"Non-Racist Tea Party Rally Expects 3,000 - Less than 300 show up.

Share |

The Uni-Tea Party is a "non-racist" faction of the Tea Party that was established to prove that the Tea Party can hold a rally without all of the gun toting, racist sign holding trouble makers.

This heavily-promoted event was organized by Jerry Weingarten at the Independance Mall in Philadelphia. More then 3,000 Tea Party Activist were expected to show up in this common display of unity and diversity, but less than 300 people showed up.

If anything, this poor turnout my be a good indication of what the real demographic of the Tea Party is once you extract the racist element from the equasion.

GOP Candidate Sharron Angle Runs From Reporters At Her Own Press Conference

Share |

The GOP's Tea Party endorsed Senate candidate Sharron Angle held her first 3-minute press conference, but then literally ran away from reporters after being invited to stay for follow-up questions. Angle stood there grinning ear-to-ear as one of the final speakers said:

"Sharron Angle is indeed a hero among those of us that want a free and prosperous America."

However, the second that the same speaker took it upon himself to announce that he and Angle both had tight schedules, but would stick around for some follow-up questions from the press, Ms. Sharron literally pivoted on one heel and started walking towards an open door at the back of the building.

Angle suffers from Sarah Palin Syndrome which is brought on by being asked questions that she does not know the answer to, or does know the answer but can't say it without contradicting a pervious statement or looking like a total wing-nut. Like Sarah Palin, Angle unravels like a cheap sweater during tee-vee interviews and with each one, their total disconnect with mainstream America and perhaps even reality comes rushing to the surface.

Freedom Journey: Man Quits Job To Walk Across America

With good intentions, the "Tea Party" movement emerged on the political scene to challenge washington with legitimate concerns over taxation and soring national debt. However, the initial Tea Party Patriots movement was immediately highjacked by the GOP and used as a new banner to push thier anti Obama agenda.

The mantra quickly shifted from taxation to fear mongering with a manufactured assult on the constution, freedom and liberty at the hands of the Obama administration. Yet as Tea Party candidates hit the campaign trail, it was not surprising that their solutions to "take back the country" would require an editing, if not a full blown assult on the what? - Wait for it! - Are you ready? - That's right! - THE CONSTUTION.

Tea Party supported candidate Rand Paul openly calls for restricting constitutional rights under the 14th amendment to some people while leaving it intact for others. They all seem to have a blueprint for how society should conduct itself and beleive themselves to be the best suited facilitators of knowing whom is entitled to what, and to what extent they are entitled.

Rand Paul: Idolized By Tea Party As Palin With A Penis

Dr. Rand Paul may be a skilled surgeon in the operating room, but on the national political stage he's nothing more then Sarah Palin with a penis. They are both Tea Party heros and when you think about it, just how difficult of a task is it to win these wingnuts over?

It's simple! - Just say the craziest shit you can think of and when you refer to the constitution or the founding fathers, do it in a way that makes it seem as if you were actually there when the fucking thing was written. You'll have thier complete and undivided attention. It's like walking through the dog pound with a pocket full of snausages.  Video after the jump

Dear Sarah Palin: Please Google Before You Speak

Share |

Sarah Palin needs google everything she plans on saying before she says it. Yet again she blast Obama, this time for his "nuclear-free world" comment. Then she throws out Ronald Regan's name to ralley the crowd into thunderous applause. As if Ronald Regan would scoff at such an idea. Then Stewart plays a video of Ronald Regan saying the same God Damn that Obama said! -- If anything, it's proof positive that Sarah Palin and the Tea Party people are politically unsophisticated and historically challanged and Fox News may be responsible for that.

Stewart:
"So here's where we're at: We're at the point now that the by far No. 1-ranked news network in this country no longer feels the need to accurately report what a policy document says in black and white. And once you free yourself from the fetters of fact shackles -- or fackles -- in the present day, you'd be amazed at what you can do to the facts from the past."

