During the first two years of Obama’s presidency, he had super majorities in the House of Representatives and Senate. This gave the Obama and the Dems unchecked power to ram through virtually any piece of radical left-wing legislation they wanted. The Republicans were powerless to stop anything. That’s where the Tea Party came in... We formed to start keeping Washington accountable for their reckless out-of-control spending and to adhere to the U.S. Constitution. We also made sure we were going to make a dramatic impact in the November 2012 elections and help put the brakes on Obama’s agenda. We succeeded not only by electing the largest wave of GOP and Tea Party candidates in 70 years, but we recaptured the House and gained in the Senate.
Now that Congress at least has the ability to keep Obama and the Dems’ radical left-wing agenda in gridlock mode, I think many Tea Party people are taking a breather. It’s difficult to sustain the feverish intensity required to oppose this left-wing regime for years on end, especially when we have family and jobs to attend to. And the Tea Party knows full well 2012 is going to require every ounce of fight we have left in us to throw Obama out of office. It will be intense. It will be draining. And the Tea Party knows it. And that’s why I think many of us have been concentrating on restoring our energy over the past year for the epic battle to come in 2012.
The Tea Party hasn’t gone away. Not at all. And don’t for one second start buying into the media narrative that is has. It’s simply rekindling its fire and getting ready to unleash itself once again for the United States of America’s last stand against left-wing tyranny in 2012. You just watch.
