I worked in the family business since age 5 and never had summer vacations like you did. But I didn't start paying into SS until I was 14. I'm 39 now.

Anyway, so how are seniors who rail against socialism NOT hypocrites?

I agree but that will never happen. Look at the people at these Tea Party rallies? These good ole boys aren't going to start embracing diversity. It's too sissy to them and just a "left coast" concept.

The dumbasses should've known it all along, the only allegiance these people have is to white supremacy. I'd sure like to ask Brandon how ya like them now.
I'd love to ask Michael Steele, too.

Do you think Michael Steele isn't aware these Tea Baggers are a bunch of rednecks? He doesn't care. He is going to say whatever it takes to promote his own career and rise to power.

Guess what in America people can be against the president of this country. Kinda like how your against Bush its allowed in this country. We dont have to support our leaders. We can disagree with them.

I am glad someone told them that to bad no one in the democrat party told the democrats to leave the Bush hitler signs home. So I applaud someone for saying that unlike the democrat party. Democrats could learn a lesson from that.
Yeah but they don't have to show up to a Tea Party event to protest the President. I oppose the President and am a Republican but I also know the Tea Party members are a bunch of racist rednecks. I'm not going to camp out on the lawn with these idiots

You can keep this political hack stuff up all day long its about where the independents are? Which side do they agree with because the are the ones needed for either side to win.

We can sit here and debate which poll means the most all day long and keep avoiding the reason of the movement so lets do it like this

How many more trillions in debt before you say its to much?
Why do you not like making your own choices for your own life?
Why do you like working to pay for politicians meals, liquor, trips etc
Why do you like being lied to?

Did you complain about losing freedom while Bush was president?

You start thread after thread to try and prove that tea party members are racist and this and that. I am guessing its because you dont agree or support racism right? Racism offends you right?

Does it bother you to see a minority called a name or insulted
Hey babe, all these questions you're asking you should've asked Bush, cause he was the originator of the bailouts, remember?

i don't think americans were even awake as to how bad the problems were until the bailouts, and then people started saying WTH? that happened to coincide with obama's election and obama, in fact, supported all those bailouts. those bailouts benefited a lot of very rich and connected people and hurt a lot of middle and lower class people, including minority members. they stole money from the citizens and put your children (or future children) in debt.

if people are being loyal to obama because he is black, then they are engaged in an odd form of racism themselves, where they would defend a corrupt politician because he "represents" their race.

when you see corruption you need to call it out. i wouldn't care if bush and obama were BOTH in jail for selling this country out. (throw mccain, pelosi, schumer, frank, and dodd in there too). i can assure you that with our crooked congress nobody is going to get prosecuted for anything. obama appointed a tax cheat to be the treasury secretary, for crying out loud.


i think the incumbents need to go, and i seriously don't care what party or what race they are.

See this is the kind of stupid remarks that set me off! Do you think Black people would vote for Judge Clarence Thomas for president b/c he's black, what about Condoleezza Rice? Do you vote for politicians simply b/c they're white? Or is your vote based on principals & logic? If so, then give black folks some credit as well, Obama could've been Green & Americans would've still voted for him, black, white, Asian, hispanics, Native Americans, etc. We fell in love with the man, not his race.

How do either one of you know it didn't happen, because Fox News & jackass Limbaugh told you. Just because it wasn't filmed doesn't mean a thing. I believe it did happen, cause that bunch you're defending are the most despicable & diabolical representatives of Americans from WHAT I HAVE SEEN ON VIDEO!. Now defend that.
