The Tea Part Billion dollar earmark story
That would be Tea "Party" but at any rate, let me explain to you how this one is going to happen.
1. The liberals are going to jump up and down, giddy that the liberal media has given them a talking point with which to attack the Tea Party - claiming that the Tea Party requested 1 billion dollars in earmarks and will use this as proof of how hypocritical they think the Tea Party is.
2. I will point out that the Republicans who requested the earmarks, did so before they joined the Tea Party and that part of their joining the Tea Party caucus meant that they have now committed themselves to the earmark ban. I will point to this as proof that the Tea Party has brought an improvement to Washington, getting folks who requested 1 Billion dollars of earmark bans in the past to give up that method of working in Washington and to get on board with the philosophy of ending earmarks.
3. The liberals will scream and yell about how I am spinning the truth of this story and got my position from Fox News. They will then use the term Faux News to show just how clever they are.
4. They will vote each other's posts up at least 3 times.
5. As they begin losing this debate, they will resort to personal attacks in an attempt to get this thread moved off the political forum and into the political group.
6. 82 years from now, they will be using the fake "Tea Party Earmark" story to justify an earmark for ahomoerotic, incestuous "art" exhibition in the Smithsonian Institute during Christmas.
Sound about right?
