Tea Party sponsor sued over fatal fire

The LOSEianne hooligans are responsible for the Tea Party Express - a protest on wheels that travels from city to city.

One of the corporate sponsors of the Pee Party Express is BusBank, a Chicago-based bus firm. BusBank is also taking the Tea Party sore losers to Saturday's tantrum in Washington.

Now it turns out that BusBank had been sued over a bus fire that killed 23 nursing home residents fleeing Hurricane Rita. The company had to pay millions of dollars when it was discovered that (in addition to other problems) the bus driver didn't even have a driver's license.

BusBank blamed the government for the entire incident.

After the fire, however, the Bush regime awarded BusBank a $55,000,000 Homeland Security contract.

Talk about a revolving door of GOP connections, huh?
