Friday cartoons: Tea Party, Me Party

The government shutdown may be over, but I'm still stinging from it.  Seeing the Tea Party members of the US Congress gloat about having shutdown the government was pretty ugly.  Who knew they would interpret their mission of less government as no government?  Thing is, their extreme tactics are taking down the Republicans (who don't need any help alienating us ordinary folk) as well.

Here are some ideas about the Tea Party in the form of cartoons for you to consider.