Palin Shows Tea Party As Politically Unsophistocated

Share |

Last week on MSNBC, Karl Rove told Chuck Todd and Savannah Guthrey that some Tea Baggers are "politically unsophistocated" and this week Sarah Palin proved it at a Tea Party Express Rally in Searchlight, Nevada.

.

It was supposed to be a protest against Majority Leader Harry Reid D-NV, but with the number of motorhomes that showed up, it's obvious that many in attendance would have no voting power in Reid's congressional district or in the entire State of Nevada for that matter.

The Tea Party movement loves to express its affection for the Constitution. The Los Angeles Times writes, "Adherence to what supporters deem to be a strict interpretation of constitutional principles is a key tenet of the tea party movement."

Yesterday’s Tea Party rally in Searchlight, NV, for instance, was filled with imagery of the Constitution. Protesters carried signs that read "I honor the Constitution" and "What about the Constitution don’t you understand?" Rally attendee Norman Halfpenny, a 77-year old retired Marine Corps veteran, said, "We need to get our Constitution back."

In her speech at the rally, Sarah Palin of course paid homage to the Constitution. "Our vision for America is anchored in time-tested truths that the government that governs least governs best, that the Constitution provides the path to a more perfect union — it’s the Constitution," she exclaimed. And so it’s extremely puzzling that Palin introduced this new attack line against President Obama yesterday:

"In these volatile times when we are a nation at war, now more than ever is when we need a commander-in-chief, not a constitutional law professor lecturing us from a lectern."

Just as Karl Rove suggested, the politically unsophistocated crowd cheered wildly at Palin’s line just because of the inflection of her voice.

Fox News Helps Rep. Bachmann With Old File Footage

Share |

Sean Hannity helps Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) turn her TupperWear Party sized rally into a Tea Party Sized rally by using old file footage of Glenn Becks 9/12 Tea Party Protest. They claim the crowd size to be as high as 45,000, which is probably what the crowd size really was back on 9/12. Not the 1.7 million then Beck claimed. Fox News and its's on-air personalities have a Sarah Palin type disconnect with the truth.

Fox News Stirring The Pot Towards Civil Unrest

Share |

Reports that some of the protests have been coordinated by FreedomWorks, the Washington lobbying group of Dick Armey, are not easily dismissed and perticularly with the trail of evidence that is being left behind. I have no doubt that some of these people are legitimately protesting to their elected officials within thier district, it's the bussing in of people and "protesters" on tour to create a public outcry that's I take issue with.



If shutting down public debate was the goal, then the organizers of these staged protest have been widely sucessful. However, if they are under the impression that no town hall mettings equals no public option when it comes to healfcare reform, then they are widely mistaken. In the end, it will have to come down to the emails, phone calls, and letters from verified constituents that lawmakers will have to rely on that will make or brake health the care reform issue.

Whenever I write to my representatives, I always adress the letter or email with my informal first name and no middle initial. When I get a response, it's always addressed with my formal name as listed in the voter registration rolls, so I know someone is checking to verify that I live in the district and what party I belong to. The question is is this: will those same people who stood in line to vote for Obama, take 10 minutes to contact thier representative in congress? - If they don't, then heath care reform is dead.

Giving the appearance of this circus being a "grassroots" will eventually be exposed as a fraud the same way that the Tea Party movement came apart at the seems. Many of the protestors catch phrases can easily be tracked back the the Fox News commentator that spewed it. It might be catchy and effective the first time it's said, but once it's played back against it's original source, it really exposes that protestor as a political parrot delivering a message, rather then speaking their mind.

The one about "If they can't run Cash for Clunkers" or "How can you reform healthcare in 4 weeks when it took Obama 6 months to pick out a dog" I thought these where cleaver comments myself the first time that I heard the "protestors" say them, but a quick reviewed my Fox News Tivo proved otherwise. It was life following a trail of bread crumbs from these protestors mouths, right back to the Fox News Room and directly to the mouths of Steve Doocey, Glenn Beck, and Sean Hannity.

Also, a Connecticut fellow named Bob MacGuffie and four friends who formed a political action committee last year have been distributing a memo instructing people how to infiltrate town hall gatherings and harass Democratic members of Congress. Just another trail of evidence to follow by unsophistocated wannabe activists.



