GOP’s Dick Lugar Knocks Tea Party
By Paul Bedard

Posted: January 26, 2011

Dumping on the Tea Party isn’t just a Democratic hobby, though some take it to an art form, as when former Democratic Party boss Howard Dean recently called the movement “the last gasp of the generation that has trouble with diversity.” Republicans do it too, especially those facing a Tea Party challenge. snip

Lugar says most just want to be heard, but really can’t focus on what’s bugging them. “We want this or that stopped or there is spending, big government—these are all, we would say, sort of large cliché titles, but they are not able to articulate all the specifics,” he says.

4. That's rich coming from a GOPer, a member of the original party
of cliche's and forumlaic thinking. The party that spent the last decade standing still and throwing a grand old hissyfit.

5. Lugar's one of the few sane Republicans.
Especially on nuclear proliferation.

6. Lugar means "place" in Spanish. So Dick Lugar telling tea baggers...
Well this is just too phallic.

9. I do not often agree with Lugar but I respect him as one of the few
old-time repugs left.
