Tea Party Rep. Takes On MSNBC Anchor: Obama Will ‘Negotiate with Terrorists’ But Not the GOP

[pacalo]

In light of a New York Times article published Saturday that described an “epic battle” raging within the Republican Party, MSNBC’s Craig Melvin invited tea party congressman Joe Barton (R-TX) on his show and began by asking one question: “Who’s calling the shots, is it Speaker Boehner or Texas Senator Ted Cruz?”

This is the first time I've seen this MSNBC reporter & I hope to see more of him -- he's good. Craig Melvin was in his stride with the way he handled the teabagger congressman.

1. Hell, Sir: A Terrorist Might Keep His Word --- No Republican Will

Pointing out that even terrorists can be negotiated with, while Republicans cannot, is really something a Republican ought not be drawing attention to....

2. That party's stability is becoming more & more unglued.

Like the old 50's "Body Snatchers" movie where creatures from outer space were going to take over the Earth by disguising themselves as humans, one pod at a time, a Stepford-like cult with twisted ideas is trying to get its grip on the people's government, from the White House on down. They're all like robots. I can't remember the last time I've heard an original thought by a Republican in a tv interview.
