb" falling?

good one

4. The good news is, she won't be voting in 2016

5. CNN is not yet exhausted by their own silliness and obsession over this.....it is like they their

ratings success with the week long Poop Cruise coverage has them covering shit as a corporate goal.

BREAKING NEWS! Escaped cons not yet caught! Details to follow. And follow. And follow.

Jeff Zucker, you are a fool.

7. Not everything is political.

And in this case, her political leanings are irrelevant.

[HappyMe]

10. It really doesn't make a damn bit of difference.

I don't think her politics have anything to do with this.
