Business leaders are understandably upset at the Tea party for threatening their economic stability and continued growth.

Tea Partyers may try to blame the shutdown on Obama, but business leaders aren't listening. They've already made up their mind and the culprit is Ted Cruz and the Tea Party.

In Lewis Carroll's book Alice in Wonderland, there's a chapter entitled the Mad Tea Party. How prophetic was that? Pass the dormouse.

Had the Tea Party not pursued a course of action that was dangerous and was known to fail, they might have been more accepted into the Republican Party.



If Obamacare was such a train wreak as they claim, they should have just funded it and watched the law fail on it's own, which, apparently it is doing.



So, what did they get out of it? The ire of the mainstream Republicans, and many others, and that's about it. Now, instead of being able to change the Republican Party, they are being shown the door.

Once again the legacy of misunderstanding spawned by the Liberal Media persists. Big Biz loves the Tea Party, the Koch brothers are funding the Tea Party, they want economic chaos, only the very wealthy can survive an economic holocaust. Millions of properties thrown into foreclosure, millions out of work and desperate to work at any wage available, the opportuinity to snap up industrial equipment at fire sale auction prices, the wealthy make out like bandits when the economy goes spiraling into the toilet.

Those that do not know history are ignorant of the economic chaos that swept the NAZI Party and Adolf Hitler into power in Germany in 1932.

How long has the party been in existence? 5 years? 6?



They started as a Ron Paul splinter Group/grassroots movement, with a legitimate beef or two.........but were almost immediately taken over by Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck, who saw them getting increasing news coverage and decided to hitch their ratings wagons, to the Tea party.



They immediately turned the Group, into the "Birther/I hate Obama movement".......and most of the true True Partiers, got disgusted and left.



So I would say, if the party is about 6 years old now.........then they have overstayed their welcome by about 5 and a half years.

No but Democrats have! Their ineptitude is on display with the disastrous BFD O'Bamacare website.



The Republicans gave them an out before the Democrats threw a fit like petulant little children and shutdown the government! In their final offer before shutdown Republicans tried to just delay the individual mandate and the Democrats threw a fit and shutdown the government! Now 12 Democrats want to delay the individual mandate! The BFD O'Bamacare law is hanging around the necks of Democats like a cement necktie!



Next time read the bill!

This from the malodorous Flunky, obviously a flunky as he doesn't know there is no such word as partyer. When you can't spell a seven letter word correctly.......Perhaps we should dismantle the Department of Education.

I can think of many who have overstayed their welcome. Reid and Pelosi are the first two who come to mind.
