The fact that we -- in the situation Maria is a testament is that we needed it any further testament.

To the sheer incompetence.

In -- and incomprehensible.

There we may see some rather primitive responses.

To this.

Incompetence in the in the ensuing months because it will break the back of the country -- -- mean how can these lawmakers not be concerned about their own record their own credibility don't you love.

Talking about the super committee they've they've put together to protect the country and themselves from.

From themselves.

What I am desperately desperately hoping is that the Tea Party does turn out in force.

In 2012 in this election we're starting to see -- being felt their informants but they're going to have to do much more and have to be much louder and much more forceful.

In order to make certain that we don't hear another brain.

Jackass in Washington.

And we need to make certain that if we -- more of this wealth redistribution nonsense that we calling for what it is.

It's a travesty it is an assault on our way of life and it would change fundamentally our government and the way in which we live our lives.
