The Tea Party Movement Is More Mainstream Than Obama

A little incoherent, so let me attempt to clarify. It is true many groups that formed after the initial Tea Parties were formed by activists from the Republican Party. But realize, many of those activists are conservatives first, Republicans second. So, I was a registered Republican, Eric was a registered Independent. We’re both conservatives. We both hold conservative beliefs first over any sort of party loyalty.

I will go to war for my country and I'm about to do just that. Even if I have to do it alone.. This country makes me sick.. Rich get richer, poor get poorer, and now they cut unemployment out from under us right before christmas..
Make sure you wave as the new 50 billion dollar war plane flys by you when your sitting home this christmas with no food, freezing because you can't pay your electric bill. Millions unemployed now with no money, no job and no way to get a job.. I say it's time for Civil war and I pray to God I'm not the only one in this country who still has a spine.. I will die, and kill for my country..

Healthcare reform was done wrong, A bill no one read, taxing everyone more money,
who can't afford it anyways. Healthcare reform should have been, Doctors visit only
$10.00, medication should $5.00, others should be lower. Why I say this, we
keep making things look good but it has never worked. So, if every one paid there
own doctor bills, not rely on Government assistant, Except for elderly.
GOVERNMENT KEEPS ACTING IT HAS LOTS OF MONEY BUT IT DOES NOT BECAUSE IT
GETS IT FROM THE TAXPAYERS.
One if everyone keeps more of there paycheck and then they can pay there own
bills. Business would make money, not rely so much on government. School
should cost less if rely on taxpayers money. Books should be have the price.
GOVERNMENT=Taxpayers

Collecting all the trahs of society like palin, witch , angel, paul - this "party" is just junk yard of all that has NO use.

However, such is their version of reason and rationality of the "spendocratic" party. Teaching today's liberal bunch is much like instructing class at Harlem or East L.A. High School ...it is, virtually, impossible!
I can see that the only way to rid ourselves of these "people" is to vote out ALL of the current dems in the mid-terms, then sweep out that dirtbag who has the arrogant audacity to sit in OUR Oval Office.
...let the cleansing begin!
VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!

republicans like cary are so dishonest, they will say anything no matter how ridiculous. this blog is proof.
the logic must be now the the tea party has taken over the republican party that everyone should kowtow to the idiotic spastics. sorry there are some of us who take the country seriously. obviously ms cary doesn't as she gets paid off to pander to lunatic fringe and billionaire whims.

Ms. Cary,
I supported Howard Dean in '04 and voted for a third-party candidate in '08, because Obama and McCain both supported the bailout of the crooked fat cats.
And, I'll vote a straight GOP ticket this year to send the President a message.
Yes, cut taxes and spending, repeal the health-care bill, and rein in the federal government.
My wife and I both have Ph.D.s from Stanford: we are not fundamentalists or militia members.
I have never attended a "Tea Party" event, but I would like to be able to hand this country on to my kids.
