As New Congress Begins, Actions of G.O.P. Leaders Anger Tea Party Activists

By KATE ZERNIKE

As Tea Party politicians prepare to take their seats when the 112th Congress convenes this week, they are already taking issue with Republicans for failing to hold the line against the flurry of legislation enacted in the waning weeks of Democratic control of the House of Representatives and for not giving some candidates backed by Tea Party groups powerful leadership positions.

Just a month ago, Tea Party leaders were celebrating their movement’s victories in the midterm elections.

But as Congress wrapped up an unusually productive lame-duck session last month, those same Tea Party leaders were lamenting that Washington behaved as if it barely noticed that American voters had repudiated the political establishment.

In their final days controlling the House, Democrats succeeded in passing legislation that Tea Party leaders opposed, including a bill to cover the cost of medical care for rescue workers at the site of the World Trade Center attacks, an arms-control treaty with Russia, a food safety bill and a repeal of the ban on gay men and lesbians serving openly in the military. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/23/nyregion/23health.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=%22world%20trade%20center%22%20and%20workers&st=cse

[Liberal Veteran]

4. Teabaggers are persistently pissed.

The only difference is what day of the week it is.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

26. and WHAT exactly they are pissed off AT

Must be a heckuva existence- to be perpetually pissed off at SOMETHING. Must allow very little time for any true happiness. I'd almost feel sorry for them if they weren't also making life harder for the rest of us as well.

:nopity:

[AlinPA]

5. Teabaggers pissed at themselves? What? Teabaggers = republicans. It's stupid to say they are

different.

[Liberal Veteran]

7. True enough. They didn't even bother to change the lipstick and bronzer on that pig.

[CatWoman]

[bobburgster]

9. Teabaggers should be pissed at their name...

oh, never mind, they're too stupid to understand it's an insult.

[muntrv]

10. Let the circular firing squad continue.

[hedgehog]

11. Bohner has made several statements that sounded like he

was admitting that of course, everyone spouts total nonsense during the campaigns, then gets down to real business once elected. I find his causal cynicism to be rather chilling.

[lunatica]

15. He must have been in constant campaign mode for the last two years then

but now he's distancing himself from his big pals, the Teabaggerati. They actually expect him to do something like set fire to the Constitution.

[CatWoman]

12. HAHAHAHAHAHA

“Do I think that they’ve recognized what happened on Election Day? I would say decisively no,” said Mark Meckler, a co-founder of Tea Party Patriots, which sent its members an alert last month urging them to call their representatives to urge them to “stop now and go home!!”

“We sent them a message that we expect them to go home and come back newly constituted and do something different,” Mr. Meckler said. “For them to legislate when they’ve collectively lost their mandate just shows the arrogance of the ruling elite. I can’t imagine being repudiated in the way they were and then coming back and saying ‘Now that we’ve been repudiated, let’s go pass some legislation.’ ”

“I’m surprised by how blatant it was,” he added.

29. Probably......

they're just a tad upset that they have to live on the same planet
as the rest of us. I'm sure we could accomodate their departure with
a new space program! Hope they remove their stupid "teabags" when they
reach their new planet

[SpiralHawk]

13. TeaBagliCons are such SuckerPuppets

They really thought they could trust the RepubliCorp which bankrolled & continues to manipulated their very own SuckerPuppet existence.

Reality is refudiating the SuckerPuppet TeaBagliCon fantasy...

[AC_Mem]

16. Just because teabaggers

have the loudest mouths, does NOT mean that they are the majority. This election was bought and therefore it does NOT reflect the will of the majority of Americans.

This ought to be a very interesting 2 years. I sincerely hope Democrats are smart enough to give the GOP enough rope to hang themselves. Once the American public finds out what was voted into office, hopefully they will run their asses off to the polls in 2012 to straighten this mess out.

Oh and by the way - where is the friggin GOP PLAN that they were supposed to tell us about in September? Was that booklet that Boner waved at the bar & grill ceremony nobody attended their plan?

If so, God help us all.

[malaise]

17. Where were the baggers when lame duck ReTHUGS

impeached Clinton?

[Cal33]

23. I don't think they existed as a group yet at that time.

[Renew Deal]

18. All the items listed in this article were popularly supported

And more popular than the fraudulent teabaggers.

[TheCowsCameHome]

22. "I hate you Mommy and Daddy"

- Baggers to GOP

[tex-wyo-dem]

31. WTF?!!

"Tea Party leaders opposed...a bill to cover the cost of medical care for rescue workers at the site of the World Trade Center attacks, an arms-control treaty with Russia, a food safety bill and a repeal of the ban on gay men and lesbians serving openly in the military."

I mean, really? How could any sane, decent person oppose ANY of that legislation?

Oh, never mind...

[Zax2me]

34. Ha....HA

Let the infighting BEGIN!
