Actually if you look back at their posts you can see who the trolls are. People who defend the government don't have much that's sensible to say about it, so they call everybody stupid or ignorant. Obviously we don't know as much as you do. So have a good life. Do you know anything we don't know about the rest of our lives? Will they be short?

Hi Mike
Well, I took a bit of offense at you suggesting someone isn't bright when they question something...rarely do I see such comments on ATS, so I took the time to investigate who you are by your previous posts
I noted only 2 main themes. your absolute hatred of anything left of far right, calling everything a communist or communism.
I also noted a absolute reactionary hatred of equal measure towards anything muslim.
After about 15 minutes of me going from thread to thread you posted on, I concluded you have never offered any source material, never offered any thoughts to ponder on, just the two mindsets of irrational hatred of islam and the left.
I then noticed you some how, at this point in time, have a negative number of post points on ATS...I feel my 20k points are low, but hey...I often dont try...how the hell do you get negative points?
Anyhow, After long and careful deliberation, I have concluded that you have yet to offer anything to ATS, be it a new perspective, a source based introduction of thinking, or anything of value to progress a conversation. Congratulations...after a year online, you have made the 4th person on my ignore list...knowing full well that you will more than likely never add anything of value to either ATS or indeed the human race.
My advice to you, which will undoubtedly go ignored, would be the following:
Do not question the intellect of anyone whom asks a question as a line of defense...it makes you immediately suspect of the one unable to have articulate thinking to begin with and makes people whom enjoy progressive conversations immediately flag your comment as ignorant.
Until you get a few thousand points behind you, you really dont want to draw too much attention to your line of thinking...if you cant even make a positive contribution to ATS, then why would you in specific question other peoples intellect.
Anyhow, have a good day, and good rest of your life.

I think the tea party is getting a bad rap, it seems that attack is the order of the week @ this grass roots lil organization, and calling em biggots by some liberal media sorces, larry king live, real time on HBO, just for a few examples.. Its pretty amazing how liberals can explain with such clarity the reason all the angry white people in the streets asking for their country back has to do with African Americans.. I must give people to much credit these days..

I am pro-capitalist...I find corporations are a destroyer of capitalism, but that is a discussion for another thread...to sum up the philosophy quickly, capitalism requires spending and continous influx to spread around a marketplace...corporatism is the collecting of assets and currency to dry up the marketplace for higher profit and value.

Unfortunately this has degraded a bit into name calling and non sense. I agree the 'Tea Party' are a bunch of grumpy republicans who are 'crying out' against taxes and 'injustice'.
Strange how these same people were the ones encourage Bush to go to war not once but twice, to approve the No Child Left Behind Act (a joke btw) and to slowly watch the economy tank while the rich got richer and the middle class got poorer.

Yeah......ok.
Wow, you've got to be od'ing on the kool-aid about now.
We are tired of the Federal Government systematically seizing power from individuals and from the States of the Union and centralizing that usurped power into the hands of few political elites and their sycophants.
What are the bill numbers/congressional or presidential acts which have accomplished this? As hard as my primitive little brain works, I cannot seem to recall any changes to our political infrastructure which accomplishes this
I would love to know what the Tea Party stands for and I want details. Please for the love of FSM, do not say "smaller govt" and "lower taxes". I want details!
For any movement to be taken seriously, they must first display some organizational skills and they must be able to develop some sort of a platform expressing their stance in a cohesive manner. And yes, they need a leader that can articulate their message to the general public.
Without any of these things in place, I can't see the Tea Party Movement going anywhere other than into obscurity.
