Reasons I'm voting tea party
I'd put this in the humor section but I think it fits easily here too. Sigh.

An excellent reflection of the views held by the people who desperately want to "Take Back Their Nation"
And probably will in the November elections.
For the moment they have my blessings. When they have their nation back and fail miserably to solve any of the problems, from immigration to the economy, from the faltering job market to the national budget and deficit, they will be greeted by my curses and once again in fairly short order will completely lose whatever respect the American people had for Teabagging Republican Morans.
I wait patiently for November's election results.

It doesn't make any difference. We'll replace one set of clowns with another. Too bad. So Sad.

It makes me wonder when most Americans will realize that one party is as bad as the other. How much longer can it be until voter turnout is zero because we all realize that there are no good choices to vote for, so why even bother?

The fewer people who vote the better. Those who matter and those whose support for those who matter is unwavering will always vote.

There is no valid reason to vote an idiot into office.

And hence my difficulties with the Republican Party since the Bush administration made known its propensity for idiocy.
Obama is not an Idiot, he may be a failure for various other reasons but I honestly don't believe he's an idiot.
I will grant that the Democrats ran a fool against an idiot in 2004 and gave the race away, The Republicans with their current, somewhat radical, front runners are setting the stage to do the same thing to themselves in 2012. Obama will probably not be a one term President.

"A logically valid argument is one where the conclusion follows from the premises."

I'm sure there is a valid argument to be made, per a certain set of premises. However, I will agree that there are few good reasons.
