What? No Secret Service detail?

Security for Jindal's travels costs La. taxpayers

Was this topic addressed by any of the "tax activists" at yesterday's teabagging party in Metairie?

Looking back on it

Teabagging day was even lamer than previously imagined.

Honestly, though, I have a mixed reaction to these (heavily funded and nationally promoted) spontaneous outbursts of right wing nuttery. On the one hand, teabagging parties are a treasure trove of unintentional humor and quaint ironies.

On the other hand, they're a frightening gauge on the degree to which delusional a-historical hate thought gets treated as a substantial portion of the national political debate.

They're almost exactly like a NOLA.com comments thread... if it was able to eat into a few minutes of John Gibson's vacation time.
