Not exactly comedy

Rep. Bob Inglis — a Republican congressperson with "a 93 percent lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union" — will not be returning to Congress next year. That's because he lost his primary campaign to Teapproved candidate Trey Gowdy.

That is because he is a stinking liberal who thinks that maybe God is not speaking through the mouth of Glenn Beck.   (from IndecisionForever)

One of the few Republicans left who is not clinically insane just lost his job.  What we're left with is people who exhibit all the characteristics of a rat on a sinking ship.  People who have given up reason, replacing it with the base instinct for self-preservation.

Rep. Inglis describes a meeting with a number of tea party activists:

I sat down, and they said on the back of your Social Security card, there's a number. That number indicates the bank that bought you when you were born based on a projection of your life's earnings, and you are collateral. We are all collateral for the banks. I have this look like, "What the heck are you talking about?" I'm trying to hide that look and look clueless. I figured clueless was better than argumentative. So they said, "You don't know this?! You are a member of Congress, and you don't know this?!" And I said, "Please forgive me. I'm just ignorant of these things." And then of course, it turned into something about the Federal Reserve and the Bilderbergers and all that stuff. And now you have the feeling of anti-Semitism here coming in, mixing in. Wow.

This saddens me beyond words.  Read the full story here.
