"Inglis has criticized Republican House leaders for acquiescing to a poisonous, tea party-driven "demagoguery" that he believes will undermine the GOP - David Aug 4, 11:31 2
- "...and by 'demagoguery' you mean...?" - znufrii Aug 4, 11:35
- Totally true. Heck, a couple STers are teabaggers. Stunning. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:34
So this guy admits he was a douchbag for going after Clinton? -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 4, 11:17 8
- Yes. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:20
- Basically. -- nm - mara Aug 4, 11:19
- Honestly, it's great to see that kind of reflection, and in public too. -- nm - Roger More Aug 4, 11:19 5
  - I suppose it's something... - Mel Profit Aug 4, 11:25 4
    - I know I'm bright-siding, but I didn't really follow US politics before 2002 or so, so didn't get caught up in the whole Clinton saga -- nm - Roger More Aug 4, 11:31 3
      - Limbaugh's show was occasionally played at my school. It was just as polished an act as Howard Stern. Just sub in "Vince Foster murdered" for lesbians -- nm - David Aug 4, 11:38
      - Basically, it was grasping at every straw you could to the point that when you finally got him caught on something, people were tired of it all. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 4, 11:32 1
        
        Heh - I know the gist of it, but I wouldn't know any of the personalities except for Clinton, Lewinsky, her roommate and Kenneth Starr -- nm - Roger More Aug 4, 11:35
Defeated = disgruntled. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Aug 4, 11:16 10
- "Nothing to see here, folks. Move along." -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:20
- Doesn't that describe the entire Tea Party movement? "We lost! Waaaaah!" -- nm - Reagen Aug 4, 11:18 8
  - Which election did the Tea Party lose? -- nm - Dr.Vermin Aug 4, 11:19 7
    - Judging by their platform, every election since about 1980. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 4, 11:25
    - 1964 -- nm - amoxy Aug 4, 11:23
    - that NY congressional one, for a start. But the movement comes close to entirely out of people who didn't vote for Obama. -- nm - Reagen Aug 4, 11:22 4
      - How the hell is that 15 minutes not up yet? (nm) - zombie musubi Aug 4, 11:31 2
        
        they vote. -- nm - znufrii Aug 4, 11:35 1
        
        It was a rhetorical question, mo-mo. (nm) - zombie musubi Aug 4, 11:38
      - *ding* -- nm - znufrii Aug 4, 11:22
I'm so over the Tea Partiers. Can everyone just realize they are glorifying their titles as ignorant racist individuals? -- nm - MDH Aug 4, 11:13 6
- "Everyone plese stop slowing down to rubberneck at the car crash." -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 11:19
- If everyone could realize that, they wouldn't matter. Unfortunately, many can't. -- nm - mara Aug 4, 11:17 1
  - Yeah. Between the Prop 8 announcement, and NOM coming to DC next weekend I can't wait. - MDH Aug 4, 11:19
- Look! He said "I'm so ... racist"! -- nm - Andrew Breitbart Aug 4, 11:14 2
  - neechay -- nm - JaxSean Aug 4, 11:16
  - heh! -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:15
Interesting, thanks for the post. -- nm - mara Aug 4, 11:05
