I will repeat this ad nauseum. It is sad that our comedians are making more sense than politicians or the voting population.

He additionally illustrates either the ineptitude or misinformed state of many of the Tea Party types like Greg T Nelson who acknowledged […]

CNBC’s Simon Hobbs, by no means a Democratic sympathizer excoriated the Republicans in general and Speaker Boehner in particular on the debt ceiling debate.
