Fareed Zakaria interview: [ http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2011/07/30/video-zakaria-on-tea-partys-influence/?hpt=ac_bn3 ]

Here's a summary of some of the points in the interview:

They'll blow up the country

They'll hold the credit of the U.S. hostage

Others say they are counter constitutional

They hijack the entire system

They don't understand the workings of democracy

They have not been elected as dictators of the U.S.

fundamentally anti-democratic, counter constitutional

extraordinary act of hostage taking

They've already damaged the good standing of the U.S.

Fareed Calls on Obama to invoke 14th Amendment

It's a national emergency almost like a war

Tea Party congressman relies on "magic" with their claims

When commentators speak from their heart, speak the truth, and reject the false equivalency that dominates the media, we need to thank them for their great work.

Here is a link to a feedback page for Anderson Coopers show. Thank him for having Fareed Zakaria, a most thoughtful commentator, on the show. We often need to give as much positive feedback as we do negative.
