What if Al Qaeda and the Koch Brothers donated to Tea Party Candidates?

The following quote gave me this idea today and I thought I would bounce it off of you:

begin quote:
Benjamin Wittes, a senior fellow in governance studies at the Brookings Institution, this week described our current Congress as a greater danger to national security than Al Qaeda, writing, “We don’t tend to talk about Congress as — at this stage — what it plainly is: the clearest and most present danger in the world to the national security of the United States.” end partial quote from:

This quote got me to thinking: I realize that the Koch Brothers interest in the Tea Party and donating to them is so their businesses have less obstacles to making money anyway they can.

However, I also realized that Al Qaeda also has a business interest in donating to the most extreme and ideological candidates like Senator Ted Cruz of Texas because he is brilliant with a Harvard degree and well recommended as a principled and unflinching debater. And who is incapable of the word compromise in regard to his "Tea Party" Principles. What better candidate for Al Qaeda to donate to to eventually overthrow the U.S. Government without any bombs or deaths. So simple.

And so horrifying to all of us who see it coming!
