  "Right on, Matt. Absolutely. It not just the independent grassroots tea party, it is the fanatics, the democrats, the fireworks manufacturers, the left-wing conspiracists, the chocolate lovers, the wascally wabbits, the licorice eaters, the men without hats, the men with beards, the industrial complex, the wealthy manicurists..."

They start things and never go anywhere with them, leaving the nation to tag along behind, planting apple seeds while hoping pear trees will bloom, or pine trees, that we could use for wood to build homes, creating jobs for those backbone-of-America construction workers, ensuring they have medical insurance they can afford and eliminating the need for a government plan at all, unless of course, the drug addicts and liberals take over and lead us down a path of unrighteousness and right into hell..."
