1. The disconnect for AZ's GOP loyal voters is amazing

I'd bet that almost all of them thought that voting for the (R) would mean a lower tax bill for themselves. It's really funny to read their posts in the local newspaper forums as they try to defend this.

3. We are home

4. Hey! They are creating jobs!

When you get arrested for stealing food to feed your family, they will put you to work making Tea Party license plates.
