The Tea Party has replaced the Republican Party.

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and her husband Marcus Bachmann recite the Pledge of Alligence, prior to her announcing her candidacy for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination at the historic Snowden House June 27, 2011, Waterloo, Iowa.

Representative Bachmann's popularity in Iowa in the face of blatant rasicm is a sad statement for this country.  It is difficult to believe racism to the extent 'The Family Leader" considers it important is even tolerated at all anymore.  But, for as outrageous as all that is, it doesn't stop there.  Homophobia is still rampant in the face of changes of military standards and enactment of gay marriage in places like New York State.  It was achieved in New York State through bipartisan efforts. 
I was hoping the GOP would see the wisdom in searching for a candidate such as John Huntsman over any extremist candidate as the future of the Republican Party.  I guess not.

The very old fringe are finding joy in their renaissance and believe they are the future rather than the past.
The Speaker of the US House and his side kick, Chester Cantor are not at all interested in the country so much as being talking heads to their extremist and wealthy fringe.  I suppose Democrats are suppose to be alarmed and upset given the extremist element supposedly on the President.  Not.  I think Democrats have become numb with the regular assualt of the Right Wing Idiots.  It is like, "What else is new?"

This was an actual reply to a news article by ABC News about the homophobic Bachmann clinic.

Ahhhhh yes, the investigation (click here) of a Conservative Republican by a left wing news organization. No such investigation of Barrack Hussein Obama. We still have no proof he ever went to college. No records. No transcripts. Not one single person who noticed a black man named Barry Soetoro in their class and law school. No friends from any college or university has ever stepped forward....

Really?
