Gem of the day

Breaking news: According to a wondrous New York Times poll, the 18 percent of Americans who identify themselves as Tea Party supporters "tend to be Republican, white, male, married and older than 45."

And it gets better from there: "They are more likely than the general public, and Republicans, to say that too much has been made of the problems facing black people."

Wait! The quotes from Tea Partiers are even better: “I just feel he’s getting away from what America is,” said Kathy Mayhugh, 67, a retired medical transcriber in Jacksonville. “He’s a socialist. And to tell you the truth, I think he’s a Muslim and trying to head us in that direction, I don’t care what he says. He’s been in office over a year and can’t find a church to go to. That doesn’t say much for him.”

Did a senior citizen named Kathy really just call Obama a loser?
