    Fitting that it is Bachmann, the resident alpha-dog of the wingnut arm of the GOP.

    so I assume that you included "one" because you think it has something to do with Obama, do you have a problem with this caucus, do you have a problem with me not starting a thread about it, what's your point

    He didn't forget it. The people at Fox News who wrote the story did, which isn't surprising. If you mention those people around a segment of the Fox News audience, it causes them to become agitated, and they make a very public fool of themselves.

    Members of the Republican Internet Militia then have to start countless threads clogging up BBS's everywhere with claims that Republicans aren't really racist, but instead are just victims of a massive plot by the liberal (read, not ideologically subservient to the Republican Party) media to repeat their words verbatim "out of context".

    just that it was odd to lump the tea party caucus in w/ the bourbon caucus, rather than some of the more traditional, established caucuses. the CBC is probably the best known of those.

    You know he was directly responding to you. He took a strategic jab at you knowing he can get away with it. Don't apologize to him dood.

    "any opportunity to encourage focus on common sense Republican values" on Capitol Hill"

    Can anyone define those and give examples from the eight years of Republican leadership?
