Democrats trapped by their seething hatred of Tea Party
Legal Insurrection ^ | 10/4/13 | William Jacobson

Posted on 10/04/2013 9:41:26 AM PDT by Lakeshark

Democrats’ seething hatred of the Tea Party movement has clouded Democrats’ thinking and ability to govern
**snip**
We have seen similar irrational conduct by every senior Democrat, from Obama on down to Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, and so on.
**snip**
Since the start of the Tea Party movement in the late winter and early spring of 2009, Democrats have been demonizing the movement in the most crude terms. Every time there is a public act of violence, the immediate response is to look for a Tea Party connection, which never is found.

It’s not surprising that in the past couple of weeks we have heard Democratic Party eliminationist rhetoric become even more shrill and hateful:
**snip**
This hatred has forced Democrats into a destructive non-negotiation position. Having framed the opposition as terrorists and suicide-bombers, Democrats have created a negotiation analogy from which it is hard to back down.

Democrats now will not even support funding they support, even for kids with cancer, because that would be giving in to what they perceive as terrorism.
**snip**
The demonization of the Tea Party leaves Obama no choice but to predict default on national debt, a threat he know does not have to be realized under any scenario other than by design, and to try to talk down the markets to pressure the purported-terrorists into capitulating.

Victory or collapse is not a good place to be in for a President of the United States. It becomes a disastrous self-fulfilling prophecy.

When a political opponent paints himself into a corner, that’s often a good thing. But not when that person is the President of the United States.

The unhinged totalitarian left is a sight to see. Prof Jacobson has it right, the media narrative is wrong, these leftists, especially Bambi, Reid and Pelosi have painted themselves into an absolutist corner.

I have a bit of a very intense dislike of them too, so that makes us even.

It’s becoming obvious that those who do not have God in their lives are in perpetual hate mode; they hate everybody and everything - including themselves.

Jesus is the only remedy for this evil.

The paid-for republicans will help them out of any corner they’ve found themselves.

The media will assist, as is their job. PBS (CPB) is still getting paid 400 million plus. Just doing their job.

In the USA, the Tea Party is the "Third Estate". The banking industry along with insurance and some big business are the "Second Estate". And, government is the "First Estate". Time to study the French Revolution; it's like peeking ahead at the last chapter to see how it all ends. Keep your powder dry, FRiends.

Their attempt to find a final solution to the tea party problem has proven to be problematic.

They are terrorists, themselves-the left. They are as I type committing terrorism upon the country in shutting down non-federally funded monuments and memorials, forcing people into untenable positions re their choices on health care which affect their very lives, etc.

I hate them. I could have mere contempt for something merely contemptible, but these people are dangerous and unrelenting n their attacks upon our freedom. They have my undying hatred.

The fanatical left—Democrats—hate the Tea Party because they fear it. Why do they fear it?

The Tea Party threatens everything the fanatical left has spent decades putting in place, including the GOPe.
