Dirty Rotten Scoundrels - with a right to be

In the discussions about the debt ceiling issue a lot of people have ascribed motives to their opponents which I believe are unjustified.  The most egregious of these have come from commentators on the left who have described the Tea Party members in the House as being immature.     One writer called the Tea Party people "petulant children."  

Most of the people elected in the wave of 2010 were elected with a very explicit mandate - to lower the debt and governmental spending.  I understand that there is too much vitriol in American politics but this snide side is too much.
