If you don't allow the government the power to "redistribute" wealth, then it CANNOT distribute to the wealthy. You want the government empowered to do things, and then you complain when it does exactly what you want it to be able to do.
Exactly. Obamacare redistributes wealth from the young and healthy to older and ill. As a consequence, the young and healthy aren't buying in. Liberals are all talk until it's their money the government plans on redistributing to others.

The redistribution of wealth from those who earned it to those who did not is wrong. Period.
The tea party is simply too far to the right whether it is social or economic positions. Romney's manta, "smaller, simpler, smarter" government resonates with the public in the abstract, at least. But the tea party goes well beyond that to disabling and dismantling government including programs and services that the vast majority support.
Yes, the US Constitution is far right, when compared to Progressive values of tax & control.

Yes. Many of us knew that all along. The young (largely Obama voters) are learning that the hard way. Obamacare has now mandated that their wealth is to be redistributed to the ill and elderly. Seems they don't like it when the shoe's on the other foot.
Lefties ALWAYS compare conservatives to Nazi's......"National Socialist Party" is what the Nazi's were.
They forced things on people....much like the dummycrats of today.
Bad ideas and control need to be mandated and forced in to programs.
Freedom and Liberty provide people with options, not mandates.
Exactly.
Note that one of Obama's biggest voter demographics, the young, are NOT buying into Obamacare. There may actually be hope for them, yet. This is one of those... "life's learning opportunities." Too bad they had to learn the hard way...
extremist agenda compared to what?
you don't think these liberal democrats are extreme?

The poll shows most see Tea Party as extremist and out of touch with reality on Social issues. Words like backwards and intolerant were given in polls.
This year saw Tea Party folk shutting down Govt. and that did not help America's opinion of them either. We also saw a Democrat in VA win the office running on Obamacare which isn't even popular. The Democrats Terry McAuliffe wasn't even what many consider to be a likable candidate but he handily beat the Tea Party extremist in a year with Democrats in power, something not done in more than 20 years. Most political strategists tell us if they had only run a more moderate Conservative they should easily have won.
Is the term "Tea Party" now deemed by most Americans as someone who is an extremist or a tad crazy? How do they shed this image?

Probably
However, refusing to accept and embrace the common sense and sanity of fiscal responsibility and expansion of business in America for the sake of some nebulous, farcical "war on women" was the embodiment of idiocy.
Dems and liberals (as they run great campaigns) are able to pull this con on an uniformed, slack jawed public time and time again. One simply needs to accept a fast track to poverty, lower standards of living, and eventual third world status to guarantee there will be no "war on women" and universal gay marriage.
