He wants transparency, like he want the summit on Friday to be bi-partsan, after he has already written his own bill.

Anytime the Left says something that sounds reasonable we can rest assured there is an ulterior motive, as you guys say. We also know the TEA PARTY is not a political party at all. Instead is a movement, a political uprising, and the name is a symbol for the uprising of the colonists.

The media, including some who are mildly conservative, don’t seem to understand that distinction. However, the media and the rest of the Left are trying to present it as a political party in hopes of it becoming one. That would split the conservatives and assure a win for the Democrats.

Challenging someone to speak for them is part of that effort.

Taxed Enough Already is what it stands for, Mr President. “Transparency” is another issue, thats just another one of your campaign lies.

Once again, the White House decides to get into a fight on the opponent’s turf.

Another way to put it,

Once again, the White House decides to get into a fight with American Citizens.

Clinton Plotting Tea Party Counterattack

Big Government has learned that Clintonistas are plotting a “push/pull” strategy. They plan to identify 7-8 national figures active in the tea party movement and engage in deep opposition research on them. If possible, they will identify one or two they can perhaps ‘turn’, either with money or threats, to create a mole in the movement. The others will be subjected to a full-on smear campaign. (Has MSNBC already been notified?)

Serious question for the thread. Does anyone recall G.W., playing these types of games?

Obama is supposed to be the President for pete's sake. Is this really all they have to offer after barely over a year?

Winning at any cost is the name of their game, even if it brings this country down.

Regarding Zero’s birth certificate. Wouldn’t you think he’d lay this controversy to rest by just showing it? How simple would that be?

LOL This administration only knows one game.... LIE... Just say it wasn’t you. You get caught just bold face lie.

The least transparent administration in history hypes itself as being the most transparent, next up Obama really is a fiscal conservative and has created the way forward for a future of government surplus...

LIAR, LIAR, LIAR...

This is the typical tact of Narcisistic totalitarian dictators like Obama.

Pay no attention to those gulags we have its just to house the global warming deniers because its for the good of the planet...

This would be why the Tea Party refuses to centralize under one umbrella. To do so would make it an easy target. Even if leads to some confusion sometimes or missed opportunities in elections better that then aid the liberals in their search and destroy mission.

U.K. Prime Minister Gordon Brown is leading a major push for the release of public data, while the Conservative Party's David Cameron is running on a platform of transparency and has vowed to publish details of every government contract online.

Had to be pushed a little before the UK government forced the release of the GW data. What's that you say, the UK government didn't release it, it was pirated out. Yeah transparency is a good slogan.

Good post on the difference. A LOT of people still think it’s a “party” but it is indeed, a movement. Let’s keep it that way..
