Montana Cowgirl at Daily Kos narrates the political dismemberment of state legislator and quintessential tea bagger Bob Wagner by Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer, Genius. In a nutshell:

So Wagner ended up in the headlines, first proudly decrying government spending, then being revealed as having denied his district important funds, and finally suing the Governor to try to get more government spending for his district.

If only all self described members of the tea party were as politically adroit as the (soon to be) former legislator from Madison County, Montana.
