[...] while he stomps Martha Coakley into whiny little liberal smithereens. We’re all teabaggers now! Some quick reads while I’m riding the rails:Who’s A Thunk It? — Sexy nude [...]

Does anybody besides the hardened lefties actually take Kos and his ilk seriously anymore? I doubt it. I think they’re just shooting themselves in the foot.

Personally, I’m an ideologue and darn proud of it! But even I don’t fit the Kos claim of demanding “ideological purity.” That’s nonsense.

Let them keep throwing up at the mouth with this garbage. The hard left will soon get brushed out of office!

A Washington Times’ reporter asked Barney Frank to comment on the possibility of a delayed certification. Here is my transcript of the audio of Barney Frank’s response:
REPORTER: Congressman, excuse me, let’s switch gears for a moment and turn to the Massachusetts Senate race that’s going on right now … particularly Scott Brown’s comment that it’s not Mr. Kennedy’s seat or it’s not the Democrat’s seat.
BARNEY FRANK: Of course not. Whoever said it was? It’s the people’s seat. Of course it is.
REPORTER: What about the assertion that …
BARNEY FRANK: We’re the ones who say … I was all for an election, so what is there [unintelligible].
REPORTER: What about the assertion that if Mr. Brown were to win that Massachusetts would find a way not to certify the election?
BARNEY FRANK: That is the stupidest thing I’ve been asked in a long time. Who do you work for?
REPORTER: Washington Times.
BARNEY FRANK: I’m not surprised. That is insane, the suggestion could only come from a demented right wing source. There isn’t the slightest possibility of it happening—a way of doing it. That is conspiracy theory at its most contemptible.

DRJ humorously notes: Take that, you demented right-wing conspiracists at the Washington Times and Boston Herald.

Here’s how the Guardian newspaper in the U.K. explains to the British public who these “Tea Party” people are:

“A collection of tax-hating gun nuts and single-issue cranks who bombard the White House with teabags.”

Read the whole thing (as Instapundit says):

Somebody ought to call them on their ignorance. It isn’t even being partisan; they just haven’t got a clue about the basic facts.

I guess my question would be: who are the teabaggers teabagging? I suppose the answer would have to be the Democrats. Kos must have some experience with it (just look at that freak)and now, apparently, Marth Coakley. Well, I hope she enjoys it.
