I'm praying for rain, sleet, snow, wind, hail and a cloud or two of locusts
to swath the country tomorrow for tea party day. A rain of frogs wouldn't be amiss either.

4. This extravaganza can only be bad for the Republican Party.
Every wingnut they'd rather hide in a closet will be standing in front of cameras with a misspelled sign. And the comedy potential if anyone dares to ask them to explain the idea and how it relates to Obama's tax cut . . . :rofl:

5. I Can't Wait For Thursday's Daily Show...
Yep...the teabaggers aren't your "rank and file"...most have real jobs and real lives to deal with and don't have the luxuary of being a prop at a staged political dog & pony show.

Thus those who remain are either paid party operatives (and there will be plenty on hand), lobbyists and their paid-for props along with the real dead-enders. I expect it to be quite a motely group as you'll see dudes in fancy threads "outraged" next to the next Tim McVeigh.

Of course their hypocrisy will be on display, but they revel in it...somehow the party that looked the other way as billions were squandered for 8 years have little cred when it comes to being "fiscally responsible". They're bitching about tax hikes for the richest 5% while rates are being lowered for the rest of us. Also that they bitch about all the "defecit spending", yet scream like stuck pigs when their favorite defense pork is cut out.

Jon Stewart should get several days of material out of this one.
