We can be so reactionary sometimes. Talk about the tail wagging the dog.
Teabags and secession?!? Do we need to bite on every thing the right wing throws up.
Every little fit the babies throw gets a deafening response, which is exactly what the forces behind the actions want. They want us looking at the crazy. I don't donate to liberal campaigns and vote for this. I didn't slap a black man's name on the back of my Ford in redneck country for this. If I wanted to be inundated with the distracting crazy, I'd sign up at Redstate. I'd watch all of the right wing channels I blacked out on cable.
Please ignore the crazy, or at least, don't feed unto it undo importance and relevance. Identify it, tag it, and bag it.
Perhaps, instead of having someone as rational and reputable as Tom DeLay, dominate a news show, a discussion might be had about the problems inherent with 50 states claiming sovereignty. 50 states setting tariffs. 50 states setting import/export laws. How 80's European that would be.
