If it weren’t for the tea party, Congress would work well, Hollywood actor Sean Penn said during a recent appearance on CNN with host Piers Morgan. And he also said tea partyers should be forcibly committed for mental health treatment.

Really, the tea party is to blame for nearly all of the issues facing Congress, he said, as Politico reported.

“I think they have — there’s a mental health problem in Congress,” Mr. Penn said. “This would be solved by committing them by executive order, I think. Because these are our American brothers and sisters, we shouldn’t be criticizing them, attacking them. … This is a cry for help.

Mr. Morgan encouraged Mr. Penn to continue: “You literally commit what, people like Ted Cruz?”

And Mr. Penn’s reply, as Politico reported: “He is my American brother. I think we should take care of him, he is in trouble.”(continued)

This piece of Castro loving crap worships dictatorships.

I say we force him to live under one to see how he really likes it.

We can let him go live in a regime run by someone like Pol Pot.

God is letting them destroy themselves by the devil’s slow madness. Sometimes the way up (God not willing any should perish) has to be via the bottom, hitting rock bottom first. Watch, tremble, and try not to get sucked down to their level. God will win.

Almost?!? I dream of the day when they stand there, smug and happy, waving good bye to us as we trudge off to the new United States of Texas

Be very careful, we don't lose Texas first. The (D) push for immigration amnesty is aiming directly at Texas.

Every Leftist victory brings real Americans (the unhyphenated ones) closer to getting off the couch and doing something. Comfortable people don’t start rebellions.
