Not quite getting the concept

Bootstrappy grassroots DC teabagger rally was taxpayer-funded.

Reprehensible loon Michele Bachmann solidified her place in the national spotlight in November when she publicly demonstrated just how fucking crazy she wa... ahem, sorry, when she gathered thousands of Tea Party activists in front of the U.S. Capitol for a "House Call on Washington," to stop the Democrats' health care bill. Months later, official expense reports show that the boisterous, “10,000-person” rally to rein in big government and stop runaway spending cost U.S. taxpayers nearly $14,000.

Taxed Enough Already, huh? Way to make your fucking point!
