    Those are myths made up by Liberals. (Stop the hate, Libs)

    If you'd like to see the Platform of the Tea Party, you can go to any of their sites (or remain ignorant).
    Basically,
    - fiscal responsibility
    - less bureaucratic, less obtrusive government
    - stop wasteful spending
    - adherence to the rule of law (Constitution)
    - balancing the budget
    - less government interference in the 'free' market

    And for this platform, you demonize a grassroots movement?

    This is why I believe you almost have to be evil or woefully ignorant to be a Liberal.
    I don't care if Tea Party members are creatures from another galaxy.
    Their political platform is all-American.

    More signs that you might be a member of the T-Boogers:

    Education is learning what you didn't even know you didn't know.

    A Native American grandfather talking to his young grandson tells the boy he has two wolves inside of him struggling with each other. The first is the wolf of peace, love and kindness. The other wolf is fear, greed and hatred. "Which wolf will win, grandfather?" asks the young boy. "Whichever one I feed," is the reply.

    You have to believe that those privileged from birth achieve success all on their own.

    You have to be against all government programs, but expect Social Security checks on time.

    You have to believe...everything Rush Limbaugh says.

    You have to believe God hates homosexuality, but loves the death penalty.

    You have to believe that pollution is OK as long as it makes a profit.

    You have to believe Newt Gingrich and Henry Hyde were really faithful husbands.

    You love Jesus and Jesus loves you and, by the way, Jesus shares your hatred for AIDS victims, homosexuals, and President Clinton.

    You have to believe government has nothing to do with providing police protection, national defense, and building roads.

    You have to believe a poor, minority student with a disciplinary history and failing grades will be admitted into an elite private school with a $1,000 voucher.

    Tea party has much in common with occupy Wall Street. It's the MSM led by war profiteering debt money banksters trying to divide the nation. Some of their guys also claimed to be the leaders of the tea party, while the tea party is not a hierarchical party but a movement of individuals with different views, but mostly agreeing on the following (compare with Occupy Wall Street):

    NO BANK BAILOUTS FOR WALL STREET
    Sound money
    Purchasing power back to local communities instead of the corrupt federal government
    Restore the Civil liberties of the Constitution (no patriot act)
    Stop wasteful spending
    Take power back from the Washington Den of Corruption
    Restore liberty

    Why the Tea Party Sucks.....

    1. The Tea Party sucks because they are backed by big business and the rich, but run around acting like they are representing the people of the United States.
    2. The Tea Party sucks because they put politicians in Washington, DC that have no idea how to govern.
    3. The Tea Party sucks because many of their members are racist and hate mongers that when confronted, will immediately accuse others of racism as a strategy to deflect their own racist actions.
    4. The Tea Party sucks because they have moved the Republican Party so far right that anyone with any sense, wouldn’t in good conscious, be a member anymore.
    5. The Tea Party sucks because they forced members of Congress to sign some stupid no tax pledge; protecting the rich while claiming to be representing the people of the United States (How many times have you heard a Tea Party member say they are protecting their children and grand children. Right).
    6. The Tea Party sucks because they have hijacked the U.S. Congress to the point where nothing constructive can get done.
    7. The Tea Party sucks because their idiotic position on reducing the U.S. debt blocked all meaningful legislation from passing and caused Standard and Poor's to downgrade The U.S. credit rating from AAA to AA.

Hopefully you'll find a way out one day.....until then, just remember, the same policies I opposed with Jimmy Carter are the same ones I oppose with Barack Obama. If Jimmy Carter is black, then go ahead and call me a racist, the term is meaningless thanks to the libtards!

They put a picture of his wife on the web and changed it to look like a monkey. I don't know, but what do you call people who do things like that. I understand you call yourself a Christian?

    I am a war vetran who promised to fight terrorists both foreign and now domestic. Tell me Bubba, are you saying there is no irrational hatred of Obama or racism that seems to anger you so? You don't believe that there is an all out war against the people of this country, or that this economic abyss the right-wing crazies created does not exist? What specifically got you all upset, because I exposed the ideology of your group of misfits. Moreover, since I confronted and exposed Irrationa hatred and racism coming directly from your party, that makes me a racist and having no rational thought? That's really funny. So anyone who presents the facts, truth, and reality is a raving lunitic? Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!

