Dear Tea Party: You will now get yours

And now, hot on the heels of our recent letter to whiny young Democrats, a loving shout-out to all those moderates and independents, confused conservatives and hard-line Repubs who went just a little more than slightly insane this past election.

To all of you who either flip-flopped your wishy-washy ideals and switched your vote from bluish to reddish this past election because Obama and the lukewarm Dems failed to solve all world problems in 700 days, or because you got yourself so emotionally riled up/mentally watered down by the sexy caveman grunts of the Tea Party that you actually bought the BS line about being "mad as hell" about nothing even remotely coherent.

Here is your grand message: You are hereby wonderfully, thoroughly screwed.

1. As long as we keep calling them names they should come racing back to us

Right?

2. Be sure to keep us informed

whether kissing their asses accomplishes anything.

6. So when someone calls progressive anti-American, welfare queens

Your instinctive response is to go, "Golly, maybe they're right!"

3. There is a not so fine line between cogent satirical observation, and calling people names.

Right?

4. How Quick The Worm Turns...

Ya know...ya go back a couple years take out rushpublican and put in Democrat and we were hearing the same old shtick...which many on this side of the sandbox bought. Now it's on their side and the knives have been out for a long time.

The teabaggers have created a lot of buzz and inflated self-importance that will be Boner and McConnell's biggest nightmares and visa versa. The establishment that created them now is trying to contain them...they used them to gain control of the House (but blew the Senate) and now the teabaggers can go away until they're needed again. We'll see how many sell out...should make the 2012 primary season quite amusing.

5. As much as I try

I cannot stand Mark Morford. I read the SFGATE every day (one of the best online newspapers around) and will scan his columns. They are filled with arrogance and condescension for the everyday person.

Sometimes he has good points, but he goes out of his way to be pedantic and smarmy.
