The Freak Show Congress
You heard it here first: The Congress that starts in January will be known as the Freak Show Congress. Things are going to become very strange once the House teabaggers get to work.

Boehner is going to wish he was still in the minority. Just watch.

:popcorn:

2. yeah, that all remains to be seen... remember how Obama talked about 'change'
and forgot about that the moment the election was over?

It will probably be something similar with the teabaggers. After all, the core of their platform is steeped in insincerity.

7. I use the term loosely, of course
because there is really nothing of substance about the teabagger movement.
