This post involves, but is not about the so-called Tea Party protests this past weekend in Washington, D.C. The aim of this forum is not to comment on politics, but general idiocracy. So, while there might be much to say about these events, we will instead focus on the reaction of one individual who demonstrates hypocrisy at best and sheer stupidity at worst. Onto this stage walks Texas Congressman Kevin Brady.
You see, Representative Brady was involved in the protests. Fine. No gripes there. But during his participation, he hears complaints from many of the massive throng of teabaggers that the Washington Metropolitan Area Transportation Authority's Metrorail system was not completely sufficient for their needs. Now, as a frequent rider of the system and also a particularly interested observer of passenger rail, I can sympathize with that sentiment, especially on weekends.
However, these particular protests were intended to criticize government spending. Apparently, Mr. Brady and his bunch have no problem utilizing a massive government-provided service to get them to their gathering rather inexpensively. Moreover, while the good Congressman had the mental capacity to criticize Metro for providing less-than-stellar service, he apparently forgot his vote against funding to support the very system he identified as lacking in resources. This whole scenario is analyzed quite succinctly here.
So, we say to the people of Texas' Montgomery, Walker, Polk, San Jacinto, Tyler, Jasper, Newton, Hardin, and Orange counties as well as portions of Trinity and Liberty counties, you have elected yourself a Goddamn Idiot.

Way to go, cheesehead. Humility is Daryl Talley and Phil Hansen. Arrogance is Billy Joe Hobert. You have chosen the company of the latter. I guess its too much to ask for you to put aside your dreams of runback glory and take a knee for the touchback with a minute left and a lead to protect. Instead, you ruin an outstanding effort by Fred Jackson, a confidence-building performance by Captain Checkdown, the extremely young offensive line's baptism-by-fire outing and a solid showing by the run defense.
Please, go away and never be heard from again. Like this guy.
