"You know something, Valerie - As I watch this dangerous right-wing
reactionary shed her crocodile tears I become even more determined
to complete the fundamental restructuring of this white elitist country."

A tea party witness from Alabama launched into emotional testimony Tuesday as she described her group’s political abuse at the hands of the Internal Revenue Service.
“We peacefully assemble. We petition our government. We exercise the right to free speech. And we don’t understand why the government tried to stop us,” Wetumpka Tea Party President Becky Gerritson said during her opening statement before the House Ways and Means Committee.
“I’m not here at as a serf or a vassal,” she went on, beginning to choke up. “I’m not begging my lords for mercy. I’m a born-free American woman, wife, mother and citizen.”

What conservatives need to realize is that if you have nothing of use to the marketplace (which is composed of your fellow humans), capitalism can be equally cruel in that you are totally ignored.
Capitalism is still the best system, but it is not perfect either.
Obamanation hasn’t brought our nation to tears, he has brought it to the brink of totalitarianism, and the people who see it are calling him out on it. The second amendment protects all of the others, because when OUR government turns on us, they need to be reminded as to who is exactly in charge, and the laws they have to abide by. Ignore the Constitution at your own peril!
The left has been at war with America for decades. Too many of us are only just now waking up to that fact.
He may have brought it to armed insurrection too.
truth.
The IRS
DELEGITIMIZED
the 2012 election.
The government that is power now is NOT LEGITIMATE.
Well, obviously, we’re not in Kansas anymore.
I do not like what this country has become but I love what it was.
We need to bring him to trial.
I dare them to try. This is a powder keg moment and I don't think ANY Federal or State employee will let even the beginnings of a thought form to harass her.
Who is going to ride that tiger? Not the spineless Republicans I’ll bet.
Capitalism forces you to take responsibility for your welfare.
That is always harder than sitting on your rear end and letting someone take care of you.
With freedom comes responsibility.
You should have heard McDermott from Washington State chastise the witnesses. He should be exiled to Cuba.
I wonder how many liberals realize that this issue is a hair trigger....

I sure hope you're right. However, I think they'll go after her.
We have to stop crying and start demanding.
We have to march in the thousands.
I think a lot of liberals understand how volatile this could be if there is any perception of retaliation against her.
And I think a lot of the liberal women in the press would break ranks and make life miserable for the Obama Administration. Jay Carney probably thinks he has had some tough press conferences, but a room full of wrathful women would make hell seem like a warm snugly blanket compared to what he would be subjected to.
Revolt is coming.
I was impressed and proud of each of these brave patriotic Americans.
I was disgusted with each of the country hating and arrogant Obama loving democrats.
