Hatch: Tea Party movement threatening to tear GOP apart [More]'Bout damn time. Keep tearing.
Particularly when they offer us fascist creeps like this...
We don't need you. You need us.
Do what we say or become extinct. We'll still have guns. (I do hope whenever you hear someone say how we must make this or that political choice or we'll lose our guns!!! you take a moment to publicly slap the weasel for being a dullard and a coward, and let him know that he may, but yours they're going to have to work for.)
But one thing Hatch won't do, he said, is vote against Obama appointees for partisan reasons.Not for partisan reasons, you dope. For principled ones.
O brother, where art thou?

What this idiot doesn't seem to understand is that we no longer care about the GOP. We care about true conservatives and our endangered freedoms. We are tired of being betrayed by the elite Republicans who use fear of the left to get elected. Giving into the GOP scaremongering is not part of the solution, it's part of the problem. If the GOP wants our support they had better put forth CONSERVATIVE candidates who hold to our core beliefs. Good bye Mr. Hatch. Your time in congress is coming to an end.
Orin Hatch. POS and traitor. So long, decrepit, worthless, lying rubbish.
Ken, agree with you 100%
This year we are not only seeking to rescue congress but we are also RINO Hunting and the RNC seems oblivious to the fact. Not long ago I got the traditional "please send us money" from the RNC and "signed" by Mr. Steele. I returned the form with a nice message written with a thick Sharpie
No Mone For RINOs!

See I'm torn ... I like quite a few of the TEA partiers... however ... there are too many of them that think Sarah Palin is God's gift to America.
People like that frighten me and make me want to run in the other direction from the movement.
The_Chef,
There's crazies in every movement. I work in the anti-establishment liberal sector, so you can imagine the fallacies I deal with.
I remember at the first Tea Party protest (about a year ago), I was passing out information on regulating and taxing marijuana from a fiscal perspective. I had one angry guy say to me, "Fuck your freedom of speech!" Truly, the man must have loved liberty. Racist within the Tea Party is a big problem too, but that's another story.
At the same time, I made a lot of good contacts, and that's what "parties" are all about: networking to drive your own agenda, and to meet new and intelligent people. When it comes to getting things done, political "parties" are usually inactive - it is the "Organizations" that make impacts (for-profit or non-profit), at least in my experience.
I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever in religion, in philosophy, in politics, or in anything else where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent.
the Chef said....there are too many of them that think Sarah Palin is God's gift to America.
That is not totally true. Those that exclusivly support the GOP may think that but the majority don't. She made a good inpression at the tea party convention, then she blew it and showed her true colors. She endorsed John McCain and Rick Perry. You can read more on my blog, oneangrytaxpayer.org, or http://ken-lowder.blogspot.com/ on what I and others think of that.

Anyone with half an analytical brain would tell you the Sarah Palin is not "the one" when she accepted McCains' invitation for the R Ticket. She is not prototype, she is not a tea party advance model, she is a Republican. If the Republic is to be restored, it will be with people with fresh ideas and better ways of getting things done.
