Ted Nugent famously said that he would be dead or in jail if Obama won re-election. Yet he is neither, and now will be attending the SOTU address as the guest of an impeachment-obsessed Texas Republican. Wait, I thought that Republicans are no longer supposed to be the party of Crazy!
WTF?

I thought Gather did. You're still here. : )
Good morning Larry.
Never was!

Nope Chuck,
You say that because you don't like the Republicans.....But in reality it is the Democrat party that has the crazies.
Go hug democrat poster boy Louis Farrakhan. That will make you feel better.
Unfortunately, the Republican party has handed over control to the tea party extremists. The tea party is a product of the Koch brothers, who began setting it up back in 2002 and then took advantage of the outpouring of bigotry and hatred of Obama being elected to formalize the tea party in 2009.
The sole goal of the tea party is to protect the rich - ensuring their tax breaks and loopholes continue to allow the rich to avoid paying taxes. Part of this is expanding the externalization of costs from the corporations to the taxpayers. Which is why time after time the tea party has held the American public hostage solely for the benefit of the few rich people.
Rich people like the billionaire Koch brothers who have been funding the climate denialism industry, funding the tea party, and funding Republican politicians.
You can read the most recent research proving the Koch/tea party/denialism connection here.

More on how the Koch's fund climate change denial.
More on why Marco Rubio was chosen to deny climate change and lie about pretty much everything after the SOTU.
Bottom line: The Republican party itself isn't crazy; it has just given itself over completely to the plutocrats and reality-deniers. If the former-GOP wants to become the once-again-GOP, then any honest members left in the GOP have to stand up for honesty, integrity, and responsibility. So far, they have chosen to devolve into the other direction.
I swear, these nutjobs have such an inflated sense of their own importance. Noboby wants them dead or in jail. They need to get over themselves.