    I know, I know Bubba, I have studied the tactics of the radical right wing, and you just gave excellent examples of them. You lie to yourself, and when confronted and exposed, you go into deep denial and are forced to contradict anything that conflicts with your lies. Your just trying to destroy the message and the messenger, but it wasn't the Democrats who just created an economic crisis that rivals the Great Depression in scope. What specifically has your group of gaping primates done to help America, or the American people to fix this mess your group created? What exactly does DEBT PRODUCING TAX CUTS TO YOUR FILTHY RICH ARISTOCRATIC MASTERS do to help fix the economy or create jobs? You maggots scream about the national debt and increase it significantly with these TAX Cuts to the Filthy Rich.

    All we have seen so far is OBSTRUCTION, HOLDING THIS COUNTRY HOSTAGE TWICE, FILIBUSTERING AND BLOCKING ALL JOB CREATION, DEADLOCKING CONGRESS SO NOTHING OF SUBSTANCE IS PASSED, AND DOMESTIC TERRORISM! We have a middle class crises in this country, and the only thing the Republicans seem interested in is destruction and chaos, and declaring a war on America and most of our citizens, and I'm the enemy? Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha! Try explaining that Bubba Monkey?

    I have studied conservatism as far back in history as it goes, and they have always been on the wrong side of everything. Republicans/Conservatives, and T-Boogers have great insecurities, a sense of helplessness, guilt, and the inability to effect change. I never dared to be radical when young for fear it would make me conservative when old. The radical invents the views. When he has worn them out, the conservative adopts them. You know, one fifth of the people are against everything all the time, and these are the conservatives.

    Conservatism in every place and time is founded on deception, and in particular, rational thought is an evil thought. The opposite of conservatism is democracy, and contempt for democracy is a constant thread in the history of conservative argument. The central conservative argument: freedom is impossible unless the common people internalize aristocratic domination. Liberalism is a movement of conscience, yet conservatism has taken to acting as if they owned the language of conscience. Conservatives continually twists the language of conscience into its opposite. It has no choice: conservatism is unjust, and cannot survive except by pretending to be the opposite of what it is.

    Conservatism has opposed rational thought for thousands of years. What most people know nowadays as conservatism is basically a public relations campaign aimed at persuading them to lay down their capacity for rational thought. Conservatives frequently attempts to destroy rational thought, for example, by using language in ways that stand just out of reach of rational thought or rebuttal. Conservatism have used a wide variety of methods to destroy reason throughout history. Many of these methods, such as the suppression of popular literacy (Public education), are incompatible with the modern economy. Once common people started becoming educated, more sophisticated methods of domination were required. Thus the invention of public relations, which is a kind of rationalized irrationality.

    The main idea of public relations is the distinction between "messages" and "facts". Messages are things you want people to believe. A message is therefore vague enough that it is very difficult to refute by rational means. People in politics refer to messages as
    "strategies" and people who devise these strategies are known as strategists. One should think of their messages as a kind of pipeline: a steady stream of facts selected (twisted or fabricated) to fit the message. Contrary facts are of course ignored. The goal is what the professionals call "message repetition". This provides right-wing activists with something to confuse their adversaries" come up with new facts to fit the conservative leader's chosen message. Having become established in this way, messages must also be continually intertwined with one another (abortion and the denial of contraception to women).

    Public relations aims to break down reason and replace it with mental associations. They try to associate "us" with good things and "them" with bad things There is "A Key Mechanism of Control" in the language alteration or destruction. It is advised that Republicans/Conservatives and T-Boogers associate themselves with words like "building", "dream", "freedom", "learn", "light", "preserve", success", and "truth", while associating opponents with words and phrases like "bizarre". "decay", "ideological", "lie", "machine", "pathetic", "traitors", "Socialists", "Death Panels", "Muslim", "Big Government", and "JOB KILLING Health Care Reform". The strategy here is a kind of cognitive surgery: systematically creating and destroying mental associations with little regard for the truth. People who think this way cannot even conceptualize truth.

    Another tool they use in the destruction of language is through projection. Projection is a psychological notion; it roughly means attacking someone by falsely claiming that they are attacking you (Santorum calling liberals the elites.). Reason occurs mostly through the medium of language, and so the destruction of reason requires the destruction of language. American conservatism institutionalized public relation methods of politics on a large scale, and used these methods in a savage campaign of delegitimizing democratic institutions. Conservatism runs on ideologies that bear only a tangential relationship to reality.

    Conservatives are all fundamentalists with a top dressing of chaos and destruction. That is why they are the stupidest of Conservatives, T-Boogers, and reactionary in politics and the most bigoted of obstructionists and domestic terrorists. When it comes to getting their hate on they are all of the same opinion: stop it, lie about it, distort it, obstruct it, flog it, dynamite it, and stamp the truth right out of it.

