The Tea-Party caucus took more than a billion in earmarks over the course of the 111th congress, proving once and for all...the tea-baggers are not any better than the rest of the Washington politicians (though an argument could be made that they are worse in that they are doing the same things fiscally, and are also superb hatemongers to boot). The only good news is that by the time 2012 comes around all the TeaBaggers and Republicants will have destroyed themselves by catering to the extremely wealthy (i.e. themselves) and big business (i.e. the companies they sell their souls to). I just hope all the guntoting, hateful, bible thumping right wing whackjobs don't cry themselves to death in 2012 when the evil people they support get swept out of Washington again.
