Commentary: 2010 elections guarantee gridlock, anti-capitalist class war

ARROYO GRANDE, Calif. (MarketWatch) -- “What’s distinctive about the Tea Party is its anarchist streak -- its antagonism toward any authority, its belligerent self-expression, and its lack of any coherent program or alternative to the policies it condemns,” warns Jacob Weisberg in Newsweek. But why not three cheers for the Tea Party Express?

Admit it, something historic is brewing. And yes, it’s good for America, even the anarchy. Revolution is renewal. Tea-baggers want to take on both parties, “restore honor” and “take back the country.” Bring it on, the feeling’s mutual.

OK, maybe most Americans just silently mimic the words, “we’re mad as hell, won’t take it any more.” But watch out: After November the campaign’s shrill rhetoric explodes into action.

Tea-baggers are kicking the revolution into high gear. Debt is sinking America. Both parties are to blame. So vote out incumbents. Spare no one. We need new leadership, another Reagan or Truman. Congress better get the message: Cut that budget, or they’ll dump the rest of you in the coming Great Purge of 2012.

Unfortunately they’re tone deaf. Congress cannot see past the election. All that changes in November.

So thanks Tea Party, Vegas odds must favor a Second American Revolution. Actually, the revolution is already roaring, hot, it’s about time. The GOP and the Dems had more than a decade. But America’s worse off. We need a real revolution to restore sanity … or we can kiss democracy and capitalism good-bye, permanently.

University of Texas (UT) Shooting in Progress

According to the infoWars website:

Concealed Carry Event Coincides With University of Texas Shooting

*************************************EXCERPT*************************************

September 28, 2010

Update: UT Law has canceled John Lott’s talk.

Infowars.com has learned that an open carry event was scheduled on the UT campus today, the scene of a shooting earlier today. From the Students for Liberty website:

On Tuesday, September 28 at 6:00pm, a coalition of student organizations on the University of Texas Austin campus, including the Libertarian Longhorns, the UT Students for Concealed Carry on Campus, the UT Objectivism Society and the UT Federalist Society, will be hosting John Lott, famed defender of gun rights and author of the book “More Guns, Less Crime”.

Lott’s work in “More Guns, Less Crime” is commonly cited by many liberty-minded people when arguing against gun control laws, and Lott will be sharing some of his expertise in this field to the audience of students and members of the community of Austin.

Austin has been a hot-bed of debate over the potential of state laws being passed that would make it legal for a person to carry a concealed handgun on college campuses.

If you are in the Austin area on the 28th, stop by the UT Law School and hear John Lott discuss the negatives of gun control and the positives of a free society!

The fact that the shooting occurred prior to the talk is, to say the least, highly suspicious.

FBI Raids Home of Obama Associate & Radical AAAN Leader in Terrorism Sweep

Last Friday FBI agents raided the homes of far left activists in Chicago and Minneapolis who are linked to the FARC and Islamic radicals as part of a terrorism investigation.

The home of radical Hatem Abudayyeh in Chicago was raided in the terror sweep.

The AP reported on the raid in Chicago.

FBI agents in Chicago took a laptop and documents from the home of a Palestinian-American anti-war activist in an attempt to silence his advocacy, an attorney said Sunday.

The FBI on Friday searched eight addresses in Minneapolis and Chicago, including the home of Hatem Abudayyeh, who is the executive director of the Arab American Action Network, attorney Jim Fennerty told The Associated Press.

1. Expect nothing positive from Dems, the GOP or Tea Party

“Nothing” would be better than what we get - and cheaper, too. Maybe they should consider repealing laws rather than passing more? Maybe they could just start leaving us alone?

2. Democracy has become too-big-to-govern … by anyone

It wasn’t supposed to be a Democracy. It was supposed to be Republic. If the Federal Government understood that it wasn’t their job to regulate all of existence, it wouldn’t be so d@mn big.

3. Clinton, Bush, Obama policies all feeding revolutionary flames

Burn, baby, burn.

4. Bush’s biggest mistake: Goldman CEO Hank Paulson

Don’t know enough to agree or disagree.

5. All partisan political leaders are destined to sabotage America

Actually, I’d like a bit more partisanship on the part of the ‘Pubbies, and a little less good will.

6. America’s democratic capitalism trapped in systemic failure

Get rid of the “democratic” part and we might get somewhere. And see #2.

7. Wall Street’s insatiable greed is a virus that never sleeps

Greed is good. Letting it feed from Federal coffers, is not, which where the trouble lies...

8. New political leaders offer no hope — Wall Street rules America

Oh, really?

9. Praying for a messiah, we’re sleepwalking till the revolution

We’re not praying for a messiah - we’re trying to put on the brakes before we go over the cliff.

10. The Second American Revolution coming

Depends - As long as they don’t interrupt “American Idol” or “Dancing with the Stars” they’re probably safe. IMHO, the average America is too apathetic to start a revolution.

[a fool in paradise]

The revolution already occurred. It was the bloodless (well relatively bloodless after 1975) Communist revolution that was underway since the 1960s. The rabble rousers outside and inside the Democratic Convention of 1968 now run the Party and the media.

They admitted as much when Obama was sworn in and we were told “we’re all socialists now” and “it was a velvet revolution”.

Some would like to see our Consitutional foundation upheld rather than accept the shackles of socialist slavery to the State.

The Democrats may mock the teabaggers, but the Democrats are going to take it on the chin this Fall.

Ah, but the Tea Parties . . . that's, that's where I had them!

Lookingglass ping #2 today.

I think we just entered that resonance period that showed up a couple of weeks ago regarding Election Fraud/CW2.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[Finny]

Does anyone know why this article has “Arroyo Grande” in the dateline? I’m curious!

HHHHMMMMMMMMMMMM

THANKS FOR THE UPDATES.

Ping to END TIMES LIST

[Finny]

Me too. It shows that the writer is either ignorant of the origin and intent of the term, OR that the writer endorses the term. Either way, it shoots his credibility all to hell.

[ridesthemiles]

Ah well, soon you’ll be able to buy Newsweek for $1 and I’m not talking about a single issue. I’m talking about the entire company”

That happened already- about 3 months ago. Jane Harmon’s husbend bought it.

[numberonepal]

When I read the article and reached to first reference to “tea-baggers”, I knew there was no point in taking the article seriously.

Where it says "...and its lack of any coherent program or alternative to the policies it condemns" is where I stopped. You're either stupid, lying, or not paying attention Paul. Which is it?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

I just assumed that might be his residence.

Does anyone know why this article has “Arroyo Grande” in the dateline? I’m curious!

Because "Arroyo Gault" was taken?

I’d be very careful, Paul “B.itch” Farrell, or you’ll be one of the first hangin’ from a yard arm!

[neverdem]

BTTT!

[Finny]

Yes, that's probably it, but why would he include the town where he lives in the dateline, as it has zero to do with the topic he's writing about? I'm very familiar with Arroyo Grande, and when I see the dateline, my first thought is that I want to read the article because it has news pertaining to the town.

Instead, it looks as if it's a kind of insider boast: "Hey, I live in this quaint little Central Coast town that you've probably never heard of because you're not nearly so hip as me." Of course, the minute he moved there he probably jumped on the no-growth bandwagon to keep other people from moving there and spoiling his little slice of paradise. I have no problem with no-growth types as long as they're willing to make it retroactive to a year or two before they moved there! ;^)

Paul sounds like an idiot.
