There used to be ideological differences that were understandable, and there used to be moderate Republicans. That has gone away. The Republican Party is now just a bunch of religious lunatics, flat-earthers and Civil War reenactors. - Bill Maher

Subject: Tea Party

 

The Tea party is no grass roots party nor is it a movement.
This facade was formulated by the congressional republicans masters, the very wealthy, to insure they do not deviate from their mission, to transfer the wealth upward.
The Koch Brothers, et al, chose Dick Armey to put this plan into action. The candidates they are choosing are out of the mainstream for a reason. This is to show the republicans how much control they really have over their jobs and lives. Play ball or be replaced, no more eating at the trough or filling their pockets with free money.
Hence thee name tea baggers. Anyone in the mainstream knows what this means.

THIS IS JUST A SHOT ACROSS THE BOW OF THEIR CONGRESSIONAL BOAT!!!
IT LOOKS AS THOUGH THEY HAVE GOT THE MESSAGE!!

I've been around
long enough to see
the writing on the wall

God bless you and I wish you nothing but the best

love,
Steve

 

Thank you for writing, Steve.

 

Teabaggers, at least to me, seem to be the misfits of the far right. And they are as delusional as the "fair and balanced" news they watch.

 

I'll believe the Republicans/Teabaggers want government out of our lives once they remove themselves from the female reproduction system and saying who can and can't get married.

 

These poor fools are just pawns. And Republicans are getting wealthy writing stupid books.

 

Geez, and here I thought the Internet would provide easy access to the truth and instead it has become an effective Republican vehicle for misinformation manipulation.

 

Silly me.

Pimps That Are Punks

 

Fox News’ “comedy show,” Red Eye, yukked it up over ACORN “pimp” James O’Keefe’s plan to punk a CNN reporter by seducing her and humiliating her when she showed up to prepare for a documentary on conservative activists. Host Greg Gutfeld said O’Keefe showed “a healthy disdain for media” and even argued that he would have “done the same thing.” Guest Ann Coulter, still being investigated for voter fraud by the State of Connecticut (her second such investigation), whined about “poor little James O’Keefe” being attacked instead of Michael Moore or Stephen Colbert.
