        And, I'm sure that they are still thinking the same thing that they were thinking when they lost their positions. They brought it on themselves, if they are no longer holding an elected position, because it's their own fault that they didn't do something to stop the sh!t going on in Congress, when they had the chance.

        The Tinkerbell Party can enjoy some time for now, but like Republicans and Democrats, their time will be coming soon enough.

    They want Republicans to think they fear the Tea Party, because they know the Tea Party is too extreme to gain support from the moderates in most parts of the country. This is the same reason Obama just ignores the birthers. He knows birthers aren't gaining any traction, and it just makes his opponents look psychotic when they show support for the birthers. Bachmann and Trump have already fallen into this trap.

    The Tea Party and birthers will ensure that Barack Obama gets reelected in 2012.

        Gas prices haven't been this high since the previous administration, lol. I'm not sure what Obama has to do with banking fees, unless you're suggesting the government should step in and interfere with a free market (come on, say it...).

        The pull out from Iraq has been slow but steady. The pull out from Afghanistan will probably take much longer, because there really is no faction strong enough to suppress extremist activities without U.S. support. We're still testing the waters in Libya, mostly just firing missiles from a safe distance. Obama's biggest foreign policy failure is that he hasn't been able to correct the mistakes of the previous administration, and that's frustrating for all of us.

        Like most presidential elections, we'll be voting for the lesser of two evils.

        Who would be better, Michelle Bachman?  How about Trump?  It's sad but Pawlenty is the most viable candidate, but will not get the support from the far right, including the tea party.  After that, who's really left who hasn't already wet the bed?  Newt? Joke.  Palin, COMPLETE Joke; Huckabe?  Looks too much like Gomer Pile to be president. 

        The only real chance that repubs have is misinformation campaigns led by Rove's 527's.  Good thing Scalia, Thomas, Alito, and Roberts led the charge on Citizens United and corporations can dump limitless money into political campaigns. 


        Here is what they don't say about Obama: First 2 years made good on 80% of campaign promises. No president in recent histiry can even come close to boasting that.  Stock market is still doing very well.  Obama is restoring America's place in the world, after it was destroyed by the prior administration.  So really, where has he not shown leadership?

        Now if you want to throw darts at things like gas prices, please do, because we have to ultimately remember the president who made us all think that it was ok to pay $3 a gallon for gas when he left office, after we were used to paying $1.25 when Clinton left.   Oh, yeah, you are against regulation, so regulating futures trading, which is the reason forelevated gas prices, would be off the table, correct? 

        Foreclosures?  Come on, you really don't read do you?  Just check wit the Attorney General of Ohio (who is a republican), who is leading the charge against the banks for credit swaps and robo signing.  That did not start in 2008.  Is Obama also to blame for Bernie Madoff?  After all, with your logical chain it would make sense, right?

            Smart and Bachman or Palin should NEVER be used in the same sentence. 

            It was Bachman who said that the founding fathers fought tirelessly to end slavery, right?  So to her the Revolutionary War was the same thing as the Civil War, or is she jus tmaking her own version of the facts.  The fact is this, the founding fathers owned slaves, and many of them would actually tie their slaves to the Liberty Bell during the Constitutional Convention.  Not a pretty picture, but it's true. 


            Can't forget her trying to tie the Swine Flu to Democratic Administrations, when she said hte last time we had an outbreak was in the 70's during the Carter Administration.  Or her hatred for Gay Marriage (which is on point with what republicans actually want to accomplish (right there with stripping a woman of her right to choose) This lady is either crazy or dumb as a box of rocks. 

            Now on to Palin, who with here x-ray vision sees Putin rearing his evil head...She is a flat out fabricator.  I think she is truth challenged.  Death Panels? Made up. She's also the one that says the real America is captured in small towns. 

            I really am not trying to knock either of these women.... they do it to themselves.

            What are the real counter points?  The Republicans are about 6-8 weeks away from having to actually have a plan that works in real life.  If they don't seize on that opportunity, and do it well, they are done for 2012 at every level of government.  You already see the Christie back lash in NJ, WI and OH will have their own set of ramifications as well.  Boner, oh, meant Boehner is absolutely clueless, and has zero control over his caucus, and McConnell is powerless.  So what's left? 

            Plus Obama is leading these folks down a dredded path, one that ends with the Repubs forced to confront their stances on policy iniatives.  That will be a point of no return for them.  Right now we are talking deficits, so Obama comprimised to extend the tax cuts that THEY wanted, even though it will cost $700B.  Let's see if they will actually vote to do the responsible thing and raise taxes or come to grips with the notion that trickle down economics doesn't work.  They are getting to that point now.

