Here we go! One, just one, of the problems the Tea Party has is all these loonies they have as "leaders." :lol:

Ever since GOP stalwarts Anthony H. Gioia and Patrick P. Lee announced their intention to hold a fundraiser for Democratic Rep. Brian Higgins, the two have encountered subtle pushback from some other Republicans.

 

“They’re all a bunch of RINOs,” Paladino said, referring to ardent conservatives’ name for those they consider Republicans in Name Only. “It will be me, some heavy hitters, and some tea party types.”

 

Paladino, meanwhile, continues to single out Higgins for his sharpest criticism. The real estate developer portrayed the congressman as a Pelosi puppet on a Scott Street billboard for several months earlier this year. And The Buffalo News profiled the deeply personal feud between the two in March, featuring particularly caustic barbs aimed by both men toward each other. The two are South Buffalo neighbors and related by marriage.

 

“I don’t respect him, his politics, his demeanor nor his personality,” Paladino said then, citing Higgins’ “arrogance.”

 

In turn, the congressman shot back.

 

“Carl is the worst kind of coward this community will ever know,” Higgins said. “He hides behind his dirty money and sits in his Ellicott Square cave spewing his venom and hateful emails every day. He’s pathetic, disgraceful and a broken man.”

To Gatorboy anything that could be construed negatively toward conservatives is noteworthy, while anything that could be construed negatively toward liberal douchebaggery is irrelevant. This is why a family dispute between a couple of NY politicians is illustrative of tea baggers in dissaray while the revelation that President Dipshit's repeated assurance about his signature legislation turning out to be a bald faced lie is just a minor detail being harped on by zealous idealogues.

 

That is if gatorboy was even a legit poster.
