Tea Party Protester Calls Republicans to Carpet
The Voice magazine ^ | September 3, 2009 | Pat Wright

Posted on 09/03/2009 1:06:38 PM PDT by truthnomatterwhat

On the first page of your website you have a section that says something to the effect, “tell me what you think.” OK, here it is. How much longer do “we the people” have to sit out here and wait for you to do something? Where is your voice? Where is your spine? Why does a talk show host/entertainer have to do your job? Where is the leadership of the Republican Party in Congress?

If the United States of America survives past 2009 it will certainly not be because the RNC and the congressional leadership stood firm and held news conferences and produced youtube videos, to keep us, the citizenry informed. What a sad state of affairs when the media controls what we get to hear from you, the elected officials. Are you fearful of what they will call you? Have you no power? Do they own you?

The grassroots have been fighting since April to voice our opposition to what is happening in our government. We have held tea parties, town halls, rants in public places, we have all become proficient on facebook, twitter, blogs, etc. We stay up most nights trying to google information, watch Glen Beck, read and re-read our Constitution. We have been like blind people trying to put a puzzle together and now that we are succeeding in seeing what is being done to us, it’s a f rightening thing. I can only speak for myself but there have been times in the last six months that I have to pinch myself and ask if I am still in my country.

Clearly not watching tv as people are attending using their voice and spines - that talk show host has not attended a tea bag or town hall - the people are.

He is looking for the voice of the GOP who has been for the most part silent on Obama and DNC radical changes

The GOP/RNC phone bank is open. Send in money. Don’t ask questions. That is all.

Heck, the GOP has been silent since we helped Newt in 1994.

The GOP simply fails.

With the Dims’ self destructing maybe it’s better for these light weights not to say anything! Never get in the way of an enemy committing suicide.

To Michael Steele and every State GOP Chair: Show us your documented - “in writing” - plan on how you are going to “ungrow government.” If you have no plan, you should immediately resign.

“Are all the conspiracy theorists correct when they say that the Republicans are just as instrumental in destroying our country as the liberal fascist arm of the Democratic Party are?”

Yup.

The Republican Party was born in the effort to free blacks from permanent bondage. If it is not reborn to free all the people from permanent bondage to government it will have to be tossed aside like the Whigs.

Yep...even Alinsky's rules dictate that it's easier to isolate, demean and ridicule an individual than an entire institution. The GOP is best to remain decentralized and let the dems keep trying to play whack-a-mole for the next couple years.

They’re trying to whack Palin, but she’s remained “whack-proof”.
