(Getty Images) It's tax day and Anderson Cooper just couldn't help himself from some sweet, sweet teabagger puns. Rachel Maddow has been having all the fun this week while mocking the ridiculous monicker of the conservative anti-Obama movement protesting the president's economic policies. But Cooper couldn't hold back any longer. While visiting with David Gergen, the director of the Center for Public Leadership, last night, Cooper slipped in a clever teabag joke. The two were talking about the Republican party's attempts to find its voice after a crushing election season. When Gergen pointed out that the party couldn't find it's voice, Cooper quickly joked ... Read Full Story

OOOOOK… I’m not a big fan of politics or politicians because of the back and forth bullshit with no resolve, and constant manipulation of people to get attention to one side or the other. And a lot of times they do the most retarded crap to gain notoriety or attention, and yesterday was one of those days for conservatives. On April 15 th , tax day, thousands of republicans and conservatives organized a group to protest the recent stimulus packages and bailouts for Americans and American companies. They lovingly referred to themselves as “tea baggers” yes, I’m not shitting you… “tea baggers”. Attempting to ... Read Full Story

Dr. Ron Paul has suggested that it is not un-American to talk about secession. The state of Oklahoma passed a resolution, which basically says they don’t have to listen to the federal government. Not since the Dixicrats and the federalization of the Arkansas National Guard, have we seen such bitter talk about leaving the union. Usually talk of secession brings to mind the Southern states forming the Confederacy and the long bloody Civil War, which killed more than 600,000 Americans on both sides of the conflict. The war, which pitted brother against brother, was the costliest in terms of life loss in the history ... Read Full Story

Wiesel, a survivor of the Holocaust, took issue with the Teabagger movement's disgusting comparisons of health care reform to Nazi death camps. The 'Baggers responded with typical class: "The jews need to clam up and accept the fact that they are in a Christian country." "This hollowcost thing is totally overblown by the jewish." Disgusting.

From a friend, watching the Teabaggers on a live stream:I'm watching Steve King's "house call" tea party rally streaming online. King & Hoekstra are giving them directions on how to get visitors passes & sit in the gallery during the vote... this could get interesting.

Okay, I don't often link to Dana Milbank, but today, he has some of the color from the teabagger rally on Capitol Hill yesterday. I found this particularly interesting: More ominously, a man standing just beyond the TV cameras apparently suffered a heart attack 20 minutes after event began. Medical personnel from the Capitol physician's office -- an entity that could, quite accurately, be labeled government-run health care -- rushed over...

This is typically hilarious from John Hinderaker: Byron York has been following MoveOn.org's effort to enforce left-wing conformity on the Democratic Party. The latest news is that MoveOn has raised nearly $3.6 million to defeat any Senate Democrat who has the temerity to vote against government takeover of health care. Heh. Tell that to Dede Scozzafava, Charlie Crist and Carly Fiorina. To be fair, too many progressive bloggers engage in...

Joe Lieberman’s above-ground slime cave was not the only office that was invaded and briefly colonized yesterday: 12 anti-abortion people were arrested outside some suite that belonged to Nancy Pelosi and were charged with all kinds of distinctions within the disorderly conduct family. The AP does not want to assume these people were associated with [...]

As I reported in the Morning News, there was another flagrant teabagging in Washington DC today. Rep. Todd Akin of Missouri today led a crowd of Teabaggers in front of the Capitol in a rousing recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. He said it "drives liberals crazy" when people say the Pledge. Well, our skin doesn't burn or anything when you say it aloud, Rep. Akin, but it does drive us crazy when somebody gets all smug about owning the...

It seems that the only lesson the Republican Party is taking away from their loss of New York's 23rd District is to purge the party: RNC Chairman Michael Steele, channeling his party's energized conservative wing, said the party will "come after" moderates who support President Obama's domestic policies. "[C]andidates who live in moderate to slightly liberal districts have got to walk a little bit carefully here, because you do not want to...
