"The media has got to begin to not give equal time or equal balance to an absolutely absurd notion just because somebody asserts it or simply because somebody says something which everybody knows is not factual, it doesn't deserve the same credit as a legitimate idea about what you do," Kerry said while appearing on MSNBC's Morning Joe Friday.
As Noel Sheppard writes at Newsbusters, this is exactly what Krugman wrote last week, but Kerry wasn't finished.
We have to, have to find a way to get some of these people in Congress, who are locked in to just one view about where we can go, and, and that’s really what’s hampered us. You know, when I have a top Senator in the Republican leadership tell me that he’s been calling members of his delegation and he can’t persuade them to do something reasonable here, that all they’re focused on are cutting, cutting, cutting, we got a problem.
What Kerry and so many of his fellow liberals fail to understand is that the nation's economy is on a very fast train to a very hot place, and the Tea Party Republicans were elected to bring fiscal sanity back to Washington.
The Senate has not passed a budget in over 820 days, and the only budget submitted by President Obama was so radical and extreme it got no votes in the Senate whatsoever.

First point, Kerry did no specifically mention the Tea Baggers, though it is obvious that they are a large portion of who he is talking about.
Second point, Kerry is not saying that the media should ignore Tea Baggers, he is saying that the media should ignore people who are making noise just for the sake of making noise. A lot of the people who were against raising the debt ceiling completely ignored the fact that conservatives had raised the debt ceiling numerous times before Obama was in office, and many of those people had no, and continue to have no damned idea about what failing to raise the debt ceiling would do to the national economy.
The sad fact is that the majority of the Tea Baggers are acting like spoiled children who just want to repeat soundbites that have been drilled into their heads, and until the majority of them start acting like adults that are capable of thinking for themselves or acting upon reason rather than a catchy soundbite, they should be ignored.
