Well, I know you know what happened last night!
Eric Cantor lost his seat to a Tea Partier.
Yes, David Brat was backed and financed by Tea Partiers, claiming that Eric was to liberal (really?). Eric spent over 5M for his campaign, while David barely had over 200K in his chest. Eric's campaign folks didn't think it was a problem.
However, when Eric's numbers were falling, they should've took note. But no, they kept thinking Eric had it in the bag. Then, the truth set in.
After the numbers came in, it was clear that Eric lost. This was a huge upset to the GOP. The very group the loved and hated gained ground and knocked one of the most powerful members in the GOP. Eric had to be embarrassed, he had to.
Here's the main story
Here is his concession speech

Report: IRS targeted Progressives as well
Well, know we know that the Tea Party wasn't the only group being watched.
Progressive groups were also on the look out. Words like ‘‘Israel,’’ ‘'Progressive’’ and ‘‘Occupy," were also on the list. So this puts a big ass hole in the claims that only the Tea Party folks were the main target.
If you like, please read Danny Werfel, the principal deputy commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, report and see for yourself

Foolishness Alert: Citizens from 15 States have filed petitions to Secede from America
Over the weekend, folks from 15 States have asked for a peaceful withdrawal from the United States in order to start their own government.
These states are Louisiana, Texas, Montana, North Dakota, Indiana, Mississippi, Kentucky, North Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, New Jersey, Colorado, Oregon and New York.
They filed the petitions a few days after the 2012 presidential election.
Check it out:
The government allows one month from the day the petition is submitted to obtain 25,000 signatures in order for the Obama administration to consider the request.
The Texas petition reads as follows:
The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government’s neglect to reform domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, etc. Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it’s citizens’ standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government.
As of 12:46 am, Sunday, signatures obtained by Louisiana, 7,358; Texas, 3,771; Florida, 636; Georgia, 475; Alabama, 834; North Carolina, 792; Kentucky, 467; Mississippi, 475; Indiana, 449; North Dakota, 162; Montana, 440; Colorado, 324; Oregon, 328; New Jersey, 301 and New York, 169. Many more States are expected to follow.Are people that gottdamn dumb? I can't believe this mess!

In Maryland: Homophobic Lawmaker injures children in a Drunken Boat ride
Interesting how life works. A Tea Party Republican, Don H. Dwyer has made a name for himself by pushing homophobic initiatives in Maryland. He has said gays are a threat to kids and gay marriage would lead to homosexuality being taught in schools.
Don also tried to ban gay marriage and impeach any public official who showed any support for gay marriage.
Since he seeks to protect the children from the horrid gays, he actually put some in great danger. This weekend, he injured 5 children while driving drunk on a boat.
GayStarNews report:
Maryland delegate Don H. Dwyer Jr was drinking with another man on his boat on the Magothy River in Pasadena around 7pm when his boat struck a smaller vessel with five children on board.Folks are calling on Don to resign.
Four of the children were injured with one, a five year old girl, taken by helicopter to Baltimore’s Johns Hopkins Children’s Center.
Two adults on the boat were unharmed.
The smash was so severe that Dwyer’s boat sunk in the river.
Dwyer later admitted to having a blood alcohol level of 0.2 – twice the legal limit.
‘It is true that I was drinking while operating my boat,’ Dwyer told a press conference outside the Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore where he is being treated.
‘No one, no one, should be drinking and operating a motor vehicle or powerboat.’
‘I deeply regret my actions, and I ask for forgiveness from the public. My heart and prayers go out to the family that was involved in the accident, and I pray for them to have a speedy recovery.’

Rep. Todd Akin: 'legitimate rape' can stop a pregnancy
"If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. But let's assume that maybe that didn't work or something, I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be of the rapist, and not attacking the child."Mess!

Protesters interrupt Marco Rubio's Speech at the Hispanic Leadership Network Conference
DREAMers (folks who support the Dream Act) interrupted Rubio's speech at the Hispanic Leadership Network yesterday.
Naked Politics reports
In the lead-up to Rubio's speech, critics from a group called Presente Action had a propeller plane circling the Doral Golf Resort & Spa with a banner reading, Hey Marco: No Somos Rubios, which translates to "We aren't Rubios." It's a play on words on the word rubio, which in Spanish means blond or fair. The group is attacking Rubio largely over immigration, protesting that the senator doesn't support the pro-immigrant DREAM Act.Rubio's is rumored to be on the VP short list. However, he is not completely loved by the Latino community.
After saying a few words in Spanish, Rubio, who was greeted by a standing ovation, said he got a text message froma friend telling him about the airplane banner. "Marco, we're not blond," he said, translating the banner. "Which, by coincidence, neither am I -- although if I'm in the Senate for another year, I may start being a little bit more gray."
The crowd laughed. Then Rubio immediately went into the issue of immigration -- and a couple of suit-clad protesters stood up, raised signs that said "Marco Rubio -- Latino or Tea-Partino" and asked Rubio why he isn't helping them. "You're an immigrant yourself!" they yelled.
Rubio appeared unfazed. Security approached the protesters while Rubio said, "I ask that you guys let them stay, because I think that they're going to be interested in what I'm going to say." Rubio got a standing ovation. "I don't want them to leave," he repeated. "I want them to stay."
"Let them stay!" chanted the crowd.
But the protesters were escorted out.

Tennessee Tea Parties want to Remove Slavery from Textbooks
Lord, the tea party is a hot ass mess. The other day, these fools presented their demands to Tennessee lawmakers. Among those demands was the ability to change history and remove slavery from the textbooks.
The material calls for lawmakers to amend state laws governing school curriculums, and for textbook selection criteria to say that “No portrayal of minority experience in the history which actually occurred shall obscure the experience or contributions of the Founding Fathers, or the majority of citizens, including those who reached positions of leadership.”Made-up criticism? Are these people crazy or what? Slavery was real, especially in the Tennessee area. They have to high or daft to think they can erase slavery from the history books.
Fayette County attorney Hal Rounds, the group’s lead spokesman during the news conference, said the group wants to address “an awful lot of made-up criticism about, for instance, the founders intruding on the Indians or having slaves or being hypocrites in one way or another.

Kansas Tea Party calls ‘Half Black, Half White’ Obama A Skunk
Hoping to say relevant, the tea party continues their acts of foolishness. This time it's coming from Kansas:
Patriot Freedom Alliance, a tea party group in Hutchinson, Kansas, made a statement on its website recently, depicting Obama as a skunk.This is way out of line, but I guess Herman Cain will take back his 'Tea Party is Not Racist' statement now.
“It is half black, half white, and almost everything it does, stinks,” the site reads, according to a screen grab posted by The Hutchinson News. The skunk depiction has been replaced with an abridged biography of Newt Gingrich.
The group’s webmaster, Thomas Hymer, told the The Hutchinson News the statement was just political satire, saying Sarah Palin has been subjected to worse attacks.
