No one seems to have the definitive list of the extremists willing to be identified as members of Bachmann's crazy caucus. Some, like Houston whack-job John Culberson, seem to be in and out several times a day. As of tonight we've been able to confirm these lunatic fringe members of the Republican Party as falling in behind Bachmann: B.P.'s favorite congressman Joe Barton (TX), half a dozen other nutcase Texas racists-- Lamar Smith, John Carter, Michael Burgess, John Culberson, Louie Gohmert, Pete Sessions-- only one of the half dozen active Republican closet queens-- Trent Franks (AZ)-- would-be Michigan governor Pete Hoekstra, Gary Miller (CA), Rob Bishop (UT), Walter Jones (NC), Todd Akin (MO), Doug Lamborn (CO), Dan Burton (IN), Cynthia Lummis (WY), Roscoe Bartlett (MD), Gus Bilirakis (FL), Cliff Stearns (FL), 3 of the craziest of the Georgia loons (Broun, Gingrey and Price), Steve King (IA), Joe "You Lie" Wilson (SC), John Fleming (LA), both Kansas House members running for the Senate (Tiahrt and Moran), and one member of the Republican leadership: Mike Pence (IN). Of these Tea Bag Caucus members 5 voted for Bush's no-strings-attached Wall Street bailout: Pete Sessions (TX), Lamar Smith (TX), Joe Wilson (SC), Pete Hoekstra (MI), and Gary Miller (CA), all of whom take big bucks-- thinly veiled bribes-- from Wall Street CEOs and lobbyists.
