Frum syndrome sufferer. The Tea Party must avoid any association with the GOP if it doesn't want to be co-opted and neutralized by the GOP elites.

[caver]

I just love the use of the word “purge”. Now we are getting compared to Stalin.

[Paladin2]

Shouldn’t “representatives” actually represent the interests of the People?

[rightwingextremist1776]

Must be another RINO going down....

Consider the source...this bitch is beyond brain dead

Oh dear, the TEA party is doomed unless they heed advice from the oh-so-concerned Suck Bee and empathic Kathleen Parker.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

""We were on a precipice. … Now we can sit back and say, 'Oh, it wasn't so scary.'"

Actually, many of us were saying this during the TARP vote. However, our representatives did not listen to us. That is why some of them are being shown the door like Senator Bennett.

I love it when a nutty liberal gives us advice on how to stay in power forever. We had eight years of Rhino power and where did it get us.

Kathleen Parker just wants to be loved by the Left. She is/was? a good friend of Laura Ingraham. I wonder what Laura has to say about her now?

[Texas Fossil]

Note- She went to college in Spain.

Note- She appears on Chris Matthews.

Note- She is an academic.

Note- She is a elitist bitter jealous, Palin Hater.

[Daisyjane69]

Can we just go “all in” and buy a roll of duct tape for this broad’s mouth?

Seriously?

[kabar]

Kathleen Parker is an a**hole. I don’t know why you post her crap here.

[Rummyfan]

Ugh, Kathleen Pareker. Palin hater and definition of a RINO. WGAD what she says about conservatism?

[Yardstick]

Voting against an incumbant is now a purge?

What kind of idiots think that way?

[LibFreeUSA]

Kathleen Parker is '5th Column' in our side of the fence.

A political and intellectual subversive, that proclaims certain beliefs while undertaking laser shots at those who are more sincere and stronger in their cause for a conservative agenda.

‘Republicans and free marketers felt that TARP was crucial to keep the economy from capsizing.’

A free market would not have capsized. But then again We are far past being a “Free Market”

Trap was nothing more than Privatize the profit and Socialise the loses. “Big Government bails out Big Business” has been the norm for years.

CEO’s and Board Members who participated in the Housing Scam being stripped of all their wealth, tared and feathered by the bond and stock holder instead were rewarded with large sum of money. Our Lawmakers who laid the foundation for the housing scam will not admit their roll or apologized to the tax payers. The lawmakers are still allowing the housing scam to continue. (FHA) Freddie and Fannie have how lost more money than they have ever made their liabilities are “off book” and still growing.

And My “overlords elites” (both parties) wonder why this Tax paying Tea Party member is still angry.

[riri]

Those are the three fundaments of the tea party's "Contract from America," to which any serious Republican must subscribe

Absolutely. From here on out.

I have no problem with her favoring a different candidate than the Tea partiers, but to characterize their choice as a “purge” is beyond stupid. People have a right to vote for candidates they prefer. It’s not a purge, it’s an election.
