Tea party tears into Bob Dole


Former Senator Bob Dole has never been one to sugar-coat how he feels. At one point during the 1990s, he growled for George H.W. Bush to "crawl back into his cave." Perhaps it comes from being a World War II survivor whose right arm was damaged to the point where he barely has use of it. Perhaps it comes from his no-nonsense look at the Republican Party.

was a guest on "Fox News Sunday," and had some words of advice for the Republican Party, according to the Daily Caller:
Former Senate majority leader and 1996 Republican presidential nominee Bob Dole had harsh words for today’s GOP on this weekend’s “Fox News Sunday.”

Dole told host Chris Wallace that his party needs to focus on “positive agendas.”

“I think they ought to put a sign on the national committee doors that says closed for repairs until New Year’s Day next year and spend that time going over ideas and positive agendas,” Dole said.
That brought harsh words from the tea party faction of the Republican Party with suggestions that Dole should go away.
