Ping to a rather humorous article.
This battle should not be over the debt. The critical issue is to get SPENDING by the federal government UNDER CONTROL.
I just emailed Sean Duffy in Wisconsin - he caved - I live in TN and had to use Duffy’s office address just to be able to contact him. I donated to him every time they called me.
I asked to be removed from his donor list.
I likened the stand the TEA Party is making to the lone man standing in front of the tank in Tiananmen Square.
Rant On Kevin !
Humorous and truthful article pointing out the facts of a community organizers sorry tactics!
... and how an unorganized, fed-up bunch of citizens is raining on phroahs parade.
I am Hoping for Change in 16 months.
Thius battle is not over the debt, it is about expanding presidential power through politically engineered crisis. Obama is on his way to becoming a tyrant. What we are witnessing is the equivalent of the national socialist beer hall putsch in 1920s Germany.And the federal credit card is being used to bring it about.
DO you think Americans will pay any taxes after this? What will happen when the IRS begins massive seizures of the “wealthy class’s “ assets? LOL.
People are thinking way too small on recent events.
———To put a stop to all the crazy spending! ——
An analysis of the current events indicates that they were elected to serve as an invasion assault. The invasion force lacks the means and numbers to stop crazy spending. All though gung ho, they are learning their real purpose and mission.
The battle is being fiercely waged and they have gained the initiative. The brave assembly of strong fighters will require strong reinforcement (the Senate)and heavier weapons (the Presidency)
LLS
“It is not over till it is over”.
The political elites from both parties are shocked that a candidate would actually do what he said he’d do during the campaign. Why are they shocked? Because “we the people” have always allowed them to say anything they have to say to get elected. And now see what that got us? It got us a bunch of crooks who will do anything to keep the government running so they can fund their wealthy retirements and lavish lifestyle.
And the GOP will kick it down the road allowing obama to get re-elected. Anything to stay in congress and get richer.
STAND TALL, TEA PARTY. THIS IS YOUR ONLY CHANCE.
C.C.B was the compromise. If this is such a crises, take that off the table in the US Senate and pass it.
Brilliant post
Good article. We are near the end....
The GOP is asking Conservatives (once again!) for ‘bipartisan’ tolerance and to moderation in our demands and expectations.
Really?
The GOP is overlooking the past DECADES of Conservative ‘compliance’ on this issue.
The GOP is overlooking the surly insults and groundless accusations of ‘racism’ handed to American taxpayers, who HAVE for so long complied, HAVE given more and more, HAVE moderated their demands... American taxpayers are insulted and maligned just for expecting SOME accountability in return.
The GOP is overlooking the calculated and deliberate attempt of Liberals (including this President) to provoke internecine class conflict over taxpayer expectations for simple observance of basic and sound financial practice
The GOP is overlooking the fact that Conservatives did not/do NOT initiate the criminally mismanaged, grotesquely fraudulent, gratuitous and socially destructive entitlement programs which are hemorrhaging taxpayer resources.
This is only a brief description of the Tea Party/GOP disconnect.
In fact, if the GOP thinks they have a fight on their hands with Liberals, they are going to be challenged as fiercely by the Tea Party element in America and by ANY right thinking Conservative who has HAD ENOUGH and GIVEN ENOUGH.
The train is leaving the station and as much as I am opposed (personally) to the thought of a third party option in national elections, it looks like the GOP is forcing the issue.
What did honest and hard working Americans ever do to be cursed with a self-defeating Republican party and a lying, criminal, anti-American, Communist wolfs-head for a President AND a media which sees all issues and events in terms of their VERY Liberal bias??
Ok. So it doesn't do any good to gripe about the past; but if he would have shut his mouth instead of attacking tea party candidates, we'd have had a fighting chance in the Senate.
I despise him.
After watching the circus on air last night, I needed some funny prospective. Thanks for the great article.
The only way to rein in Washington is to take away our money. Not raising the debt ceiling is the only way to force America to cut government, something liberals abhor.
IMO a better course would be to throw the debt ceiling out. Let government spend whatever it wants. It won't take long for the American taxpayer to "rein in Washinmgton".....but it won't be with words or votes.
Remember the "Arab Spring"? This nation needs an "American Autumn."
Rove deserves to be tarred and feathered, the elitist bastard, or worse. LOL.
But watch him have tantrums over Palin. Its coming.
