Does anyone know when the US Chamber of Commerce changed its logo so that it resembles the Obama logo? The similarities are at least as striking as those between the Obama logo and Pepsi.

Let's just say there's 1 million Tea Partiers willing to donate $200 each.

Chamber of Commerce will have to dig deep to equal the $200 million the TP could easily raise.

The Chamber of Communism has aligned itself with the god of this world.

Secure the borders or forget it. I wish the very rich in this country would decide whether they are capitalists or socialists. If you are capitalists then support capitalism and if you are socialist then be ready to pay your high taxes as you so richly deserve to. You can't have it both ways.

“In primaries and in the general election, we will support candidates who want to work within the legislative process to solve the nation’s problems and who understand that business is not the problem, business is a big part of the solution,” he said during his annual State of American Business address.”

How is this an attack on the Tea Party? Claiming that it is against the Tea Party is just another attempt to create division inside the GOP. Any elected person HAS to work “within the legislative process”.

It's been my experience that Chambers of Commerce are usually a bunch of wishy-washy pansies.

I used to own a small computer store. I remember how fast the local chamber of commerce was to roll out the welcome mat to Sam's Club, and how bad the ass kissing was.

I wonder how many of them Sam's Club ran out of business too? Probably a lot of them by now, as that was in 95.

How are unions going to respond to all that cheap labor?

If we need these ‘workers’ so bad, why do we have such high unemployment?? Maybe they just want the newbies who will work a lot cheaper.

This organization is traitorous and unAmerican. Cheap labor is all they care about.

"In primaries and in the general election, we will support candidates who want to work within the legislative process to solve the nation's problems and who understand that business is not the problem, business is a big part of the solution,"

Hm. Sounds to me like he's throwing the gauntlet down on The GOP-e.

The national Chamber of Commerce ceased to represent the intrests of small business years ago. They depend on their funding from large corporations that do huge amounts of business with the government. Just follow the bucks and their political actions are easily understood.

I’m confused?

Isn’t that how the Tea Party functions as well...within the bounds of the legislative and Constitutional processes?

He makes it sound like we’re outside those boundaries, when in reality we are well within in them and know how to actually EXERCISE THOSE RIGHTS.

The US Chamber of Commerce is just an organization.

Just because its name includes the word 'commerce' doesn't actually mean it is in favor of commerce, any more than 'Planned Parenthood' endorses parenthood or 'Southern Poverty Law Center' advocates rule of law.

Every communist dictatorship had People's or democratic or Republics as a part of their name, and in every case it was deception.

Marxism/socialism/communism/Progressivism are branches of the same false religion, opposed to the Lordship of Christ and inspired by Satan. All Satanic movements lie to win. It is their nature.

So, as the US Chamber of Commerce leans left, it makes perfect sense for them to go against the very principles they once stood for, while using their previous reputation to deceive the unwary.

> “That’s thanks to last year’s government shutdown, which exasperated business groups and other traditional allies of the GOP. Now groups like the Chamber are making plans to oppose Tea Party upstarts.”

The shutdown “exasperated” which business groups? The ones feeding at the federal trough? I think YES.

Much of big business survives due to its partnership with big government. The last thing they want is free market competition.
