Seriously, what else can explain their actions of the past 35 years, since the Reaganistas took over a formerly rational political party? Consider these few examples of many:
Number A: Teapublicans in Congress are openly sabotaging negotiations between the USA and a hostile foreign power, even though the Constitution says that foreign policy is in the Executive Branchs portfolio. So Boehners invitation to Bibi to address the Congress is more than just another of his drunkards hissy-fits: it violates the Constitution. Not that he is any stranger to extra-constitutional actions, of course. Look at his actions as they relate to womens rights, minority rights, voting rights, and so on: Boehner and the rest of his party are actively breaking the law, based on an illegal premise, for an illegal purpose.
Letter 2: Teapubbies are a load of Christian evangelicals who want to trash the Establishment Clause and set up a Theocracy. They claim that this is a Christian nation, even though the law pretty clearly says otherwise:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Thirdly: Teapubbies are frequently Secessionist scumballs. Such as the seditious Republic of Texas, the Southern National Congress, and the League of the South, to name but a very few.
All of these groups and people are Right-Wing Teabaggers, Libertarians and Teapublicans. None of them are Liberals. And all of them obviously hate America and its Constitution. By their actions we know them.
Likewise we know that people who vote for Teapublicans also support sedition, legislative overreach, and religious totalitarianism.
Whats that you say, dear Republican voter? You claim that you support the Constitution?
Bull-f***ing-s***. When you vote for a person or party that treats the law of the land like a**wipe, you support that treatment, as surely as if it were your own toilet into which the soiled Constitution got dropped and flushed away.
By our votes people know us. If you are voting for Teapubbies *flush*

Don't you remember their founding days? They clearly said that they do not consist of Republicans only!

"Saboteurs" Not only borderline treasonous, but treacherous as well.