        I totally agree.  It seems like he and other democrats are intentionally bankrupting us with their big government.  We need a Rand Paul or Marco Rubio in the white house.  Working Americans have been sacrificing for a long time, we can take more.  It's time for corporate America and the non working class to step up.

    I wonder if both major parties are missing the message. When a 3rd party (or movement) gets this much attention, it's because a lot of citizens believe the major parties haven't been doing their job properly.

    The Republicans have been spouting conservative spending while running up huge deficits on their watch. The national debt tripled under Reagan.

    The Dems seem to think that not being Republican is enough of a platform.

    The tea party may be a ragtag bunch of extremists, but the 2 parties should get a simple message: Many of the voters aren't happy with the status quo and they won't likely accept the idea of giving all power to one party or the other -- as a reward for gridlocking the gov't. That only lets those in power enrich and entrench themselves.

    The tea party itself is too extremist to catch on with most people but it's the canary in the coal mine that's being ignored.

      It's interesting why the Tea Party is often avoided by both parties. Democrats avoid confronting it because they oppose the policies it advocates and a vote for a Tea Party candidate is often a vote that would have otherwise gone to a mainstream Republican. Republicans avoid it because they know that in much of the country a move toward the Tea Party is seen as a move toward the far right, and it can cause them to lose the moderate, undecided vote.

      If the Tea Party is able to grow, it's going to force the hands of Republicans. At some point they'll have to decide to either embrace it and hope they don't lose ground in the middle, or openly attack it and hope the Tea Partiers lack the resolve to fight back against a Republican if it means handing an election to a Democrat.

      Good post.  We do need new blood, but the Tea Party is a complete mess.  It's impossible to have a real dialouge with them.  Really is.  If I hear, "America has to tighten its belt belt, Americans are doing it at home, so the Federal Government has to do the same", I think I am going to jump off of the Capitol dome.  Look, America tightend their belt to the last hole back in 2000 when we passed the largest tax cuts in history.  Tax cuts are essentially a revenue reduction to the government.  Then we fight 2 unfunded wars; pass a windfall prescription drug plan (that was also unfunded) then extend the revenue reduction (there were 2 extensions of the tax cuts), and now we want to talk deficits, and about cutting services?  What a joke.

      There have been other parties around for a long time. Independent, Green, Libertarian, Constitution.....

      Problem is, they aren't big enough, and the Dem and Repub national committee's usually keep them out of debates.

      Tea-Party got attention because of the Big Money behind it.
      AND the media!!

      For example; I heard on the radio...can't remember what city, but there was a HUGE pro-union/anti-Tea-Party rally somewhere, and it got NO coverage whatsoever.
      Meanwhile, a 100 Baggers show up, and it makes national news...all channels, all outlets.

    The republican party's relationship with the tea party is, as the Russians say, "Like having a wolf by the ears." Who has who?

    The moderates have a delicate balancing act to maintain if the conservative wing is going to stay on board. On the other hand, you can just see the democrat's political ads showing the circus atmosphere of teabagger rallies, including misspelled signs, racist remarks and add some pickin' from "Deliverance."

    Remember, that's what political ads are these days, a drive-by shooting of half truths and fabrications.

    Tea party? The democrats best friend.

              America is racist by definition.  There is no larger unspoken Anerican credo, than "exploit darker skinned people at every opportunity".  You can't refute that.  Whether is was the killing of the natives for their land, or slavery, or the fact that the last time we sent a ground troop to a country that was primarily cacuasian, was WWII.

              We ask where are the jobs?  :ppl no further than a corner of the earth where American corporations can get non-whites to work for pennies on the dollar.  Wasn't that the underlying reason for NAFTA and CAFTA?  If not please enlighten me. 

              Now moving to your Census based question, first it doesn't speak to racism, rather you seem to be saying that since America allows non-whites to emmigrate then we are not racist as a country.  Well that assertion is flawed.  If you want to proport this, then you have to bring the issuance of visas and political asylum into the conversation.  The problem here, is this makes your point more moot.  If you go country by country, who was granted political asylum the most?  Indivicuals from the former Soviet Union.  Who gets the most education visas, India, who gets the most work visas, Ireland.  So again, your point of is moot.  Read a book.  Those words actually come together to mean something after a few pages. 

              There is no bigger cop out than to say America is not a racist country.

                Ground troops were sent to Bosnia/Herzegovina to stop the Christians from committing genocide against Muslims.  That was back in the 1990's.  Besides the above, where else would the US need to send troops in which the country is mostly white.  Canada, Austrailia and Western Europe are the only places I can think off that have communites that are primarily white and they generally speaking do not commit genocide or terrorists acts against their own or others.  So  why would we need to intervene?

