The current tea-baggers remind me of an episode from The Simpsons. |

Abe Simpson (he's Homer's dad for those who don't know) and Jasper are walking down the streets of Springfield. A homeless man asks if they have any money and Grandpa Simpson responds, "Yes! And you ain't getting it. Everybody wants something for nothing."
Then, after brushing off the homeless man, the two continue on toward the Social Security building. Upon entering, you hear Grandpa Simpson screaming, "I'm old, gimme gimme gimme!"
Who knew the tea-baggers got their inspiration from Grandpa Simpson?
