Calling them "the Party of Hoover" is too great a compliment. Herbert Hoover, for all of his faults and his ensnarement in a failed ideology, cared about people.
It's the Party of Clowns, now.
UPDATE: Best e-mailed comment:
If I were running things, I'd make sure that Wilson's district only got Federal money for the construction of nuclear waste reprocessing plants, rubber plants, slaughterhouses and oil refineries.By the way, how does a guy whose given names are "Addison Graves" get to run around saying "call me `Joe'"?
UPDATE II: The Obama Administration should not be negotiating with the Republicans. They should first bring out the rubber hoses and beat their own caucus into submission. Then cram it right down the throats of the GOP.

I'll leave the same comment I just made on another blog: Un. Fucking. Believable. Here’s to hoping this is his last term.
The Pennywise clowns, no less.
Maybe 'Party of Hoover' as in the vacuum cleaner (i.e.; they suck)?
Hey, it's all about Wilson getting re-elected. This gets him publicity, entry into the wingnut welfare sweepstakes, appearances on Faux News, and the appreciation of his constituency of inbred cracker Christianist pointy-hood-wearers who just love the fact that he just put an uppity nigra "in his place". Sure, it further paints the Republican Party as the party of loons, cretins, racists, and Christianist dolts, but hey, that's not Joe Wilson's problem, his problem is getting his slimy redneck butt re-elected in 2010... and he just helped his chances enormously, given the makeup of his district.
