Rep.-Elect Frank Guinta (R-Tea Party)

by: William Tucker

Sun Nov 14, 2010 at 19:35:10 PM EST


Frank Guinta will be hanging out with Tea Partiers Sen. Jim DeMint, Rep. Michelle Bachman and Rep. Mike Pence tomorrow. He's joining the three as featured speaker at the Americans for Prosperity "November Speaks" rally in Washington.

The rally is an attempt to block Democrats' policy priorities in the upcoming lame-duck session, including a childhood nutrition bill, food safety legislation and preventing a 23% cut in Medicare payments to physicians.

Americans for Prosperity (AFP) is the right-wing political advocacy group funded by infamous oil billionaire David Koch of Koch Industries. AFP spent over $1.3 million during the midterm elections to elect Tea Party candidates including more than $74,000 attacking Rep. Carol Shea-Porter.

$74 thousand is a pittance. (0.00 / 0)
Sending the third string to Washington for the second half of Obama's game may well turn out to have been an act of charity.  $74 thousand doesn't buy much prosperity.  Hardly enough to get people to ask whose prosperity is being advanced and who's going to be deprived to advance it.  

"hard choices" always involve depriving someone else.  They're like that "discipline" handed out by dead-beat dads that "hurts" them more than it does the kids.

So Frank's going to be nibbling on tea cakes while the children of New Hampshire are put on a bread and water diet.
