Oh no, not that sticks and stones thing again....

These fruitcakes are sickening.

It must be tough for them to keep breathing, when they know that they have absolutely no chance at ever living a happy life.

To extremists, like those who populate the current ‘left’ in the US, the activities of the Tea Party might seem that way. Too bad for them that they are out of touch, extreme, and just wrong.

Will somebody please tell that dumb bastard that TEA is an acronym, not a beverage?

Writing "Tea Party" is the writing showing his blatent right out of the chute. TEA stands for "Taxed Enough Already"; the "party" part is not a political Party, but a reference to the famous Boston Tea Party, where the people rose up against oppresive taxation and leadership.

The Tea party movement is not a political party at all. But you will never get the "definers" to admit that, because they are always trying to look "informed" in the MSM, therefore each reporter who is on probation for lack of readership is making up his/her own definition of the Tea party movement.

These writers seem to be afflicted with PWB...Permanent Writers' Block, but they know that they can always come up with something about the TPM. The TPM stories are their backup so they don't have to send "bash Sarah Palin" stories to their editors two days in a row.

We heard essentially the same thing in 1994. Right wingers like John Ashcroft, Rod Grams, George Pataki, and even George W. Bush could not win in their states. We see how accurate the Dems were in their predictions then.

I’d say we are more like maggots they use to eat the dead flesh (RINOS) out of the wound so we can save the patient(the GOP).

I didn’t recognize the name Chris Cofinis, but he was in the John Edwards campaign?

If so, wouldn’t he want to keep quiet about it? Let us destroy ourselves?

As a matter of fact all of this rotten group of Republicans and Democrats group should be destroyed for the health of our nation.They are two parties in name only. They both spend like drunken sailors and America cannot survive under them. We either take America back or we succumb.

The vile, hysterical rhetoric coming from the left really indicates they are in freak out mode.

Also helps turn off even more independents ahead of Nov.

Big words- no substance.

After the big words come over their lips, there is usually very little in facts, figures (not some BS from some irrelevant obscure source) and logic to actually base their opinion on.

The Tea party is “purging” the GOP of hacks, frauds and quacks that pretend to be Conservative only when it is politically opportunistic for them. Many Republicans are more about the party and their team winning than any sort of principal or value. What difference does it make in such cases if the Democrat wins? The entire ‘electable” argument is BS. A Republican that votes for health care, stimulus, etc etc etc is the same as a Democrat. It is forcing the GOP to put what it purports are it's values and principals in the forefront. It's actually holding people accountable, and making them define themselves.

I know the career politician would prefer to be ambiguous, to be undefined and be able to pander, be wishy washy on issues (I was for it before I was against it sort of crap)...... Well, the Tea Party is sort of a pain in the @ss for those types. Folks like Sam Johnson, even though a permanent fixture will have no issue. Why? Because he never did the RINO things McCain did.

Just as with Reagan where the party was defined, the Tea Party is once again “defining” what it means to be Republican, which they at least stated was to be conservative. The threat of a split, the wave of people demanding adherence to the core values, the popularity and success of these Tea Party candidates will propel the party to the top if they embrace it. If they fight it and are more worried about more of the same old “electable” garbage where they make drug deals behind closed doors, the Tea Party will tear the GOP down (as they deconstruct the Tea Party they will hurt themselves), and rightfully so. Rove picked the later, where do the other figures in the GOP stand? If the GOP thinks they will satisfy their base with another McCain type in 2012, they are mistaken. There is a reason WHY they lost in 2008, and McCain was just as much to blame as were the other factors in favor of Obama. MCCain, had clout and he was the man chosen for us by the GOP.

I just love it when democrats make hysterical proclamations as to what is bad/good for the Republican party. The more hysterical, the more it is BAD for the democrat party.

The Tea Party is nothing more than history repeating itself

Country-club republicans controlled the party until Reagan on the swell of the upstart Christian Right movement overturned the Rinos and the conservatives took over the party. Too bad he had a Dem house and Congress to work over.

Only reason Bush I did not get re-elected was the flip-flop on taxes and his wife saying she was pro-choice...The Christians and conservatives no longer trusted him.
