(Summoning up my best Nelson Muntz impression from
The Simpsons)
HA-HA!
The for-profit, astro-turfiest wing of the tea party, The Tea Party
Express Nation is in trouble. The owners of The Venetian and Palazzo are suing them for
big bucks. You might remember that the wind was already going out of the tea bagger balloon last year. They planned this big event in Las Vegas, and then postponed it. . .and then canceled it all together. But it would seem that they made a deal with
arch-conservative Sheldon Adelson's properties, and they welched. It's really so
funny sad.

Las Vegas resort sues tea party group over hotel bill
(Excerpt consists of only a headline because the LVRJ
is particularly litigious. Sorry.)

Thanks to

Your post is incorrect. The article refereneced is about Tea Party Nation, which has no affiliated with the Tea Party Express, which is a federal political action committee. Tea Party Nation is a for-profit organization.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sal, I fixed it. Sorry about that, but it can be hard separating those different tea party factions in my brain. I'd wager most people don't know the difference. Thanks for setting me straight.
