At the Tea Party I went I made a sign that said NO NEW TAXES throw the Bums out in 2010-2012. I will not vote for anyone who is a RINO.
All I read on another thread the other day was “oh I’ll vote for McCain (a proven loss) over that bum Simcox (apparently a bad rep for something or other” They want a RINO at least in AZ.
I would stick with no more spending, no more stimulus, throw the bums out.
With due respect, there’s no way 85% of people agree with the Tea Parties. At best, we have a SMALL minority — maybe 51%-49% — but we have NO political representation in Washington where it counts. With the exception of a FEW men and women (like Senator Jim DeMint), the majority HAVE no voice up there at all.
We certainly didn’t have a majority back in November — not that it would have made much difference. And we needn’t think that Washington, et. al. will be happy to see us get involved and try to change things. They’ll fight us tooth and toenail — I believe they will quite literally stop at nothing if it comes to that.
Even a majority of good men, if they have no voice, cannot defeat a determined minority with shrill voices and Federal Government support.
And if the alternative is a LINA (Liberal in Name and Action)?
