Tea Party Leader Resigns Over Rand Paul's Pal Adam Kokesh
Genuine GOP Mom ^ | March 23, 2010 | Mommy

Posted on 03/23/2010 4:05:57 PM PDT by La Enchiladita

Below is a video of Rand Paul with his pal Adam Kokesh talking about their common "movement".

Read a report at Gathering of Eagles about James Bancroft's "mighty stand for truth" as he has resigned the Hartford Tea Party over their support for Peter Schiff who is part of this Libertarian "movement" with Adam Kokesh. Please read the whole post.

There is no doubt in my mind that Ron Paul's libertarian movement is attempting to take over the Republican Party through co-opting the Tea Party movement. We've seen this here in Kentucky as a good chunk of our Tea Party leaders supported Bill Johnson, but Rand Paul's big money (77% of it coming from out of state people in this "liberty movement") gave him credibility with the media and made him able to bill himself as "the Tea Party candidate" here. It was all a hoax, of course, and now Kentucky's grassroots-selected candidate has been disenfranchised.

Across America, the story seems to be the same. Many people involved in politics for the first time in many years have no idea that the Ron Paul / Rand Paul camp is actually anti-war, hates the 14th amendment and the 17th amendment and.....believe in UFOs. Like the people in the Hartford Tea Party who would not listen to Mr. Bancroft, they are being duped with the "broadened message" of Rand Paul and other candidates in this "movement". It's like Obama all over again.

“The Tea Party has leaders?”

No.

Whew. Thought I missed the Memo...

As one of the most dedicated followers of Mitt Romney at freerepublic, it shouldn’t surprise us that you are supporting the milquetoast Romney man, Trey Grayson regardless of how many points he is behind Rand Paul in this Senate race.

Rand Paul has a commanding lead over the Romney favorite.

According to the Johnson supporters before he dropped out, “Trey Grayson, a Republican candidate for US Senate, was the keynote speaker on the issue of global warming last year at Eastern Kentucky University as part of the National Focus the Nation event.

Now, why is that such a big deal? Well, the Special Adviser for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation for Focus the Nation is none other than Van Jones. Yes, that’s right, the self-proclaimed communist Obama hired to be the Green Jobs Czar that had to tuck tail and resign at midnight.
WHOA”

Well, no, birthers deny what they plainly saw

I stand by the conversation I had with an 18 year old mullatto male that I met in Honolulu who told me he was born in Mombassa, raised in Indonesia and lived in Hawaii with his relatives in 1980 who also told me he wanted to be president.

I just wish I had a camera

Any questions?

Here is what the Bill Johnson supporters were quoting on their web site related to Romney’s man Trey Grayson before Johnson dropped out.

“Now there’s Trey with connections to White House Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise, and Innovation Van Jones. You may recall him as the avowed Marxist and 9-11 Truther who recently resigned his position under Obama.

Add to the chicanery the following and you’ve got one hell of a mess in Kentucky Republican Senate candidate politics:

“Grayson is affiliated with the George Soros/Rockefeller funded,
ultra left wing, pro-Globalist, Aspen Institute. He completed an
Aspen-Rodel fellowship program. Aspen was founded as the Aspen
Institute for Humanistic Studies. Aspen recruits young ambitious
politicians with “bipartisan” leanings, and then grooms them for
higher office. (Notice how rapidly Grayson’s career has risen???)
Aspen’s CEO is the notorious left wing media mogul, Walter Isaacson
(former CEO of CNN and managing editor of TIME)Why does Grayson boast
his Aspen affiliation on his own website? No true conservative would
have anything to do with Aspen - an organization that welcomes
radicals like the self admitted communist Van Jones.”

*snicker* FReepers are very witty! YOu guys crack me up.

I say the Tea Party Movement is lead by the people. The Paulbots tried to co-opt it (remember ours, SoCal?) but I'm hoping we kick them out and keep it real!

Yes, PaulBots handing out 9/11 Truther papers.

This is why Sarah and other Republicans are trying to shift it to a Conservative function so the Paulbots
don’t muddy the water.

Granted, and he did not like a Christian Political Influence in politics.

Point being, upon reading the link to the blog, some were saying they would vote for Grayson the Dhimmicrat over Rand Paul, my question would be

why?

The three wars?

I tend to agree that we cannot forever finance bases around the world, and I tend to agree with the notion that we are on the brink of national bankruptcy and ponder how long can we finance those efforts?

Lest I be branded a “Paulestinian”, I do think all three wars must be won, in the future, how long could we afford to wage such wars again?

Looks like people are finally understanding what is happening and that the Paul people are trying to use the Tea Party for their own gain. Happy to see the guy resign. Thanks for the info!

Been asking that since Day One. Rand Paul even said he shares the same philosphy with his Dad but just packages it different. I cannot repeat what went through my mind at that moment.

Thanks for all those links. I still haven’t recovered from the fact that Rand Paul is even running in KY — did he ever get a house there?

If you are up in the evenings you should join some of
us who for the past few yrs. + nightly are locking horns with the PaulBots.
It gets ugly.
Have delt with PaulBots face to face at the teaparty events many months ago. This is why Sarah want the Republicans to take the tea party back.

I am definitely not a Romney Supporter — ask anyone on here that knows me and I wouldn’t vote for Rand Paul for dog catcher. He gets in office and KY will rue the day they swallowed his kookaid.

When I saw the pictures of Kokesh with the anti-war crowd I would have to question anyone on here supporting him. If you need help, just ping me. My gloves have come off on here after dealing with the two parties are all like crowd. Ready for WAR!

Usually up late. They are running candidates in OK and tried to take over our County Party and the State Party for the last two elections. They basically run the Tea Party movement here and why a lot of us don’t have anything to do with it.

I’m trusting Governor Palin and Steve Forbes over the Romney/Rockefeller part of the GOP on this one.

Trey Grayson voted for Bill Clinton in 1992 and was an early endorser of Mitt Romney and he seems to have blown about 30 points among the Republicans of Kentucky, going from about 15 points ahead last summer to 15 points behind today, that means something in a statewide race.

Actually I have been dealing face to face with the Paul bots at least for four years or more.
It is an honor when the PaulBot ringleader on FR
and his lemmings bash Sarah
