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!!
Love this post and the one you wrote comparing Romney and Obama. Somehow the tea party needs to come back in force now before the election. Does anyone know if anything is being planned?
Did it ever cross your mind that some of the Perry-bots are actually Rom-bots too or does that thought not cross your mind?
You're not correct.
Here's a link to a video where Cain says when asked, that it is premature to say whether he would except being a VP fpr Romney.
Frankly, I’m not seeing many “Perry-bots” on the attack. Most of the agitators seem to be on Cain’s side.
You got all that right, Jim! Remember, he prepareth a table in the presence of our enemies.
Bias has a way of blinding people.
I've seen plently of reasonable criticisms of Perry come under personal attack.
For example I was called a liar by three different Perry supporters simply for pointing out Algore's liberal pro abortion history in the Senate in the 80's.
BTW I notice that you use the term "Perry-bot" in double quotes but you don't do the same when you use the term "Cain-bot".
There are attack-dog, bot-like supporters for all candidates. Posters don't notice the ones on the side of the candidate they support.
I’m not sure of your meaning. Want to clarify?
I know. Watch - he will backtrack on that. As we already know - even his supporters tried dancing around that one - with covered clueless ears. And given a pass about the rock comment. He promised to attack Mitt before this last debate. Wonder why he said that - could be it’s way too obvious what is going on even to his advisers. Yet, no such attack happened and hoping no one noticed.
It was clear.
Apparently so pnsn. Felt like I was on a liberal website last nite. The name calling and attacks...I call it the ‘pack attack’ mentality.
You might want to think about the reason Democrats have used the senior scare tactic all these years. It works. And not just on liberal seniors or socialist seniors or "dumb" seniors or whatever you want to label. When people find themselves in vulnerable positions, they get very nervous about anyone suggesting a change in the status quo. And if you think the Dems will be the only ones using that tactic this election I have a bridge to sell you. ANY discussion of ANY serious reform is going to be demonized just as we've always seen. Whether its 999 or anything else, at least Cain has the gonads to get the discussion out there. Cripes, even here the very discussion of it has people at each other throats, a year out! It's insane. So go ahead and have the last word, I'm sure you're dying to. As for me, I'm done listening to your unwarranted accusations.
Here’s what I noticed. Before Cain’s rather nasty turn over the rock issue, I was supporting three people—Palin would have been my first choice, and Perry and Cain were about even. I was never attacked by anyone when I said that Cain was one of the ones I supported. After the rock issue, and with subsequent remarks he made, etc., I dropped support for Cain. Palin dropped out, leaving only Perry. I can’t tell you the horrible comments directed at me personally for saying I didn’t care for what Cain did about the rock—some even suggesting I live in an area where cousins marry and people walk around with their knuckles dragging the ground. And then there are those who simply state that anyone who supports Perry is an idiot, a moron, you name it.
So yeah, I’m a little tired of it, and not expecting it from people I used to consider conservatives. I don’t see why a conservative can’t have a reasonable disagreement over who the nominee will ultimately be, without resorting to those kinds of tactics. If anyone wants to rip apart the conservative base, that would be how they’d go about it.
No, it wasn’t. Why not say it directly?
You have a nice day.
“Only a cretin would move in and commence to bitch about the service. I have NO patience for a poster like you.”
“Move in”? Excuse me? I’ve been here for most of those 15 years. I’ve paid my dues. If you don’t like what I have to say, then don’t read it (You obviously didn’t, but think you can intelligently comment on it). You don’t invite the entire world into your “house”. This is either “Jim’s forum” or “Jim’s feudal manor”. It’s up to him which he wants it to be.
This kind of high-handedness on the part of Jim leads me to believe he wants the latter. OK. I got no problem with that. To his credit, this is the first instance in which he has been “high-handed”. I’ll do my thing, and if he doesn’t like it, he can zot me. But my thing in future will not be gladly suffering Jim’s psychophants, your present post suggesting to me that you are a member of that group.
