White House invites Tea Party members to challenge it on transparency issues

I’d rather see the Tea Party movement challenge the Obamunist on Maxist sympathies within this administration.

Why let Obama One set the agenda of the debate and “controversies”?

[Eric Blair 2084]

This "it's a trap" stuff bothers me.

There are a few hundred FReepers I know here and a select two dozen conservative talk radio hosts or opinion columnists who would win a debate vs the Bolshevik Blatherer Barack "Fitzgerald" Obama under any terms he chooses.

Today is the 30th Anniversary of the Miracle on Ice. If a bunch of American college kids can win vs a Soviet hockey team that beat the NHL's best, we can find people who can kick Barack "Fitzgerald" Obama's butt up and down the rink for public amusement.

Some of you are even here. Where is the American Spirit?

Bring it on. Wherever, whenever they want. Choose your weapons. We choose the truth.

This is thuggary to split the party...boy are they cunning and crafty like witches!

[caww]

No..it’s recognition of a seperate party...so important we not take the bait....no third parties which is what the rats want...don’t acknowlege the invitation. It’s a set up.

“Heh—he just wants to ID some leaders to Alinsky-ize them, a la Carville.”.....

You are SO right.

I hope they don’t take the bait...

“Heh—he just wants to ID some leaders to Alinsky-ize them, a la Carville....”

BINGO!!!

The TP organization should send a panel....with questions signed by thousands..for them to attempt to publically answer.

[SZonian]

What a childish maneuver by this administration, but then again, I expected nothing less.

This should end badly for the WH and I hope it does, but to those who accept the challenge, beware.

[ConjunctionJunction]

Yep!

[chuck_the_tv_out]

trap. ignore trap. provide with further rope.

[ConjunctionJunction]

I think someone could make a lot of money selling those t-shirts and bumper stickers/car magnets!

Hey, Carville, I got your “Tea Party Leader”!

[jersey117]

he just wants to ID some leaders to Alinsky-ize them, a la Carville.

Oh yes.

[b4its2late]

Yeah, good point.

[TheThinker]

I’d say the Tea Party protesters already have challenged Obama on transparency. Someone just isn’t listening.

[Wisconsinlady]

I BEG all of the tea party leaders to tell him to stick it in his ear. I thought he didn’t even notice all of us in Washington, DC on 912? We’ll talk to you, Mr. Prez, after November when you have noone left to push your Marxist agenda.

[Wisconsinlady]

By the way...CAN YOU HEAR US NOW???!!! What a dirtbag.

[pillut48]

I hope it turns into a new conservative meme, going viral across the internet! Got the idea from iamtheteapartyleader.com, posted by another FReeper here the other day! :-)

Now you must pardon me, I'm off to report to my evil insurance company overlord who sends me humongous paychecks for participating in tea parties and town hall meetings! It's easy money for 'astroturfing', LOL. ;-)

[pillut48]

Ya know, that’s one of my pet peeves concerning the way Tea Party/Town Hall people are treated by this administration and their flunkies. NO, I’m NOT ‘anti-government’, I’m anti-BIG-government. NO, I’m NOT ‘anti-tax’, I’m anti-EXCESSIVE TAXATION AND GENERATION THEFT-tax! And so on. Yet the MSM continues to try to represent us as some kind of anarchists/terrorists. I CAN’T WAIT FOR NOVEMBER.

[Eye of Unk]

Obama lacks “standing”.

Pass..

I don’t recognize him as the legitimate president so why should we bother having a meeting with him?

No sense in having a discussion with an usurper, unless we are surrendering.

"I would be thrilled to make this a type of political competition ... to see who can be more radical in their openness, in their data distribution models ... trying to prove to the citizens they can run a better government," said McLaughlin, a former executive at Google.

Thanks Nachum.
