'a good chunk of the republican caucus is either stupid, crazy, ignorant or craven cowards that are desperately afraid of the teaparty people'

m$nbc

1. K&R - he made a lot of sense. A SANE Republican (there used to

be some!)

[notadmblnd]

2. tea party = Koch brothers

and they're pretty powerful. But don't think for a minute that they're afraid of the average Joe teabagger. Those guys are disappearing fast. Not many even showing up for their rally's any longer.

3. meanwhile we have 64 of these raving lunatics IN CONGRESS!!!!

[gratuitous]

4. Where have Bartlett and his "sensible" fellow Republicans been?

Certainly the Democrats have been opposing the Tea Bagger nitwits for the last year or so. Now that the inmates have nearly seized control of they asylum, we finally hear from Republicans who don't think that this good chunk of the Republican caucus is doing the right thing.

Well thanks a fucking heap, Mr. Bartlett. Your craven tardiness is duly noted.

5. i guess it's cause he's out of politics...he was a big critic of bu$h* the junior

chris matthews asked why nobody else was saying this....asked why he had to drag bartlett on his show to hear this......
