For a group that preaches the need for US to pay our debts and child support, the Tea Party's just a bunch of deadbeats:
The Venetian Casino Resort in Las Vegas has filed a lawsuit against Tennessee-based Tea Party Nation for allegedly failing to pay a more than $600,000 bill. The Las Vegas Review Journal reported that the hotel claims the tea party group owes money for a five-day convention it canceled at the hotel last summer. The Tea Party Nation reserved 1,637 room nights in the Palazzo hotel, according to court documents. The tea party group cancelled two weeks before the event. The group agreed to pay the hotel $579,148 in the event of a cancellation and $87,996 in interest has since been added to that amount.
The Venetian's lawyers claim the Tea Party Nation "are deadbeats, who have refused, and continue to refuse, to make payment," despite being contacted numerous times, LA Weekly reported.
Maybe it's a good thing if these deadbeats assume control of the political stage: the rest of the world will know the USA is a deadbeat nation and will cut US off. No more money to waste on another Iraq war or the military-industrial complex. God knows, Barack and the Dems don't have the balls to do it.
Bless their little tinfoil hats, the Tea Party may be deadbeats but not a bunch of mad Haters after all.
