Tea Party Downgrade: Timeline for the stupid

November 2006: Democrats win back the House and the Senate

January 2007: Democrats sworn in to power, control the agenda with a two-thirds majority.

November 2008: Democrats win the presidency, increase the majority in the House and Senate. Democrats have “supermajority” filibuster-proof status in the Senate. Complete control of 3 of 3 (House, Senate, Presidency)

January 2009: Democrats sworn in

November 2010: Democrats lose House and filibuster-proof Senate, still control two of three

January 2011: Democrats super majority ends, Dems down to majority status controlling the Senate and presidency.

I just checked all 535 members of congress and not one of them had a “T” behind their names. Mostly R’s, D’s, and a few I’s. No T’s. And I just checked S&P, and there’s no such thing as the Tea Party there.

So, those that blame the Tea Party are merely the uneducated, the stupid, and the useful idiots who probably can’t count to 10 without using both hands.