    Conservatism is the domination of society by an aristocracy (The filthy Rich). Conservatism is incompatible with democracy, prosperity, and civilization in general. It is a destructive system of inequality and prejudice that is founded on deception and has no place in the modern world. For thousands of years, conservatism was universally understood as being in opposition to democracy, and the destruction of reason.

    Conservatives do not trust the intellect or the will of the people. Conservatism calls for us to surrender to an acknowledged aristocracy of those with great wealth, leadership abilities, power and cunning. Free people will never let that happen.

    Great, as you need all the new life you can get. I know, you keep saying that but you don't seem to articulate or prove what your saying. Who am I a racist to? And please pontificate about my hatred as hatred is such a wasted emotion. Bubba, I don't hate you, it's just that I find you so damn insignificant.

    Your welcome, and if you ever need me to hold your hand a walk you through your scary parts, I'm always here to assist.

    I know you don't hate me because we are becoming best of friends. Aren't you having the same fun as I am? What specifically do you feel sorry for me about? I love and appreciate your concern, and no I still have a firm grip on the rails, but thank you for being concerned. Oh, and if you grab a bull by the back leg, it is always smarter to just let him go.

    What I write half-wit is facts, truth, and reality,and what I don't deal in is Republican lies, conspiracy theories, and distortions of the truth.I always encourage my adversaries to provide the facts that what I say is a lie, and I extend that courtesy to you also.

    If you see facts and the truth as WAR and PEACE, then that seems to be your conundrum to deal with. I tend to think of it as confrontation and exposure, but your more than welcome to see it any way you desire. Your bullsh*t is the conservative's art of trying to make the idiotic sound sensible. It is truth that really irritates you Bubba Monkey.

    What specifically do you think you got into my head pretty good about, and what specifically is your rendition of reality Please provide me with some comic relief? So far I haven't seen any reality come out of your mouth, so please educate me on Republican reality?

What most people know nowadays as conservatism is basically a public relations campaign aimed at persuading them to lay down their capacity for rational thought. Conservatives frequently attempts to destroy rational thought, for example, by using language in ways that stand just out of reach of rational thought or rebuttal. Conservatism have used a wide variety of methods to destroy reason throughout history. Many of these methods, such as the suppression of popular literacy (Public education), are incompatible with the modern economy. Once common people started becoming educated, more sophisticated methods of domination were required. Thus the invention of public relations, which is a kind of rationalized irrationality.

    The main idea of public relations is the distinction between "messages" and "facts". Messages are things you want people to believe. A message is therefore vague enough that it is very difficult to refute by rational means. People in politics refer to messages as
    "strategies" and people who devise these strategies are known as strategists. One should think of their messages as a kind of pipeline: a steady stream of facts selected (twisted or fabricated) to fit the message. Contrary facts are of course ignored. The goal is what the professionals call "message repetition". This provides right-wing activists with something to confuse their adversaries" come up with new facts to fit the conservative leader's chosen message. Having become established in this way, messages must also be continually intertwined with one another (abortion and the denial of contraception to women).

    Public relations aims to break down reason and replace it with mental associations. They try to associate "us" with good things and "them" with bad things There is "A Key Mechanism of Control" in the language alteration or destruction. It is advised that Republicans/Conservatives and T-Boogers associate themselves with words like "building", "dream", "freedom", "learn", "light", "preserve", success", and "truth", while associating opponents with words and phrases like "bizarre". "decay", "ideological", "lie", "machine", "pathetic", "traitors", "Socialists", "Death Panels", "Muslim", "Big Government", and "JOB KILLING Health Care Reform". The strategy here is a kind of cognitive surgery: systematically creating and destroying mental associations with little regard for the truth. People who think this way cannot even conceptualize truth.

    Another tool they use in the destruction of language is through projection. Projection is a psychological notion; it roughly means attacking someone by falsely claiming that they are attacking you (Santorum calling liberals the elites.). Reason occurs mostly through the medium of language, and so the destruction of reason requires the destruction of language. American conservatism institutionalized public relation methods of politics on a large scale, and used these methods in a savage campaign of delegitimizing democratic institutions. Conservatism runs on ideologies that bear only a tangential relationship to reality.

    Conservatives are all fundamentalists with a top dressing of chaos and destruction. That is why they are the stupidest of Conservatives, T-Boogers, and reactionary in politics and the most bigoted of obstructionists and domestic terrorists. When it comes to getting their hate on they are all of the same opinion: stop it, lie about it, distort it, obstruct it, flog it, dynamite it, and stamp the truth right out of it.

