Right winger Richard Armey has started a 3rd political party

It is called the TEA PARTY. The craziness of the right wing just keeps escalating. The latest Paul Krugman column at http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/09/opinion/09krugman.html?em tells it just like it is. This is a must-read. Its title is PARANOIA STRIKES DEEP.

EXCERPT: ...the G.O.P. has been taken over by the people it used to exploit. Real power in the party rests, instead, with the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin (who at this point is more a media figure than a conventional politician). Because these people aren’t interested in actually governing, they feed the base’s frenzy instead of trying to curb or channel it. So all the old restraints are gone. The point is that the takeover of the Republican Party by the irrational right is no laughing matter. Something unprecedented is happening here — and it’s very bad for America. (I'll second THAT!)
