The GOP and the Tea Party have been called anarchists, arsonists and hostage takers so much this week we’d almost stopped noticing. The New York Times’ Thomas Friedman managed to make a few ears perk up on NPR today, though, when he compared the GOP to terrorist group Hezbollah.
Tom Friedman: Hezbollah = Tea Party. Both use intimidating tactics to control a democracy.

That can't be true because Obama supports Hezbollah. RT @jaredbkeller: Tom Friedman just compared the Tea Party to Hezbollah on 'On Point'
