What is rather pathetic is that the anti tea party movement claims to be smarter better educated and higher class then the tea party people. But they use their supposed better education to call the tea party members denigrating names. Do educated people really need to use denigrating names to make a point. You claim to be better educated and Superior but act like a 10 year old
If they are so much smarter why do they act like 10 year olds giggling in a sand box and try to use name calling to prove they are better?

If you disagree with positions of the movement then come and argue the positions. the problem is they do not want to argue the positions, so they claim intellectual superiority and call us racist. they are incapable of discussing the core issues of the movement.

lets not discuss tea party issues lets show one sign in a group of 10,000 and label everyone a racist.
lets show a word not spelled correctly and call everyone in the movement stupid.
Lets say people used the N word when not one recorders showed they did.
Anti tea party people say we are rednecks and now i saw a post claiming tea party members clean toilets.
So they show their willingness to denigrate the hard working people in the movement while ignoring the wealthier people in the movement. .
because they claim we are rednecks they choose to call us names rather than discuss the issues. Do they not understand hard working people built this country and have a say so in it.
they choose to denigrate hard working people while they back people who do no work on welfare.
Tea party people will talk about the issues, non tea party people name call denigrate and claim superiority over all but will not discuss the issues.
Thw amazing thing is that the anti tea party movement will call me more names or just ignore this post

The hypocrisy is so Orwellian new speak

That's "their" way. It's how they roll. That's okay, it'll all come up and bite 'em in the ass in the end.

It's a pretty dumb idea. A movement that is apologetic towards government.

The only anti-TP movement, is the GOP.

Would you all be talking about the forming Coffee Party that wants to discuss actual policy matters instead of the typical Tea Party ranting?

He forgot about the can't-think-up-a-name-on-our-own smart people in the Coffee party. Are you sure you want to stick with that coffee name? Your first big issue might be how coffee is bad for you or how coffee bean growing might possibly hurt the environment. Maybe that iconic guy with the mule in the coffee commercial, Juan Valdez, demeans minorities. Or perhaps there are coffee growing fat cats your coffee party might disdain.

My one mission at the Boston tea party yesterday was to question people whose signs stated that Obama was a Marxist/Socialist/Communist to see if they knew what those words meant. If only I had a video camera. Those are basic terms that have changed the history of our world and few people could correctly identify what they meant. Most people who labeled Obama a Marxist were quite open about admitting that they had never read anything that Marx actually wrote.

I found the Republican anti-tea partiers some of the most intelligent people I have ever met. They were the ones protesting the mode of operation that the tea party has taken on and were willing to discuss their points of view free from rhetoric and divisiveness. They might agree with everything the tea party actually stands for, but came to chat at the "Real Tea Party" event on blankets up the hill to discuss politics civilly over tea, cookies, and sandwiches.
