We've been so consumed with the Death of America this past week that we haven't much focused on... the Death of the Tea Party Convention! Everyone who signed up is pulling out -- including, most recently, wacky old Michele Bachmann. Teabaggers have been furious that tickets are going for $549, the profits from which will go towards some white trash con-man's bank account. So far, Sarah Palin is still set to speak for her $100,000 fee. Let's pray for riots. Many... many... riots. [Star Tribune]
