They Won't Get Fooled Again, Until They Get Fooled The Next Time

One of the endearing as well as appalling qualities of that odd soup of neocons and Tea Partiers is their obsession on being led, on finding just that perfect combination of pureness of doctrine and cult-worthy personality that they will follow someone until disillusionment and then another until disillusionment, over and over and over, ad nauseam.

It is a never ending source of political sardonic amusement for me. Kind of makes up for the fact that the country's hurting over what damage these morans are doing.

Well, Sarah made her appearance and the National Tea Party Convention, the biggest gathering of 600 people that ever shook the world, and the people who started the ball rolling are resentful. Why?

A prominent Tea Party leader from Texas is warning that the movement "is becoming nothing more than a wholly owned subsidiary of the Republican Party," and slamming Sarah Palin as representing "a growing insider's attack to the heart of the Tea Party."

Dale Robertson, the founder of TeaParty.org, is just the latest Tea Partier to express concern that the movement is being hijacked by the GOP.

Of course, Dale's just the latest Tea Partier who's waking up to the fact that they're nothing but a tool kit to the GOPpers who are either stepping on them on their attempted way back to power or just trying to make a bundle off their credulity.

Expect this to continue until they all get disillusioned about Sarah, and the search for The Next Reagan™ begins anew once again.

This won't happen until they really realize that they've been worked:

Robertson's animus toward the GOP also appears to have developed only recently. Last month, he complained to a reporter that he had been trying to contact the RNC to discuss working together, but hadn't received a call back.

That's because Dale doesn't understand that he's the useful idiot here – and his expiry date has passed.

It's as though they've awoken a sleeping giant … a very, very, stupid and gullible giant.
