Conservatives = adults (of any age)
Liberals = immature children (of any age)
All I’ve got to say is that I didn’t see any cops in riot gear during the tea parties. Seems to me that it says something about our respective behaviors.
According to MSNBC they are now running against "racist rednecks" in their current strategy. Obama didn't even run on a policy platform as radical as what they are doing now. So this meme doesn't hold up or pass scrutiny. This is the old Clinton blame-Rush-for-the-Oklahoma-City-bombing jive routine they do when they are panicked. Obama policies are not working so they are in panic mode and back to playing dirty.
The video is a description of the 5 supposed forms of government, from 100% government control (Communism, facism, totalitarianism etc) to 0% government (anarchy) it obliteraties all forms of government as only temporary and futile except for 2, olgiarchy and republic. It does this in a clear concise manner, which effectively shows even a grade schooler about them. It then, in the last few moments, explains Rome, its beginning as a republic, and its morph into a democracy. The parallels are well put, and clearly where this country is today. It is an excellent way to spread the word to those who have never been taught proper history, and that is alot of people since they have been re writing it for so long now.
I have been posting this sucker all over all day, and sometimes I forget that some are stuck at work, so I have included the above basic description of the video, however it does not do the video justice. I beg, implore and urge all to view it who have not. THIS is the reason we are so angry. Taxes are a symptom, losing our republic is the disease!!!!!

This topic does underscore the problem presented when the majority enable a government to break the constitution and pass legislation potentially damaging or even destructive to the whole nation, majority and minority suffering its effects together.
Sometimes a principled minority has to stand up and form a barrier to the further reckless advance of the tanks of the monolithic state. That effort sadly failed twenty years ago in Beijing, but in a society still partly free like the United States, with God’s help, it may succeed.
Escondido Tea Party Tax Revolt, April 15th, 2009.

That opening to our opponents was handed to the left on a silver platter by associating the TP’s with a movement that had little to do with the symbolism in which it was draped. The second mistake was making it in large part about taxes rather than concentrating solely on borrowing, the deficit (though higher taxes may be the result down the road, Americans can’t think more than 2 weeks ahead) and bringing the calawags responsible for this economic collapse to justice.
Rather than fix their mistake the organizers have called for...more Tea Parties.
Unless they change their strategy I’m giving the whole th8ing six months before it implodes.
These people are as ignorant as I was 10 years ago. And that was quite a lot of ignorance.
