So, today the Grand Wingnut Senator of South Carolina proclaimed that the astroturf Teatards are a spiritual movement. Jim DeMint is channelling a deep Confederate meme that their view of the world is the only view blessed by God. Sure, it is an idea straight from the crazy store that can not withstand a fact-check, but leaving reality behind for your fantasy world is what the Republican Confederate Party celebration of Confederate History Month is all about.
Ooo boy. Never mind about reaching ‘peak wingnut’, I’m wondering if we’ll ever reach ‘peak confederate’ (of course they could be the same thing). And yet, behind DeMint and the highly spun Teatards is the deeply disturbed base of the Republican Confederate Party.
