Sounds like a good ole teabagging time. Make sure you bring your hate signs, guns, and don't forget to sign up for the militia. Randy Brogdon will be speaking, right? Oh, good times for sure!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like some sleazy infiltrators have all that covered.

The movement is about smaller government and more accountability - why the rage, Boston? Can't you disagree without demonizing grandma?

[Bostonfan]

Have fun this evening Penny. Make sure to post some pics of the teabagging event so we can all have some laughs. Oh, and again, make sure you don't forget to sign up for the militia. Randy is counting on you!!!

[MadMonk]

I guess he's for higher taxes, more government control, out-of-control debt, corruption and of course government controlled health care.

What does he care? I'm betting he is of the group that isn't paying taxes and is probably being supported by family that does.

[FRISKY]

There sure are a bunch of gun carrying, homophobe, racist, redneck, militia joining, haters out there...and the movement is growing.


34% Say They Or Someone Close To Them Part of Tea Party Movement - Rasmussen Reports

Here is my thought on the Tea Party stuff. Why don't they take this momentum and finally form a viable Third Party? Screw the Dems...Screw the GOP...none of them care what these people really want anyway. Organize, get registered, and start trying to break down this damn two party system. That is the biggest thing. Imagine the US Senate being something like 40 Dem, 35 GOP, and 25 TP. Yes I had GOP lower because I figure most people would break away from them initially.

Just a thought. If you want to make change, get organized, throw the current parties to the side, and start taking their seats.

I hope to god they don't - it would split the vote and the damned liberals would continue their insanity.

at least until someone gets fed up enough to slam a private plane full of fuel into the Capitol Building while in session...

Not necessarily. The liberals are in control because the moderates felt they got boned by Bush for 8 years. So they swung things to the other side. Now they are finding out the other side isn't great either. What better than a new 3rd party option that would take things to be purely basic in forms of government. I have a feeling there would be a notable shift from both parties to the new one.

[gmwise]

The tea party has been hijack by the tea baggers aka,the same bunch who holds up the murderers McVeigh and Nichols as heroes and martyrs, who murder and terrorize the Nation.
Trying to lure more bi polar imbeciles to their seditious group.

I hear what you are saying and as a registered independant, believe me, I am putting my money on that third party. And normally I would agree with you but at this point, I think the democrats in office are so god awful that I wouldn't do anything to remotely raise the risk that those people remain in power.

Eh. The same could be said of the far right radicals that went wacko after 9/11 with the Patriot Act. Yes it was all done to "protect us"...but really it just felt like right after right being taken away as fast as possible. I think we both are in agreement that both parties are severe flawed, need to be reeled in, it is just a matter of time and organization for someone to give them a run for their money. If history has taught us anything, the parties in our country are not mean to last forever and go through significant changes over time. Perhaps we are finally at one of those times with the nation so polarized and fed up.

Did I think Bush was evil and bad? No. He was too easily influenced by the people pulling the strings in the back. Do I think Obama is evil and bad? Not at all. Same deal. The people behind office and in congress are the ones that worry me the most as they actually have the most impact on my life. The president? More or less a figure head that tries to do things as long as congress likes him for that day.

[PennyQuilts]

The biggest problem is that there isn't a check between the executive and legislative branch, at this point, and they are both wacky during bad times that don't have wiggle room for foolishness.

Could always get rid of Presidential elections and let the minority party in congress pick the Prez. That should handle the checks and balances. lol

Im for all-out anarchy. Lets overthrow our government altogether and start up a new more liberal government, much like the kind our constitutional forefathers had envisioned for us, but is sadly being stripped from us one lawful right at a time.

[venture]

Can we just go back to British rule and be done? :-P

[Midtowner]

Nah, it'd more than likely simply force the GOP and the new party to form a coalition government where the GOP beltway establishment would have to compromise with this third party in order to stay in power.

Well, never heard THAT suggestion before! I think I would rather just stick with the electoral college so long as it reflects what the goofy voters want...

Sounds like a damn Klan rally to me.

Expect me at never O'clock

I'm sure there will be uh, no one, who cares.

[ronronnie1]

No one cares about the teabaggers anyway, so yeah, you got that right. Just a bunch of human refuse waving signs because Glenn Beck told them to. Perhaps the teabaggers will bomb another federal building just for kicks.

Surely you're smart enough to avoid that gathering like the plague, right muggs?
