This right here is a big doozy when it comes to the hypocrisy of Tea Party politicians:
Tea Party aligned Georgia Rep. Tom Graves (R), who castigates Washington for fiscal irresponsibility, reached an out of court settlement Wednesday after he was sued for defaulting on a $2.2 million loan — which his attorney argued is the bank’s fault for lending him the money in the first place.
Graves and his business partner Chip Rogers — who is the state Senate’s Republican majority leader — took out a $2.2 million loan from the Bartow County Bank in 2007 to buy and renovate a local motel. The project soon went belly-up.
If this was you or me, Tom Graves would be lecturing us about personal responsibility, but that doesn’t apply to him or the Tea Party people. That is evident by all their actions. They can take government programs like farm subsidies, Medicaid or anything else, but it’s because “they need it”, yet if you lose your job and need government help to get your child healthcare, well then you are a failure trying to live off the government.
I’m sorry, but it’s total bullshit and that’s a big reason why Americans are becoming increasingly fed up with the this party of frauds. It’s beyond time to declare the Tea Party a cult of hypocrisy and brush them aside. Hopefully our media will listen now.
