The above video includes: Dylan Ratigan, Karl Denninger, and Cenk Uygur


From Huffington Post:

Karl Denninger, an original organizer of the Tea Party, is out with a livid blog post blasting current leaders of the conservative movement and the apparent hypocrisy in their views of the economic issues that originally catalyzed its creation.

According to Denninger, "Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, Bob Barr, and douchebag groups such as the Tea Party Patriots" are to blame for the bastardization of a movement that now seems focused on "Guns, gays, God," instead of the Tea Party's original mission: to castigate the federal government for supporting the "rampant theft" of taxpayer dollars that went toward "propping up FAILED private businesses."

2. The douchebag quote was from his blog quoted at HuffPo....

I'm not sure if he actually said it in the TV interview.

6. Dylan Ratigan: the Tea Party bullshit your buddy "created" is reaching the ultimate consequences...

of its logic.. which is what can only be expect to happens when one articulates a bullshit argument based on false premises.

In the end it is always the same: these assholes create an awful mess, and they think the solution is to blame someone else for the mess, then they throw a hissy fit when their "solution" does not work. Well, duuuuuh.


At least I am glad I didn't buy Ratigan's new "concern" con, his CNBC stripes are still showing.