      Constitutionally limited government, except on social issues, where they seem to want the government to be an extension of the Baptist church. Also, Constitutional rights only apply to Christians and Jews, but not Muslims, Atheists and many others.

      Free markets, except where they can benefit from government intervention. Farm subsidies are about as anti-free market as you can get, but I have yet to see the Tea Party protest them.

        No one realistically thinks the defense budget can't be cut. Keep in mind the nations defense is essential to maintaining our freedom and is an enumerated power.

        The constitution guarantees freedom of religion. Sure there are christians in the tea party but that doesn't mean they want to impose those values on all.

        Obama just renewed ethanol subsidies. This was for farmers partgicularly in Iowa to garner support for the elections. I don't think you can say the tea party is for subsidies but you can say that the republicans and democrats agree on them.

        Fiscal reponsibility also means a fair tax policy and spending in line with revenues. No one is advocating for the rich.

      I wouldn't go as far as extremeist, because you actually have to believe in something to be extreme.  The Tea party is the bi-product of the American Instant Gradification fixation.  Their lack of depth, or real knowledge of the issues will sink them before anything else can.

      1. Their campaigns were funded by foreign bank managers, and secretly.
      2. They have almost the exact same political platform as that of the Ku Klux Klan.
      3. Openly calling for armed insurrection and showing up to rallies armed with automatic rifles is also something I consider extreme.

    If anyone is serious about budget cutting, it's pretty obvious where you have to go.

    1. Military spending

    The middle east will have to be left to find it's own way. Countries like Japan and Germany are capable of their own self defense.

    2. Entitlements

    There needs to be a "means test" for Soc. Sec., Medicare, etc.


    Proposed cuts are always easier if someone else will make all the sacrifices. Addressing the above issues can't be done by cutting NPR or raising (someone else's) taxes. None of this is new -- it's been discussed for years. Discussed with no one willing to risk the political fallout from doing what must be done.

    From Mar 3, 2011:

    • Last month, President Obama has proposed ending big oil subsidies.
    • This week, Congressional Democrats voted to end big oil subsidies.
    • And this week, House Republicans unanimously voted to protect big oil subsidies. (3.6 Billion dollars).

    Oil and gas get even more of your money through tax incentives, deductions, depreciation and investment credits. Those total about $3.6 billion a year, according to the Administration.

          Bush did not cause 9/11 that is FACT! the AFGHAN war is justifiable...Fact OSAMA Al-Quada
          Iraq was a monumental mistake which I have always said!
          The housing was a democratic mistake ...Barney Frank and DODDS.
          they pressured banks to make loans to people who could not afford them! If you actually looked it up you will see this is also fact and Clinton started it. And I loved Clinton! I actually voted for Hillary in the primary.

          as for Obama, He apologizes and makes the US look weak! epic fail with health-care! disastrous and if you actually read it and agree with it you need to go back to school. Yes a few things are good and what is needed but overall it is one big disaster.

          His foreign policy is the worst this man does not have a clue! Hillary was quitting because he is so weak. Gates will be stepping down very shortly you will see, the man has a lot of integrity and is fed up and does not want to make the president look even more stupid! look at his statements from the last 4-6 weeks. He bows to Muslim leaders!
          his economic plan did not work! unemployment went up even though 700B was injected!
          everyone sees him taking vacations when important matters are at hand. then to top it off his wife has to invite 40-50 people along on the vacation while people are struggling here.
          the man is a liar and wants to change what America stands by. he gives money to south America to drill but not smart enough to allow drilling here to bring down the cost of oil! 2012 can not come fast enough

                Not dumb becaue i say so, you don't need me for that, you do a great job on your own.  Is it a disgrace for the American President to bow to the Pope?  Didn't think so.  It is a custom, and when you go to someone elses homeland you abide by their custom.  So that is flat out some weak stuff. 

                He could be my boy, but it makes your skin crawl that he has 2 ivy league degrees, and was a millionaire before running for president. Say it, you hate him why... we almostgot to the real issue. 

                Who said anything about Hilary being wrong?  You said she was leaving, and my response was you were wrong.   So that is just made up, but typical.  Believe me , for sheer self preservation, you should feel glad that there is a social safety-net.  I already ran down the socialist thing in recent posts, so please provide me with substance.  Because again, your argument is weak. 

                What does WMD have to do with Bush?  You can't even be serious about that.    Wasn't that the initial reason to go after Sadam?  That was a $3T lie.  Also that lie cost thousands of lives.  Bush had nothing to do with that though, huh?  I can already hear it, but, the US was not attacked on Obama's watch.  The US economy didn't crash on Obama's watch, nor did the housing bubble, nor did Bear Sterns collapse.  So you might want to get a demo version of Time Map, and create a timeline of events before you proport such BS. 

