If it is true then they can say whatever they like.

Before Republicans and Democrats face off and say mean things about each other they must first spill the blood of their fellow party members. This type of thing is nothing new.

I would have figured that they were infitrated by both Repubs. and Dems. they saw a solution to the 2 party rule take them out from in side sow decent and keep the third party out my 2 pesos

Most people don't seem to know (??) that the Teabagger crap was actually started by that Rick Santelli dude. The MSNBC dude who went into a rant about needing tea parties, because he was afraid of tax dollars saving some family from a foreclose.
Come on, am I the only one that remembers this?

In any case, it made sense to me that many of the teabaggers were Ron Paul supporters.

The Neocons really have hi-jacked everything. I hope that Ron Paul can win the people over with honestly, rather than losing to the Neocons' lies.

It truly shows that Ron Paul is a threat to the establishment, when they send in to many reinforcements to win over his followers.

EDIT: Typo.
And rant dude was RICK SANTELLI, not Joe Satriani.

"I feel there is some hideous new force loose in the world like a creeping sickness, spreading, blighting. Remoter parts of the world seem better now, because they are less touched by it. Control, bureaucracy, regimentation, these are merely symptoms of a deeper sickness that no political or economic program can touch. What is the sickness itself?" William Burroughs.


Politicians today give us easy answers: The problem is Capitalism/Nazis/Communists/Negroes/Terrorists/America and so forth. This simple solution thesis is rampant in modern society.We need to recognise that individuals or ideas are not the problem, but that the existence of certain individuals or ideas within particular contexts were the result of the failing of particular societies. The problem lies within ourselves as a collective, not within the symptoms that have come our way as a result of our failings.

All this article proves is that the Tea Party has been co-opted by the Republican plants within the Tea Party.

Attacking Ron Paul is key to undermining the Tea Party. This actions states that the Republicans still don't get it. Ron Paul merely represents what Americans are thinking and so it makes sense that the Tea Party would make moves towards Ron Paul because Ron Paul undermines the Republican party goals.

This action is contrived and expected from Republicans that serve only the party and not the people of this great nation. Ron Paul is what the Republican party wishes they were, but are too ignorant to realize that you cant fake honesty and truthfulness.

The America public sees the Republicans for what they are and right now in history they are shooting themselves in one foot while the other foot is in their mouth.

In 1993.. we founded the Patriot Party of Virginia.. out of the dregs of the Perot Petitioners..a year later at a state convention, held in crystal city by the airport in Arlington, delegates were faced with Leona Fulinari's Black Socialist Workers Party Members.. literally swarming us and threatening to take over control the party.

We were basically a bunch of staunch-constitutionalist white boys from Jefferson's Virginia.. well except for me, who had a little color..but nobody notices what they don't care to notice now, do they?

Instead of allowing that to happen, I told the original Virginia Patriot Party members to pull the plug and wrote a moving three paragraphs and distributed it to the first party members, who then walked out en-mass..I wish I had a copy of that...

that was the end.

It is far less expensive for a well oiled (that's moneyed) political machine to highjack a populist movement than to try to choreograph the spontenaity of grassroots.

I dont know that we did the right thing, I do know that we did not have a clue how to play the political game, at that time...

So the events of the Tea-Party are not surprising.

Ron Paul had a very strong following in 2008, I would hope that his supporters will urge him to run again in '12.

Unfortunately in 2008 he was ostracized by the MSM who labeled him as an outcast or kook in some regards. Simply because he spoke the truth and called out all of these finger pointing, bought and paid for CFR sponsored candidates.

Ron Paul is definitely a threat to the GOP, who obviously seek to overtake the DEMOCRATS and have no tolerance to a threat from an outsider so to speak.

It doesn't surprise me in the least. And is more reason to up the ante.

Come on, where were these tea party asshats, when Bush was in power?????

Where was Rick Santelli when Bush passed the "Patriot Act"?

Where were they when the Bush Administration ok'd evesdropping on us, and imprisoning American citizens without trial?

Where were all the pissed off people when Bush was taking away our rights and freedoms, and paving the way for this massive debt?

I will NEVER respect those people who are upset at the Obama Administration, for only continuing in Bush's agenda, when they didn't care if Bush did it.

Can these idiots not see who the real enemy is? Here's a hint, there's Neocons in the Republican party, AND the Demoncrat party. And there's Neocons that control them all behind the scenes.

Someone needs to start educating those idiots.

Maybe why this bumpkin Palin is given so much air time ? To circulate widely her negative influence in association with this tea party movement to ensure it is driven onto the political rocks , at the same tainting this Rand Paul with a Palin endorsement and taking out Ron Paul in an election.

I don't know who's more crazy.... the tea party nut jobs or ron paul with his apocolypse rant.

kinda running scared now aren't they?I got a questionaire from the republican national commitie this morning.wanting my views on the obama agenda.I didn't bother to fill out the paper.instead I wrote my views on both the republican and democrat agenda on a seperate piece of paper.I take it I'll be on some list of terrorists as soon as they read it but I really don't care.When and if the people in this country wakeup and figure out they have a government
of the scumbags,for themselves,by more scumbags things will change.the constitution is our founding document,our corner stone.They are trying to destroy it as fast as they can.I only hope when our constitution is restored again the people who tried to destroy it are charged with treason and hung like the worthless dung that they are.

This is not in the least surprising. It's simply railroading. A tactic as old as dirt, but much more effective.

Same thing they have done to Barack Obama, and will do to anyone they disagree with.

Please, if you are going to make inciteful comments know what you are talking about. "Tea party nut jobs" I can live with but calling Ron Paul nuts is where I draw the line. If you have never read any of the man's books, then you don't truly understand his message. His "apocolypse rant" has a historical and completely logical foundation that you just don't understand. You are gonna feel like an idiot when his "predictions" which are just informed observations prove to be true, again.
