remember, Tea Party people have several different "camps"...these Tea Party Patriots are one of those camps...
The common ground in this debate is to protect the Full Faith and Credit of the United States. The American people believe that in order to do this the government has to pay the interest on the debt, has to stop using retirees, veterans, and the military as political pawns, and they have to make significant cuts in spending now to alter the course of the spending binge that Washington is having trouble breaking. This will not be easy, but it is necessary for the future of our nation.
To the President, to the Senate, and to the House of Representatives - if you really care about protecting the Full Faith and Credit of the United States, you must first take steps to prove that you care about regaining the Full Faith and Credit of the American people.
Step 1 - Pass the Ensuring the Full Faith and Credit of the United States and Protecting America's Soldiers and Seniors Act.
Step 2 - Significantly cut spending now; not over 10 years - - 10 year spending cuts are meaningless and never come to fruition.
Step 3 - Stop talking about how much you are "reducing the deficit" and start ELIMINATING the deficit.
Step 4 - Do Not Raise the Debt Ceiling
Step 5 - Stop spending more money than you take in.
Step 6 - Stop playing for your party's team and start playing for the American people.
Tea Party Patriots - Call your Representatives and Senators today. Tell them that the Boehner plan does not go far enough (it nearly doubles the national debt in 10 years), and you want them to start taking steps to restore the Full Faith and Credit of the American people and to protect the Full Faith and Credit of the United States.
I posted this at Yahoo:
This is what the Tea Party is really all about:
The Republicans want another housing bubble by 2020. Will people be ready for the predatory attack? Probably not.
For many people, walking away from loans is the only option.
Did you know that the Tea Party leaders, who oppose walking away from the loans, are receiving money from the hedge funds who funded the toxic loans? The hypocrites want to chip away at Dodd-Frank and create another housing bubble.
I agree.
Anybody but the loser serving currently.
You are a true patriot Randy.
Thanks Jim. Coming from you this means....something, I suppose.
That's because you are psycho...er, I mean psychic, Jim.
How's things going for you lately?
You are right, I am a psycho psychic.
Things are good, you?
Just returned from my annual vacation on the beaches of Negril, Jamaica. No problems, mon!
What in the heck is the "full faith and credit of the United States" pray tell?
The Tea Party Patriots would do well to go back to 1776.
It would be lovely if the situation were that simple -- like the TPPs.
One thing I've learned over the past decade is that any bill with a name that sounds like it was developed by a marketing team is probably something designed to rip off average Americans. You could sneak a massive government handout to foreign oil companies in the Ensuring Americans Remain Patriots And Anyone Who Votes Against This Kills Puppies And Hates Apple Pie Act and you'd have millions of idiots claiming their support for the measure.
You've got a great idea for a forum thread there!
Let's see, we've had HOPE with Obama.
This one's got FAITH.
Where's CHARITY and LOVE?
How about the Honk of you Love America Act ???
It's funny how they keep saying "The American people" when in reality the party is comprised almost entirely of drunken, slack-jawed troglodytes.
In silly tricornered hats and wigs, no less.

There is much talk of the formation of a third political party based on the tea party movement. In Florida, a Democratic operative with absolutely no connection to the tea party movement has filed papers to form a third party called the Florida Tea Party. He has issued legal threats against local...

The fatal flaw Republican establishment made is assuming T.E.A.Party Patriots are republicans at the core. If you track down someone familiar with the T.E.A. party you may find republicans. but in California you will just as likely find independent voters. The Establishment gets mad if...

I have been watching the Yahoo boards and people are furious at the Republicans, especially the Tea Party. They are getting the lion's share of the blame for the debt downgrade. Here's why:1. Obama wanted a grand plan. The Republicans rejected it.2. Obama wanted shared sacrifice including taxes for...
