Barack Hussein Obama did not sneak into power. An army of clueless, disconnected, ignorant Americans invited him to bring his Marxist, glaringly anti-American jihad into our lives. This president's overtly destructive, clear-and-present-danger agenda is surpassed in transparency only by his ultra-leftist public voting record and overall lifetime conduct of consorting with the enemy as a child and student of Marxism, socialist and racist community organizer, congregant of the blatant America-hating black-theology- and social-justice-spewing Rev. Jeremiah Wright and close personal friend of convicted communist terrorists like Bill Ayers, and by his unflinching appointment of an array of communist czars, including Van Jones, Cass Sunstein, Anita Dunne, et al. So let me get this straight: You claim your intentions were noble because you simply wanted to get your child a puppy but somehow didn't notice that it was foaming at the mouth, and now you're shocked that your child has rabies? I think not. That is not a mistake. It is negligence -- dangerous, life threatening and, I am convinced, downright criminal negligence.
And the price for such negligence is catastrophic, don't you know.
But it gets worse. For, you see, the blame doesn't fall just on the obvious stupidity of our friends and families who voted for this corrupt, death-wish government in whose stranglehold we find ourselves. Ultimately, it is our fault. It is the failure of those of us who know better but have failed miserably to educate our own. Living our lives with a captive audience of family, friends, co-workers, socialites, fellow worshippers at church and other parents at school...

I think he sees himself otherwise:
Nah. Ted talks a good talk, biut I don't think he's up to the real thing.
Nope. Try Robert Heinlein.
Thanks. . . : )
From John's most recent In Range essay:
For those of you who don’t know my public political history, my grandfather was Charles Ross, lifelong friend of and Press Secretary to President Harry S. Truman. I am appalled at how the Democratic Party of Harry Truman and Ronald Reagan has slowly yet inexorably been hijacked by extremist elements that want to turn America into a dismal Socialist nanny-state, with crushing debt and little promise of personal betterment for ourselves or our children.
Yes, I said the Democratic Party of Truman and Reagan. Reagan was a registered Democrat when Truman was President, but endorsed the presidential candidacy of Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956 before formally switching to the Republican Party in 1962. He said, famously, “I didn't leave the Democratic Party. The party left me.” I wish that Reagan had remained a Democrat and prevented the Socialist disaster that developed in the following decades.
,br> The question I’d like to know right now is whether the Tea Party people consider themselves to be a part of the Republican Party, or not? Is a Tea Party candidate who is a Democrat an oxymoron, someone who would be shunned or ignored by Tea Party members, or someone they might support?
Perhaps not yet. But it may perhaps be time to hand out a few Benjamin Cleveland awards.
--"'Old Round About,' as Cleveland was familiarly known (taking that sobriquet from his plantation of the same name), probably had a hand in hanging more Tories than any other man in America. Though this may be an unenviable distinction, he had to deal with about as unscrupulous a set of ruffians as ever infested any land--men who murdered peaceable inhabitants, burnt dwellings, stole horses, and committed about every other act in the catalogue of crime....(1906. Ashe, Samuel. Biographical History of North Carolina, Vol. V, p. 71.)

Yes, it's an oxymoron.
The Democrat party long ago took on the color of the enemy, and is in abject treason to this nation. Anyone who would still align themselves with that despicable body of degraded souls will not get my support.
If a candidate for office is so blind to the forces of this historical era, as to be a registered Democrat, they don't deserve the support of the Tea Party.
I can accept individual Democrat voters becoming active in the Tea Party. They're in the middle of a personal epiphany, and will no doubt change their party affiliation at some point.
stay safe all...
We’re seeing the fruits of our crappy public education system.
Thanks for the ping.
Nugent knows his liberals. Hats off to him.
I give up - what's 'over the top'?
Eh? Did he say something uncharacteristic recently?
Like many here, I could have wrote that article a year and eight months ago.
It’s just what the doctor ordered. Thanks bitt.
Sorry Ted, while I agree with the majority of what you say, I, nor any of my family voted for The Pretender in Chief.
BTW... I'm with Uncle Ted on this one...
Uncle Ted bump
