MSNBC host Martin Bashir interviewed Stanton Peele, a psychologist and an "expert on addiction," this afternoon. Bashir urged Peele to psychologically evaluate supporters of the Tea Party. "It reminds us of addiction because addicts are seeking something that they can't have," Peele said. "They want a state of happiness or nirvana that can't be achieved except through an artificial substance and reminds us of the Norway situation, when people are thwarted at obtaining something they can't, have they often strike out and Norway is one kind of example to one kind of reaction to that kind of a frustration."
Bashir later asked: "So you're saying that they are delusional about the past and adamant about the future?"
"They are adamant about achieving something that's unachievable, which reminds us of a couple of things. It reminds us of delusion and psychosis," Peele responded.
The Teabaggers have been very successful in crashing the US Stock Market with their tactics, making sure everyone with an IRA or a 401k is a bit poorer today.
Thanks for nothing, baggers. I hope you like eating dog food.

LMAO!
Oh, geez - Only in the alcohol-soaked, drug-addled delusion minds of you leftist-0bamanoids is the Tea Party to blame for the gazillion dollar deficit and printing press ordered to run 24/7
WTF are you smoking, Skip? Good stuff, eh? The TP is trying like hell to S-T-O-P fedgov spending, but you socialists insist that EVERYTHING be FREE. What's THAT about, Homes??

It's going to be interesting to see if the American voters will buy the bullshit that Brian SS and skippy are trying to sell.
Those two hacks seem to have a real hard-on for the tea party, it seems. For the life of me, I can't understand why. Does the tea-party threaten their gov't check?
I'll repeat an analogy I used earlier - We have a 12 alarm fire. The house is in imminent danger of burning to the ground.
Enter Obama and his "team". Their solution? Pour more gasoline on the fire.
After two years of that, you get the tea - party. Their solution? Piss on the fire.
Even though the house is going to burn down in the end, at least the tea-party's solution seems to make more sense - futile though it be.

Yep.
There is a concerted, collusive effort by the Statist/Leftist media and their zombies/drones to scapegoat the Tea Party for the gazillion dollar deficit perpetrated by this irresponsible fedgov Leviathan.
In THIS country, the asylum has been taken over by the patients.

The TP threatens their goob-statist controlled FREE STUFF TRAIN and wet dream of a Commie/fascist globalist Amerika.

Yep. Excellent analogy.

The Tea Party at LEAST recognizes and demands addressing the spending-money-we-don't-have problem. Metaphoric speaking, the "pissing on the fire" is apropos, although, we do need to drink a LOT more beer if we're going to be effective ;-)
