Republicans v. Tea Party

Read this point by point column by Dana Milbank listing how quickly the Tea Party supported Republican candidates are repudiating the promises they ran on. So much for throwing the rascals out. The Republicans have always been the hidden proponents of pork and deficits. Tea Party Patriots were either naive or stupid to believe that the party wasn't corrupt from the inside. Touch the tar baby and be immediately absorbed. The Republicans are the evil Borg of politics.
