Tea drinkers try to "bag" Menendez

Wingnut activists affiliated with the national Tea Party movement are hoping to unseat U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez. The group, called the Committee to Recall Senator Robert Menendez, is going to court after its petition to recall the senator was denied by former Secretary of State Nina Mitchell Wells last month. The Tea Partiers, part of a Sussex County group supporting limited government and opposed to Menendez’s stance on healthcare reform, are contesting the decision in a state appeals court.

Dan Silberstein, a lawyer for the group, said the legal battle is over which constitution — the U.S. or state — should apply to residents who want to recall their senators. "We essentially have a New Jersey constitution that says we can do it," said Silberstein.

Essentially? What's that? Sounds like another way of saying that it really doesn't say what these idiots want it to say.
