Native American Journalists Ass. LOL! That’s funny. I don’t care who you are, that’s funny right there. I didn’t know we had one of those.

Well, OK. So long as they didn't call them "Redskins."

Is the left deliberately letting it slip that they hate this country from its founding? They're not attacking a particular philosophy or political point of view but the very roots of America at this stage.
We've been saying this from day one and now they don't even make much effort to hide it.

TEA Party is more a meme than a formal organization.

...and that's what really scares the crap out of these Leftists. It's a decentralized, self-organizing force. It cannot be destroyed.

Leftists hate a lot of things and love little, if anything.

They’re Injuns. But that’s not a bad thing in itself. They’re Injuns with feathers up their rear, so to speak.

Over 5,000 colonists participated in the fateful meetings at Old South Meeting House that decided the fate of the tea in December of 1773, but only about 100 to 150 men actually boarded the ships to destroy the tea. Participants in the destruction of the tea swore themselves to secrecy and did not acknowledge each other when aboard the ship. Had the men’s names become known to British authorities, they would have been arrested and punished. Even years later, some retained secrecy for fear of lawsuits by the British East India Company.

I thought it to be ironic, that Indians are calling themselves “cowboys”.

Maybe you never played cowboys and Indians as a kid.

War whoops of laughter all around! American Indians are the silliest of the politically correct.

A clear indication that they fear the evolution of a new right wing movement that will wipe the Obamanauts off the map...google UKIP and Stephen Harper...both leaders have, or are raising a new conservative political movement from the ashes. The lefties are pooping their panties. The western democracies are rejecting social democracy

Sorry about that. I’m reading this on my phone and didn’t see “Cowboys”. I just went back and scrolled over to see it.

and patterned themselves after a bunch of so-called Boston Patriots who decided to rebel over a tax on tea

So called patriots.

I guess the author must be quoting Howard Zinn or some other Commie scholar.
