Tea Party Nation Gets It

I'm man crushin' on Tea Party Nation's Judson Phillips. Phillips isn't the run of the mill, cookies and no punch tea partyist. Phillips cares about more than big government, or being t.axed e.nough a.lready. Phillips isn't afraid to call out Boehner, or Obama. Boehner for being too meek and too slow on spending cuts, Obama for being a liar and a usurper.

I'm changing the brand of tea I'm sipping to "Tea Party Nation-- the red white and blue patriot's brew that's true."

Tea Party Group Calls Out John Boehner
by Peter Doocy
March 03, 2011

"Charlie Sheen is now making more sense than John Boehner." At least that's what Tea Party Nation founder Judson Phillips says, and he doesn't mean it as a compliment.

The Tea Party Nation called out Speaker Boehner because the federal budget the House passed cut $61 billion, instead of the $100 billion they wanted. Their anger was amplified when Boehner hailed that budget's passage through the House as a success.

"If this is the best John Boehner can do and John Boehner is the only hope we have right now, then we are sunk," Phillips writes. "By the time we can replace Obama as president, in 2013, we will be trillions of dollars of more into debt and may hit the point of economic collapse."

This group is so discouraged with the Speaker of the House, they think someone else would be better suited for his job. So, defeating Boehner in the 2012 Ohio primary is now a priority for the Tea Party Nation. "The Tea Party movement should find a candidate to run against John Boehner in 2012 and should set as a goal, to defeat in a primary, the sitting Speaker of the House of Representatives," Phillips writes in a piece called "The honeymoon is over: It is time to primary John Boehner," posted on the Tea Party Nation Forum.

After calling for a Republican challenger, and listing his group's grievances with the Speaker, Phillips concludes his letter with a simple but direct insult for Boehner. "You look like a fool."
