Advice for the Teapukes Who Are Unhappy Serving in Congress:

Resign your seats today in protest. Make a statement. Make a speech. Tell the world that you're resigning because people didn't listen to your wisdom and vote the way you thought they should.

Resign now, while people's minds are still on the news. Resign, and swear to "The American People" that you'll never darken the halls of Congress again.

That'll show them, damnit. Do it today! Don't wait until tomorrow!

"Why don't they resign en masse, and put the rest of us out of their misery," said she, over breakfast. I raised an eyebrow at her, and she said, "Hey, at 87, I get to say those things!"

I just wish they'd take that advice and send that message to "The American People." I'm sure there would be cheers for them.

4. No, no, no. They need to caucus, leave the GOP, and declare the formation of a real 'Tea Party.'

Stop being the liberal GOP's lapdogs! TEA PARTY PARTY NOW!