– Artificially Inflate Your Numbers: “Spread out in the hall and try to be in the front half. The objective is to put the Rep on the defensive with your questions and follow-up. The Rep should be made to feel that a majority, and if not, a significant portion of at least the audience, opposes the socialist agenda of Washington.”
– Be Disruptive Early And Often: “You need to rock-the-boat early in the Rep’s presentation, Watch for an opportunity to yell out and challenge the Rep’s statements early.”

– Try To “Rattle Him,” Not Have An Intelligent Debate: “The goal is to rattle him, get him off his prepared script and agenda. If he says something outrageous, stand up and shout out and sit right back down. Look for these opportunities before he even takes questions.”

The goal — recently outlined by an influential lobbyist as "delay" then "kill" — is apparent: Having successfully delayed a vote until after the August recess, lobbyists are seizing on town halls to ambush lawmakers in an attempt to fool them and the greater public into thinking there is wide opposition to health care reform.


However, I think the 2008 election has changed the rules forever and if you want to force change, you're going to have to do it the way that Barack Obama did. With a real grass-movements, and real outraged people in real numbers to effect the ellectorate. The days of make beleive narratives and wagging the dog for theatrical effect are alive and well at Fox News, but Fox News has lost it's ability to master the number of puppets needed to achieve it's purpose.

Republican Party Has An Open Line Directly To God

Share |

It seems that God has had a heavy hand in the recent dealings of the Republican Party. It is after all, God who wants South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford to remain as governor. This of course puts Mr. Sanford in the awkward position of not being able to resign even if he wanted to. I mean, he couldn’t exactly disobey the will of God, could he?

At the same time, Jenny Sanford is being a good Stepford Wife, which is the unspoken role of every republican wife. “Just shut the fuck up and follow the protocol bitch!” Hopefully after her husbands recent revelations about his mistress being his sole mate, Mrs. Sanford will be able to muster up what little dignity and self respect that she has left and kick this womanizing bastard to the curb.

If she stays with this man in a family unit, she can not only expect it to happen again later down the road, she can also expect her own sons to put their wives through the same humiliation that their father put her through. Not just once, but time and time again.

MRS SANFORD: You know what you need to do, so just do it! – Do it as easily as you husband proclaimed his love for another on live television.

On another twisted note, it seems that God has been speaking to another right wing whack job by the name of Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher — aka “Joe the Plumber” — said that he was considering a run for public office. “I’d be up for it,” he said. Excited fans even set up a “Draft Joe the Plumber” site. But in a new interview with WorldNetDaily, Wurzelbacher said that he now isn’t planning to run because God doesn’t want him to:

Asked if he has plans to run for public office, he replied, “I hope not. You know, I talked to God about that and he was like, ‘No.”
He continued, “I believe he’s gotten me on this grassroots movement. If I can encourage leaders to step up, that’s what I would like to do. That’s a heavy role. That’s something I don’t know if I am prepared to do yet.”

But Wurzelbacher said he would keep that door open if God ever calls him to be that leader.
Right now, Wurzelbacher is preparing to participate in the upcoming tea parties.

Tea Baggers And Child Abuse

Share |

The tax day tea party in West Covina, California was dismal for a city with a population in excess of 100,000. When I arrived there were 18 people gathered around at the corner of Vincent Avenue and Plaza Drive, all holding signs about government greed, socialism, and claims of being taxed enough already. At the high point of the tax day protest, I counted 51 Anti-Government protestors although the San Gabriel Valley Tribune reported in this mornings news paper that there were 60 protestors.

One of the most disturbing signs said. “I’m thousands of dollars in debt and I’m only 10. The sign was held by 10-year old Christian Gosney who should have been
in school, but his mother Debbie thought otherwise.

I find this use of children as despicable as parents who drag their children to KKK rallies. The bottom line is that child abuse is child abuse no matter how you wrap it. Way to go Debbie Gosney! – One has to wonder where Mr. Gosney is in this family picture.