                Last elsection, was decides by Citizens United.  Endless 527 (you probably don't know what those are either) funds went into misinformation campaigns.  Thats all.  The American People, as evidenced herein, are not engaged in the political process.  The Repubs did a great job of putting together soundbites for our intellectually challengef populace.  That is what happened in the last election.  Also in mid-terms turnout is always much lower, so we are not talking "The American People".    Now, again, give me one viable candidate,,  You say anyone, because you just want Obama out of office, but you still have great difficulty artivulating exactly why.

Many admitted to not knowing anything about policies of Obama but voting because he was black. is that not racist? 7% of blacks did not vote for Obama does that make them racist? Just because I do not like him for his way of thinking and policies make me a racist? anyone who believed him when he said he did not know reverend Wright spoke like that and went to that church for 20 years and dedicated a book to him is a LIAR!!! Wright preaches Anti-American BS and I personally do not think we should have a president who believes like that! and his actions show this...the reason why he apologizes for America, The bowing to a Muslim Leader. Not taking the initiative in Libya because like his book states he does not want people to think we are invading a country. It is crystal clear what he believes and that is not what this country is about. who does he surround himself with? all socialist, admitted socialist...why would you associate and make people who you do not agree with be part of your team? again what does bush have to do with Obama? all you do is Blame bush for Obama's failure. I said Bush did wrong with Iraq and Have been blasting Bush for years! I hate Bush!!!

                    Again, and please let this be for the last time, America was never set up to be a pure democracy, but a society that weaved different social structures for the betterment of it's peopls.  For instance, at one time regular folk were not able to vote for Senators,, nor directly for the President.  Thus, it pretty much made us a democratic republic.  Then, when Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations proved that it was not the cure all for America, we began, as a country to espouse some forms of socialism.  Again, not in it's purest sense, but I don'tthink you'd know the difference anyway.  This is out of the moral (because the country was built on good ole Christian values) obligation to take care of it's people.  The standard first came out of Britian with Elizabethian poor laws (we can go for days on that too, but it pretty miuch said this, help your less fortunate, but they should not receive in aid more than the lowest wage erner).  Then domestically things really got bad when good old Herbie (who could be considered the grandfather of the tea party) drove us into Depression.  The only things that helped recover our country were government intervention and WWII.

    Libelous Left Shows True Colors during Wisconsin Protests

    Threats. Violence. Racism. Extremist rhetoric. Liberal activists are doing exactly what the Left and the media falsely accused the tea partiers of doing.

    In the April issue of Townhall Magazine, Mary Katharine Ham takes on the hypocrisy of the American Left that loves to falsely accuse conservatives of violent rhetoric but then engages in it frequently. They are the two-faced liberals who make up the modern progressive movement, and they have brought about what Ham calls "The Swift Death of the New Tone."


    Andrew Breitbart combats the mainstream media and it's libelous antics in his new book, Righteous Nation, He explains that the Tea Party had successfully defended the attacks by the media and the Democratic Party and would become the machine that radically altered the American political landscape. "What had started exclusively as an anti-intrusive, limited government, political movement had naturally evolved into something more all-encompassing and cultural. With Tea Partiers stealing from the left-wing playbook, conservatives had begun to learn the value of showing up, being vocal, and acting local, NOT threatening, violent, or racist." Read all about it when you order Townhall Magazine and receive your free copy of "Righteous Nation."


    A child's handwritten sign that reads "We hate Scott Wacre" is seen taped to a wall in the rotunda during protests against budget cuts proposed by Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, R, at the state Capitol in Madison. The "new tone" the Left has been demanding from conservatives was nowhere to be seen during the union protests. (Reuters/ Darren Hauck)

    Remember the days, in August of 2009, when conservatives merely raising their voices at health care town halls portended the sure destruction of the Republic? There were large numbers of conservatives gathering peacefully (and, yes, sometimes angrily) to express their discontent with Obama's health care law. The media decided these protests were threatening and dangerous on their face.

    The mere gathering together of conservatives critical of the president caused Chris Matthews to sputter and Rachel Maddow to whine about the closed-minded, racist and surely violent crowds that would be the undoing of the Union. The only problem was there wasn't much violence to speak of.

    During the most heated month of the health care uprising, when more than 500 town halls took place over one month across the country, there were exactly 10 instances of documented violence. Most of them were confined to the ripping of signs and minor tussles (though there were a handful of punches thrown), and seven of 10 incidents were perpetrated by ObamaCare supporters on protesters, according to photos, police reports and witnesses.


