re: #208 BigPapa

The fiscal policy Tea Party got co-opted long ago but a bunch of nutters. You should have been complaining two years ago . Lamenting here and now just isn’t as productive, especially when ladled over with French xenophobia. How did the French get into this?

The Tea Party is about anti-government populist rage seeded with racism, violent rhetoric, and hyperbole. The fiscal conservatives were long ago drowned out. Now it’s just a bunch of iterations of various lib/winger groups frothed up hating Obama/liberals/Rinos and anybody else that piss them off, leaderless and disconnected, sorta like Islamic fundamentalists fighting against the Great Satan in leaderless cells. Except they have a bunch of TV/radio hosts egging them on. Obama is the Great Satan now, Rush wears the turban, Palin is Achmadinejad, Beck is the fiery preacher praising jihad against all that is destroying his America.

Too much for most to handle.

Now you’re just campaigning for a bunch of up-dings.
