Completely on point. The Tea Party has successfully wrested the levers of power away from the major parties by going after the thing they fear the most—guaranteed re-election.
Kreole- let me see that captain run a modern aircraft carrier, alone! That IS part of the problem today, ALL the crew must pull together to make the massive ship of state run properly, and even a few jerkoffs on the starboard side not doing their job, can sink the whole thing.
The bush tax cuts make up a yearly 333 billion dollar unfunded cost. plus the 3 off book wars another 4 or 5 hundred billion. Our defense makes up 63% of the yearly 1.415 trillion budget, thats 895 billion. cut it by 2/3’s and we’re still number one, still the biggest, and we give up being in alot of countries we dont need to be. Then it would only be 20% of the yearly budget. Thats a savings of 1.728 trillion a year a nice chunk of which wasnt even funded. Raise some revenues and OMFG, things look a lot better. it wont happen, because money talks so lobbyists can walk and all these elected idiots play for that same team.
Just the opposite! We have a clueless “captain Obama” at the helm who keeps trying to steer the ship of state directly into a giant iceburg! While the Tea Party and its conservative allies are attempting to stop him before he completely destroys the ship of state.
Wow @44 Clown. And here I thought the teabaggers were a bunch of drunkards who were looking to destroy the gubbermint under governor milf’s instruction.

You should have the American public blindfolded in the middle…we do not want to see what is coming anyway….this should increase jobs…right?

The guy with the flag is labeled Tea Party since clearly they’re in charge. Sure ain’t Barack “Don’t call my bluff” Obama.

good ’toon here. if you count around the circle, most of the dems (as well as the gops) are shooting their own folks. good visualization.

Mr. T may need to watch his own behind. If the guys in front of the sign are off in their aim, he’ll take some lead too.