    Nonetheless, the media kept up its "Climate of Hate" narrative through 2010, tsk-tsking over the tone of protest posters, often erroneously blaming tea partiers for Lyndon Larouche activists' Hitler signs and generally making a giant, scary deal out of the least errant word from any right-leaning protester in any place at any time.

    There was evidence in 2009 that the stringent requirements for polite protest were not going to apply to everyone. Concurrent with the health care protests that made the media to tremble with their ferocity, the international community held the G20 gathering in Pittsburgh. There, a collection of liberal and anarchist protesters did approximately $50,000 of damage to local businesses, and 190 of them were arrested for blocking traffic and rolling trash bins and throwing rocks at police.

    The CBS headline for that story? "Police fire gas on G20 protesters."

    By 2011, the "violent right-wingers" narrative took its most irresponsible turn yet and blamed Sarah Palin's political speech for the shooting of Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in Tucson, Ariz. Giffords is recovering, praise God, after being shot in the head by a mentally ill man who had been fixated on her since at least 2007. To this day, there is no evidence that he was motivated by anyone’s political rhetoric, martial words or imagery. The 28-page federal indictment of Jared Lee Loughner does not mention Palin's now-infamous crosshairs map as a cause of the incident because it wasn't.



    Nonetheless, the country was called by all of national media to a time of soul-searching about our "tone." There should be a new tone, they said, and President Barack Obama echoed that in his Tucson speech saying our rhetoric should "honor" those who had been killed while engaging in our democratic process in that Safeway parking lot.

    Several right-leaning pundits joined the call to civility, giving credence to the idea that rhetoric and Loughner's crime were somehow connected -- among them David Frum, Joe Scarborough and Jeb Bush.

    But the new tone didn't last long. After all, it could last only until it was necessary for liberals to protest again, at which point all the rules imposed on conservative activists would be swiftly jettisoned in favor of celebrating the "passion" of those who carry Hitler signs for "justice."

    "Nearly half of all Americans have an unfavorable view of the Tea Party movement, putting it in the same company as the Democratic and Republican parties, according to a new national poll.

    A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Wednesday indicates that 32% of the public have a favorable view of the two-year-old anti-tax movement, which also calls for less government spending and a more limited role for the federal government in our lives.

    The 32% favorable rating is down five points from December.
    "

    The key stat is the trend. Nearly 2% per month are learning how the teabaggers are an unwitting and generally witness front organization for the American aristocracy. The new Ryan Plan shreds any illusions by simultaneously cutting taxes for the top tier while balancing the budget on the backs of Seniors by eliminating Medicare. 

    The expectation of the GOP seems to be that the weakening conservative momentum will still carry old folks, who can't see or hear too well, past the fine print of the new deal which casts (non-wealthy) seniors into a miserable old age without any security.

        More profit for those at the top.
        An unbalanced weight....and it's on our shoulders.

        And furthermore....*SIGH*! Been there--Done that!

    See how easy it is to ignore propagandists?  I do not care if they get paid or not, it is just so easy, just ignore.

      If you think LaLo is boring, try Olyhooch for the laugh factor.

    Is it right that 400 people control 50% of the nations wealth?  It's legal, but is it right.  Also, is it in the nation's best interest. I am not suggesting that their is a salary cap on CEO pay like there is in football, but I do wonder. 

    You see, those that control the money get to make the rules (The Supreme Court just assured us of that with Texas No Limit Campaign contributions).  And, eventually the teachers, the firemen, the public servants who have to beg and plead for a decent wage while the aristocracy have money to burn becomes disheartened.  Just ask Marie Antoinette. 

    I think most people want what is fair.  Most people do not want any lazy person who is unwilling to work or any multi-billion dollar company receive money from the government at tax time. 
    Most people want a system that rewards those who take risks, but most of the CEO's of today's companies were not risk takers, they were lucky.  They hit the lottery when they were appointed by their friends the board of irectors.  So, why should their income be 200 times that of an average Joe. Are they 200 times more valuable to their company?  Would someone do just as well with a multiple of say 10 times an average worker.  Remember that each time a CEO gets rich, Joe Blow has to pay for that each time he buys the product. 

    If the Tea-Bones are not for the wealthy (which seems to be BS) then they should make sure everyone knows they stand with the working class.  I have no problem with smaller government, but don't be hypocritical and say we will balance the budget by giving the wealthiest Americans a pass on their taxes.  The more we take from everyone to balance the budget today, the less we need to do this tomorrow.  Rip off the band-aid.
