I dislike the Tea Party because they're a bunch of rabid, racist morons who dream of their Uber Moron being in charge of the country.


There is no question who the national Tea Party wants in this race. A petition to “Draft Sarah Palin” is supported by Tea Party groups across the country and has been emailed to millions of their members with “Do the words Senator Palin excite you?” written in the subject box. Those same people will be counted on to finance Palin’s run, assuring her a hefty campaign treasure chest filled with the kind of national interest that no other race in Alaska has ever attracted.

Now, don't get me wrong. I would LOVE to see that ignoramus run again....it will be the funniest thing ever, and laughter is so very good for the soul.

The largest deficit under Bush was a fraction of the year-after-year trillion dollar deficits Obama and free spending Democrats have racked-up.

The racism charge is the only defense liberals have for indefensible and irresponsible deficit spending.

Opposing the looting of the treasury is no way to make friends with the majority of Americans who are currently looting the treasury.

It's who you want to lower taxes on---rich people.

It's less government assistance for poor people and families, not rich corporations.

Did you know that during the 2008 crisis, corporate welfare reached new heights and that in the great bailout of the Great Recession, one corporation alone, AIG, got more than $150 billion--more than was spent on welfare to the poor from 1990 to 2006.

What is ironic is that most of the hate comes from so called "liberals" who what i thought were for equality?
Because in democrats eyes they had the nerve to speak out. The liberal media kicks into action and demonizes them.

No one needs to be told, it's the culture of this administration.

The growing deficit has largely been because we are in a recession and GDP has not grown as it should. Also tax revenues have been low because of all the previous decades tax cuts for the rich.

As someone who knows Sarah Palin, I can assure you of two things:
  1. Sarah will not seek any political office again; and
  2. The Palins sold their home in Wasilla and now live in Arizona. She is no longer eligible to hold any elected office for the State of Alaska.

You raise holy hell over welfare to poor people, but have no problem with corporate welfare.
I just wish the damn government would get their hands out of our pockets.

What does disliking someone/group have to do with equality ?

Many of us disagree with the ideology of the Tea Party, it isnt disrespect, it is a disagreement. There are plenty of Tea Party rallies on youtube. Some of those people make it sound like they want to cut out the the entire northeast all the way down to Maryland as well as the west coast and just drop them in the ocean.

Good for Florida, bad for Arizona, actually Arizona deserves her, maybe she can be Sheriff Joe's running mate.
