Delicious. Matt Taibbi brings news of the US Chamber firing on the USS Tea Party:

The news came in
, where the Chamber of Commerce disclosed that it will be teaming up with Republican establishment leaders to spend $50 million in an effort to stem the tide of “fools” who have overwhelmed Republican ballots in recent seasons. Check out the language Chamber strategist Scott Reed used in announcing the new campaign:

Our No. 1 focus is to make sure, when it comes to the Senate, that we have no loser candidates…
That will be our mantra: No fools on our ticket
.

The blunt choice of words is no accident. All year long, as they’ve crept closer and closer to having to face the reality of a Ted Cruz presidential candidacy in 2016 (with Cruz maybe picking
as his more moderate running mate?), the Beltway’s Republican kingmakers have drifted into ever more alarmist language about the need to change course.

It’s been a transparent effort to reassure industry donors that the party's future isn't a bottomless pit of brainless Bachmanns and Cruzes and Santorums, all convinced our Harvard-educated president is a sleeper-cell Arab and that Satan is a literal being intent on conquering Nebraska with U.N. troops.

Earlier this month, for instance, former House Majority Leader and
Tea Party progenitor ####### Armey complained that Republicans have been getting whipped at the polls because "
." And way back in March of last year, Karl Rove himself, speaking on behalf of his Crossroads SuperPAC, told
Fox News Sunday
that "
Rove’s group is reportedly also involved in this new $50 million effort.

The Chamber's announcement was met with howls of outrage from Tea Party-friendly voices, who naturally took immediate offense to the prospect of boycotting "fools" from the political process.

What don't they take offense to? From the Duck Dynasty Douchebags to their War on MSNBC, they manage to take offense to nearly everything. This time, however, they might have met their match.

I would have linked directly to Matt Tiabi's article in Rolling Stone but I like the headline from Crooks and Liars better.

The Democrats will be just as fun, as the looney lefties do their best to derail President-to-be-elected Hillary Clinton.

Who knows, politics might be a smidge less boring with both sides fighting it out.

:pop: anyone?

This would have been a great idea, with great funding sources,

if'n only Karl Rove wasn't involved.

Pardon, f*(k Karl Rove and the horse he rode in on. Repeatedly.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

eb0dfafc.gif anyone?

True. There are a ton of ideological fissures in both parties. Schweitzer has been sounding like he wants to take the pro-gun, pro-coal, pro-union and pro-single payer healthcare wing of the Democratic party. Him and his wife.

This would be just like the "brains" of the GOP,

They have what might be the last possible election they could win and they are our looking for more moderates to piss off the base again.

Yever notice the Left never tells the **-green-union-groups to sit down?

Danno, the non-moderates the Tea Party has put up in competitive races have all lost. It is because of these non-moderate Tea Party candidates that Harry Reid continued to be the Senate Majority leader. There's no other reason, none, for the Democrats' majority in the US Senate today than the Tea Party candidates that pizzed away better than 50/50 shots at the seats that would have given the upper chamber to the GOP. The Tea Party is a cancer and sane Republicans - the few that are left - know it.

I'm confused, I thought Obama started off with a VETO PROOF majority...... you recall back before Rand paul, and those other filibuster-happy guys got elected?

Rand Paul got elected in KY? Anyone with a GOP affiliation could have won there. That wasn't a competitive race. Who has the majority in the Senate today? Had they not run Tea Party idiots in competitive races in 2010 and 2012, the GOP could have won seats NV, MO, IN, DE, WI and VA. Mitch McConnell would have been majority leader since Jan 2013. The Tea Party pizzed that away. But don't listen to me. Keep bringing the lunatics. Put them on the ballot.

No, you do make a point in some of these moderate areas.

The choice is a half-asss win ....or no win.