    Conservatism is the domination of society by an aristocracy (The filthy Rich). Conservatism is incompatible with democracy, prosperity, and civilization in general. It is a destructive system of inequality and prejudice that is founded on deception and has no place in the modern world. For thousands of years, conservatism was universally understood as being in opposition to democracy, and the destruction of reason.

    Conservatives do not trust the intellect or the will of the people. Conservatism calls for us to surrender to an acknowledged aristocracy of those with great wealth, leadership abilities, power and cunning. Free people will never let that happen.

    A great many conservatives like you think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices.

    Conservative politics... have always been the systematic organization of hatreds.


    People who think like a conservative cannot even conceptualize truth.
    Your edification is learning what you didn't even know you didn't know.Your fraud and falsehood only dreads examination. Truth invites it.

    I wish I had a lower I.Q., so that I could enjoy your company.

    Was the ground cold when you slithered out this morning?

    Mr. Smith
    At no point in your rambling, incoherent response, were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone here is now dumber for having read it!

    You remind me of a retarded bully, nobody really takes you seriously, but you think they do. Seriously, you have a mental disorder.......and I'm not JUST talking about being a blind, ignorant, progressive - there's something much more concerning going on here.

    But keep on going, this is fun watching you embarrass yourself.

    Most of those I confront and expose their lies, conspiracy theories and distortions of the truth seem to throw the same hissy-fit that your now throwing, and I share your pain as your lies, conspiracy theories and distortions of the truth are impossible to find facts in support. Was their something specifically I said that got you so pissed off as I can hold your hand and help you through the scary parts your having to deal with? if I had your belief system, I guess I would always be angry too.

    What specifically is your ideology and dogma, and where do you get your information as I noticed you avoid facts, truth, and reality. Just know that I have this big old heart and can forgive you for your mental disorder.


    Wow you must really be pissed as now your calling me a retarded bully, but I forgive you and your intellectually vacant brain. do you realize how much pain your causing me my friend, as I have big tears streaming down my face right now? I know your in a lot of pain and suffering right now, so is there a particular subject that you fell very strong on that you would like to share with your old friend? You know that I wish I had a lower IQ so I could enjoy your company and maybe understand why your feeling so down on yourself.

    I really don't try to make anybody take me seri...

    I really don't try to make anybody take me seriously, but some do, because my mission is just to confront and expose lies, conspiracy theories, and distortions of the truth. That is not a teaching moment or attempt to change the minds or for the benefit of those who distort the truth. Reall, I don't do it for the benefit of the lying maggots, but it is an exposing mission for those who want to deal in common sense, facts, truth and reality. I do know that, that really discombobulates those who have this mental illness where they think their lies, conspiracy theories, and distortions of the truth, are believed or necessary.

    You don't have to worry about the dumb, blind Progressive thing for me as I am a left leaning, realist, pragmatist, Independent whose only other choice was to join the group who almost ran this country into another Great Depression, and are now trying to change this country into a Corporate Fascism or an Oligarchy/Plutocracy. NO one with a working brain would join such a group -- wouldn't you agree my friend?

    You claimed you got into my head because you were jealous that I was debating others instead of you for 6 days, so I'm giving you more attention so you don't feel left out. Don't worry my friend as I have done much research regarding Conservatism and I know them well and all of their tactics. Here I will share what I learned with you my fiend so ENJOY. I HOPE YOU START FEELING BETTER SOON SO WE CAN HAVE ENJOYABLE DISCOURSE.

    I have studied conservatism as far back in history as it goes, and they have always been on the wrong side of everything. Republicans/Conservatives, and T-Boogers have great insecurities, a sense of helplessness, guilt, and the inability to effect change. I never dared to be radical when young for fear it would make me conservative when old. The radical invents the views. When he has worn them out, the conservative adopts them. You know, one fifth of the people are against everything all the time, and these are the conservatives.

    Conservatism in every place and time is founded on deception, and in particular, rational thought is an evil thought. The opposite of conservatism is democracy, and contempt for democracy is a constant thread in the history of conservative argument. The central conservative argument: freedom is impossible unless the common people internalize aristocratic domination. Liberalism is a movement of conscience, yet conservatism has taken to acting as if they owned the language of conscience. Conservatives continually twists the language of conscience into its opposite. It has no choice: conservatism is unjust, and cannot survive except by pretending to be the opposite of what it is.
