Really? "A handful"? Which ones? Name them. You can't, it doesn't exist.

There were three "deal", and the Tea Party nixed them all. Only a few TP crossed over and voted for the ones that passed. Not the Dems. And the Dems agreed, although they didn't want to, to entitlement reforms. The Dems compromised, the old politician GOP compromised, the Tea Party is a bunch of idiotic, financial fools hell bent upon destroying this country to demagogue their ridiculous ideals.

Sorry - this is a completely false argument. Blaming the Dems for the Tea Party craziness is factually wrong.
