At least conservatives have the balls to try and change the status quo.

You all thought you were voting for change when you elected Obama, and all you got was more of the same, only on steroids. Too bad so few of you are willing to admit you were wrong.
You act like liberals and progressives wanted the Tea Party to be dead. Why would we not want the Republican party at war with itself? It helped us hold on to the Senate 4 years longer than we had any realistic hope of. Is Fox saying liberals want the Tea Party dead? Because that is not the case. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Of course, it will all come down to how many of these TP canidates actually win the November elections before we write the obituary of the far right wing Republican as opposed to ultra right wing Republican.
You don't get it at all. The evil "tea party" is painted evil by your liberal heroes. Not evil at all just folks who are tired of seeing their money stolen. Now I'm not a tea party participant so to say but they are more right on than any liberal as to what this country needs to steer towards. Sure the media and nuts hate the tea party................despise them and hope one will go on a shoothing spree so they can scream............but the tea folks make sense. Something liberals never do.

Yep..........liberals are just brainwashed..............nothing these tea party folks do is bad for the US. Only good. Yet they are trained like dogs to be against anything they do. Hell my bro in law is a rabid liberal and can't even think straight anymore. It is rather humerus. He won't let my sister make tea anymore. True too.

I remember when Rand said he was against drones, now he has a newfound love for drones when he said that the 5 Taliban should be killed by a drone strike. Wow, talk about a warhawk. His rhetoric is getting heated up as well, I thought he was a peace candidate? If Rand was supposed to embody the highest standard of the tea party faction of the GOP, then it's not Democrats athat are in trouble, it's all YOU who really think they are going to bring anything new to the table. Wake up and smell the coffee, they're taking all of you for a ride.

Nothing pisses me off more than the tea party with their hypocrisy. I hope the Democrat wins in November.



Why yes, desertdetroiter, I believe he did


Yes, some of the Tea Party backed candidates lost their way once in office, but that is precisely why we have to continue holding these people accountable.

Tea Party organizations can't change human nature, but we can change what elected officials get away with.

There is nothing fascist with the idea of a smaller less intrusive government,a fair tax system and following the Constitution of the U.S. However The DemocRats are far worse than facsists with their abuse of power to silence bully any opposition to Obama's corrupt agenda.
