Once the health care bill was passed the Republican-Tea Bag Party reverted to Civil War legal tactics to seek repeal.

In the spirit of the Tea Bag Revolution, Republican attorneys general are involved in class action activity using the tactic of interposition.  

This is the same concept propounded by the legendary Senator John C. Calhoun of South Carolina, a doctrine that clashed with that of the founder of the Republican Party, President Abraham Lincoln of Illinois.

When was the last time you heard a Republican refer to The Party of Lincoln?  In bygone years the phrase was used repeatedly at Republican Party national conventions and on the campaign trail.
