Reading this is like a acid flashback. Only in the mind of liberals.

Oooooh, check your premises Lizzie, check your premises!

We are a nation that absolutely DEPENDS on our benevolent government for our life, our liberty, our wealth, and [now] our health - and woe be the one who DARES suggest we downsize, or reduce the power of that!


You forgot to say about the level of the oceans and stability of our sun. Only thanks to the tireless care Comrade Obama we can exist on the planet Earth.

If it's just about ideologies, then the fact that The Weather Underground engaged in bombings shouldn't matter.

Choosing a 40-year-old terrorist group to compare the Tea Party to was a transparent attempt to make them look better by comparison and nothing more. You could just as easily replace the Weather Underground in that comparison with Hitler, cancer, dogs crapping on your front lawn, Hurricane Katrina, or the ebola virus and achieve the same result. And the comparisons would be just about as silly.

Don't be silly Trix is for kids

And, would any , even one, member of the "tea party" be honest enough to admit this hatred and racism ??
And, tea partyers, exactly where are you going to pare or trim down government ?
And why ?

as a member
 
Re: Which is radical fringe is worse? The Weather Underground or the Tea Party? Wh

the TEA party is not full of radicals. They are elected to promote Fiscal responsibility and smaller government and that's exactly what they are doing. What's so radical about that. Taxed Enough Already. Sounds pretty logical to me. I do not agree with what every TEA party member stands for, but the basics of less government lower taxes and controlled spending I'm all for

they may not be in your mind, but to a progressive liberal they are.

That's true too, but I guess my idea of what's radical and not may be different. Big changes can be seen as radical despite what end of the spectrum they come from. Radical changes is just what the government needs, if the United States is gonna survive, let alone remain a super power for the next 50-60 years

Exactly.

The media knows it cannot win an ideological debate with them, so they try to turn it into "Oh... uh... well... they're crazy! And you're crazy too if you support them!"

The main stream media calling anyone radical makes me giggle. they are about as left as you get these days. I'd love to have a debate on some hot issues with a far leftist and watch them try to explain how raising taxes on the rich and giving free hand outs will somehow make America more prosperous

It isn't so much that they should raise taxes on the rich - but rather not overtax the poor. I'd preferably like to see all Americans prosper - if that's even possible. The rich should spend more as means to not have TOO much of an inbalance. But I definitely don't favor socialism neither.

I support a progressive tax, but feel everyone should pay something into the system. I have a blog on Taxes, its open for discussion as well. But what you quoted wasn't my views it was how I perceive today's mainstream media and the left side of the aisle
 
Re: Which is radical fringe is worse? The Weather Underground or the Tea Party? Wh

We all have heard how radical the Tea Party is and how out of touch they are with reality. So how do the compare with the radical left organization calling themselves the Weather Underground formed in Ann Arbor from the SDS. The Weather Underground seemed pretty much out there and used violence to make their point. Please state your opinion.
None of them come close to the New World Government - an Alternative to the New World Order - which offers the actual solution instead of monkeydonkeying left and right
 
Re: Which is radical fringe is worse? The Weather Underground or the Tea Party? Wh

Please speak for your own lack of being in touch with reality.

Could you be so kind as to validate your claim that the Tea Party is radical? Not your opinion ... prove it.

We'll wait.
