At the Tea-Baggers' Meeting: Brainwashing Devices Are Coming - Political Machine - Politics Blog, Opinion and Analysis - AOL News

Apparently they're protesting a 50 yr Communist plot for Obama to brainwash America through through the schools and the new digital tv signal. Gives ya a chill when they shout "Burn the books!"
So these are the teabaggers.

No matter how the organizers attempt to frame it, these are obviously partisan events, a way for an irrelevant party to make noise and attack Obama.....

How about independents? I think this message will be appealing to them. I think the bail outs and the staggering deficit should be a concern to everyone.

The tea parties are partisan events and the tea baggers are almost exclusively right wing...As way of proof, take a look :



How much clearer can it get?

Wow the party of "tolerance" isn't so tolerant when it comes to opposing views.
LOL @ Kweef Olbermann's twin sister whining.

I don't give a damn if it turns out partisan.

Even Democrats should realize that overspending is wrong. Get mad about folks standing up against Democratic insanity if you want to. But, don't put down people who have had enough of the BS.

Sorry to tell ya, but not everyone wants to suck Obama's dick.

^ really? where were you when Bush & Co took us from a surplus to the largest deficit ever when he left office? I suppose you don't mind blowing $10 billion a month for six years and a bold faced lie of a War in IRAQ. You conservatives are the biggest bunch of hypocrits ever! and you call yourself Americans, HA!

Obama has commited over a trillion dollars a year to illegal aliens and a war in Afghanistan. Yes, a WAR.

A Democrat endorsed WAR. By the way, your Democratically led Congress endorsed the war in Iraq.

On another note: You don't even care about deaths in foreign lands. You just want to spew hatred for folks who are not as left as you.

Don't forget to wear a helmet when you ride your bike.

Diversity? Hang it up pal. This is America, and we are Americans, not anything else. Not European. Not communists. Not Japanese.

Progressivism is nothing more than a philosophy. It exists in your mind. It doesn't work on the ground. Don't wish for terrorists to burn conservative's churches. Don't teach your kid to be a *****. He might die from a homosexual related disease. Don't allow folks like Hillary Clinton to run your country. She runs around the globe blaming the United States for everybodie's unease. Isn't there somebody out there that can fix it? I think so.

Democrats love each other to the extent that it is disgusting. Get some balls and learn how to live again. Not how to take.
The only "true" Americans are the native-Americans. I suspect that you are either European-American, Mexican-American, Asian-American, African-American. The white Americans are mostly European-Americans. A white European-American is no more American than an African-American or an Asian-American or any one else who was either naturalized as a citizen or born in this country.

The local tea baggers refused to let any Libertarian speakers take the podium at their event.. if they are truly non-partisan watch dog group against governmental spending excesses, this would not have happened. They need to not be so covert/deceptive and just call themselves Republicans.
