Thanks Outlaw Woman.
Bill Kristol on the Tea Party: "It's an infantile form of conservatism." Scott Reed, veteran strategist and lobbyist: "I think it's waning now," talking to the reporter of the story about the Tea Party's influence. "Party leaders have managed to bleed some of the anti-establishment intensity out of the movement, Reed said, by slyly embracing Tea Party sympathizers in Congress, rather than treating them as 'those people.' Did he mean to say that the party was slowly co-opting the Tea Partiers? 'Trying to,' Reed said. 'And that’s the secret to politics: trying to control a segment of people without those people recognizing that you’re trying to control them.'"

The GOP establishment is like a single flea on the back of the St. Bernard TEA party.

We are sick of their leftist chatter and their leftist tactics to stop us from returning to our Constitution.

As I've been saying for years, they're not on our side. They're part of the good old boy marxist network in Washington, and they don't care about a damn thing but keeping themselves in power no matter what the cost to OUR country and us.

We outnumber them by far, and we should ridicule, ignore, and discard them, in that order.
