Fox poll: IRS more popular than tea party movement

Hahahaha. The teabagger network giveth more hilarity: a new Fox News poll shows that more Americans have a favorable view of the IRS (49%) than of the tea party movement (36%).

It's not just that people don't know what the tea party movement is. The net favorable rating (favorable minus unfavorable) of the IRS is +11% (49%/38%) compared to +2% for the tea party movement (36%/34%).

Best of all, this poll comes one week from April 15, the IRS's worst day of the year and the teabaggers best day of the year. Ask the same question six months from now, and you'll probably get even worse news for the teapartiers.

A couple of other things worth noting in this poll: Fox asked whether Americans felt the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, or the Tea Party movement more closely represented their values. The results: 40% said Democratic Party, compared to just 25% and 19% for the GOP and teabaggers, respectively.

4. And I bet I know why that is.

Because Americans are finally starting to smarten up to the fact that the tea party and the GOP are the same damn thing. People are finally starting to see through the "we're a grassroots independent movement" bullshit and see them for what they really are, which is the most ultra-conservative core of the GOP who are intolerant of anything less.

If it wasn't a bullshit movement, you'd think they'd support at least one blue dog.
