State Of The Union To Get Tea Party Reponse

Posted by | January 20, 2015 20:00 | Filed under: Politics Top Stories


The Tea Party seems intent on keeping itself separate from Republicans.

This year, the honor of giving the official tea party response goes to Florida Congressman Curt Clawson. The Tea Party Express website praises Clawson as someone who “brings new ideas and solutions to Washington and the President’s failing policies.”

Clawson isn’t that well-known on the national stage, save for one really, really unfortunate moment. Last year, in the middle of a televised House hearing, Clawson actually mistook U.S. government officials for government officials from India and said, “Anything I can do to make the relationship with India better, I’m willing and enthusiastic about doing so.”

Clawson’s response won’t be the only unofficial one tonight. Rand Paul said he’ll issue a response on YouTube later tonight, and Florida Congressman Carlos Curbelo will deliver the Spanish-language version of Ernst’s response.

    Anything to keep themselves relevant, as they fad into obscurity.

    Iowa’s phony Joni Ernst response is also from the Koch Bros. Clown Party Express.

      Watch out for the flower in her lapel, don’t take her up on her invitation to take a whiff!

    Wonderful indeed!
    It’s guaranteed to be funnier than anything Jay Leno or Dennis Miller has said over the last five years.

      Dead people have been funnier than those two.

    How is there a group of elected officials who deem Joni Ernst to be too “main stream” to fully support their views? She is bat crap crazy for bucks sake.

    • burqa January 20th, 2015 at 21:28

      The spirals in her eyeballs don’t turn fast enough, and only turn in one direction – counterclockwise.
      She’s just not in the league of a Michele Bachmann, who has those spirals turning much faster, speeding up and slowing down. And if one watches closely, one will notice when the spirals reverse direction. It’s kinda cool when they go in different directions and then one of them changes so they both go the same way, then the other one starts going the other way….it’s enough to make me wish I was on acid…

        What are you talking about? We aren’t tripping? We are sober? This crap is really happening? Son of a bat, I gotta go, I have to find an island for me and my animals to escape to.

          Talking about that wacky Ernst woman….Bachmann could be out in the woods and stop a charging grizzly bear with those mesmerizing spirals in her eyeballs….

            Poor bear, he will be filled with gas for years after eating that nut.
