The TEA (Taxed Enough Already) party sprang up in spontaneous rebellion to big government's big spending, big taxing ways. TARP, the bailouts, the PORKULUS package and ObamaCare lit the fuse. TEA partiers support the constitution's limited government restrictions. TEA partiers are non-partisan, i.e., we oppose the big government, big spending, big taxing moves of both the major political parties.
This is an open rebellion against business as usual big spending, overreaching government! We demand a return to constitutionally limited government!!
The socialist/progressive Democrat party is our natural enemy and they understand that and attack us accordingly.
The big government RINO socialist/progressive wing of the Republican party is also our natural enemy and they attack us accordingly. They fear us, but they NEED us. They despise us, spit on us, call us right-wing extremists and hateful bigots, but beg us for our votes. They EXPECT us to bend over in the end and willingly accept their BIG GOVERNMENT candidates and programs without any real opposition.
Oh, they may try to sugar coat it a bit, and placate us here and there with some smooth talk, and toss us a bone from time-to-time with conservative head feints, but it's clear they have no intention of ever changing their evil progressive ways.
The progressive wing of the GOP does not really comprehend that the TEA party rebellion is aimed squarely at THEM!!
They believe that we have nowhere else to go and that fear of an Obama second term will compel us to vote for a Republican version of BIG GOVERNMENT, big spending, big taxing, constitution ignoring progressive liar of a candidate.
Got news for them.
The TEA party rebellion is made up of tens of millions of liberty-loving, patriotic citizens who are totally fed up with corrupt, lying, two-faced, smooth-talking, big government socialists, corrupt crony capitalist bastard, progressives, Marxists, etc, and it makes no difference to us which party they belong to. And we're madder than hell and loaded for bear!!
This is OPEN REBELLION at the ballot box!!
TEA party hating elite establishment, Romney, Rove & Co., had best get used to it. Your any RINO but Obama gig is up!!
The TEA party is here to stay and we're NOT going to vote for your big government, TARP pushing, PORKULUS pushing, RomneyCare pushing, gun-grabbing, abortionist, gay-rights pushing, global warming advocating, mandate-loving, anti-Reagan, anti-liberty, socialist/progressive, flavor of the day RINO, the chief architect and advocate of ObamaCare, Mitt Romney!!
FUMR!! FUGOP!!
TEA partiers unite against Obama/Romney!!
The progressive GOP be damned!!
Long live the Republic!!
We’ll have to see how Perry does from here on out. The man has never been defeated in an election. He was undoubtably the main target in the debates - hit from all sides - when it should have been Obama that was the target. I blame that on the debate moderators, most of them have been liberals that were scared to the bone when Perry announced he was running. They made it their mission in life to ask questions to make it hard for him.
Combine that with the inexplicable way that Bachmann, Cain and even Santorum piled on Perry (and not Romney) and I think Perry was a bit blindsided. Since he was a newcomer in the debates, I don’t think he had his “boat legs” yet and did look like a deer in the headlights.
I believe he just had surgery for a back problem and probably had some issues with pain and discomfort too. This is not to excuse his performance - but I think we’ll see him get much better in the arena.
With the money he has raised - he lives to fight another day.
Forget all the others, none of the above. "
Palin isn't running.
Who then ?
I'm sorry, but I don't know what you are talking about. Your post doesn't make any sense to me. My post that you replied to - I clearly stated that I am supporting Gov. Perry.
I don't. I was wearing my seat belt long before the state decided to mandate wearing them because it was the smart thing to do. I wouldn't wear it just because the state told me so with a threat of a fine.
Likewise, I won't vote for Romney just because a bunch of GOP elite supporters threaten me with Obama. I won't succumb to blackmail. I'll vote tea party over Republican party every day of the week.
Don't you understand that as a nation we have already crumbled? 0bama's election was the proof.
From a 2008 post-election post on FR:
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president."
The ballot box is not our friend. The idiots have us outnumbered.
They were all GOP pickup not Tea Party pickups.
You're nuts.
You're angry because you failed to refute my post.
Perry.
Agreed. I think Hannity (though he is not alone) is one of the chief offenders. He wants it both ways: He talks like he is totally in agreement with the TEA Partiers, and, yet, habitually has the likes of Rove on his show and makes nice to them. Time for Hannity to po*p or get off the pot, in my view.
Love your tagline!
There's no point in refuting absolute stupidity. It speaks for itself.
I used to think that way but I've learned guys like Romney are just as bad as Obama to this nation as Obama himself.
The thing I keep asking myself: Romney wants to be president so bad that he lies on a daily basis about where he stands on fundamental issues. What kind of person does that? I've seen liars in my life. But Romney is the first liar I've seen since Bill Clinton that seems to feel comfortable lying to millions of people on a daily basis on issues that are core to who he is as a person.
I can't vote for someone like that, no matter how much I hate Obama. Let alone help him get elected.
I wouldn't dream of campaigning for Romney on FR.
“My small business simply can’t afford four more years of obamas communism.”
So it could afford 4 years of Romney’s unchallenged socialism?
Romney is just as bad for your business as Obama. Obama care is going to destroy nearly all small businesses, and with Romney in office you can bet it won’t be repealed. Hell, it was Romney’s idea in the first place!
If not for the Tea Party there would have been a lot fewer pickups. Try peddling your crap to Allen West, Lou Barletta and a couple of dozen others and see how far you get.
I can't recall the last time I encountered such an ill-informed FReeper.
Here is my math for 2012.
With Obama - I am guaranteed 100 percent to get screwed. No doubt Obama will royally take the plunger to me.
With Romney - let’s say it’s 70 - 30 he screws me. That still leaves me a 30 percent chance vs a zero chance w MaoBama.
yes I will vote for Cain or bachmann in the primary , but if the son of sam got the GOP nomination, the math is still the same, there is more of chance a serial killer would be better than Obama than not.
I know it sounds cold and crass, bt that is how I view 2012.
There is no point in refuting...Yet you respond again.
It speaks for itself.
It speaks for itself...but you use more words. What a wonderfully unintentionally ironic post. Thank for bring a smile to my face.
My comments had nothing to do with whether or not someone supports Perry. They were all about the attacks on those of us who do. It’s ugly, no other way to describe it. If someone disagrees with a Cain supporter, they resort to insults and worse.
Why do I get the feeling you won't be around to peddle your garbage in the future?
Excellent post Mr. JR
