Is it wrong to say that people like him are extremely dangerous?

Some jobber on an internet board is harmless. The fact that there are people with similar thoughts in US Congress in the Tea Party is a huge issue and they are dangerous. They were a huge reason why the recent bill didn't include a revenue increase (ala increase in taxes). To get out of this mess, the US needs to increase revenues while also cutting spending. To do only one of these only continues the bleeding. This is from someone who welcomes low taxes but in normal periods. This period is far from normal.
