The Tea Party has had their 15 minutes of fame, and their behavior during the budget crisis has raised awareness that their presence is detrimental to the well-being of this country. Their ideology is a repulsive one, driven to prominence by the election of this black President. They were non-existent during the disastrous Bush years. Time for Dem voters to send them back to where they belong. Their racist, ultra right-wing agenda has no place in modern times in this society.
Here we go again. The race baiting is back. Guess the "terrorist" label is becoming old hat.
Can you please explain to me how expecting our country to live within its means, not borrow money we can't possibly pay back, spend money we don't need to be spending, and cutting up the credit card has no place in modern times? You mean in the Socialist States of American that you dream of?
Do you live that way in your personal life? Max out the cards, default on your debts, spend with no regard to how much money you have, splurge on frivolous things thinking you need it?
I wish that were true but Boehner has already said he won't appoint anyone to the Super Committee who would vote for tax increases. I do think the committee was a good idea and it could lessen the power of the Tea Party but they will still have a plate at the table. The trouble with the Tea Party is they want to transform this country into something we won't even recognize in 10-15 years, If they have their way, we'll be a 3rd rate Banana Republic and all the things that made us great will be gone. Government and compromise are not bad things. Sure, we need changes but most of us still want a government and government programs! The Tea Party is not fit to lead; their only mission is to destroy from within.
You think it a good idea? We are in this mess because they spent about 820 days NOT passing a budget, and spending us into a ratings downgrade
The self righteous boobs in congress barely do their jobs as it is now, so they hate the TEA party for forcing them to actually do their jobs. They want a committee to disenfranchise the nation, so just a few select folks will have power in congress, leaving the vast majority to wave in the breeze.
Just lookig at the senate finance sommitteee debate on tax reform yesterday it really seems that the Tea party came out of this way ahead. That is not surprising really has they are a movement that came out of states spending debates .Basically the tax and spend days of the 60'd thru early 2000's is dead on the political front because of its results.Een europe is way ahead of this after seeing what cutting government spending has done for the German economy.One has to remmeber that the tea Party is a move,nt ;nt a political party and is having a effect on both parties now in solution thinking.
If we have learned anything about the highjacking episode we just witnessed, it's that the TParty cares absolutely nothing about the United States.
We assume this based on what?
That they wanted cuts in spending? That they want to lower the deficit? Otr that they wont play by the hardliners rules?
Im not a tea party person. But at least they aren't the dems or the neocons.
This party hardliner crap is proof that both major parties care absolutely nothing about our country.

anti-Tea Partiers are deep in stage 3. Ignoring and ridicule didn't work.
