Re: Is This Guy A Complete Idiot??? Romney EXPANDING Mansio
I wasn't lecturing you. After a while, the criticisms are just beyond ignorant. From "Bush stole the elections" to Obama's citizenship, this whole country is a petri dish of arrogance and ignorance.AZGrizFan wrote:Dude, I don't need a lecture.

Eh, I don't know about that. It certainly wouldn't have been as big as it is today, but if McCain had pursued the same financial and economic plan that Obama has, there certainly would've been an undercurrent of people advocating very much the same thing that the Tea Party has advocated. But yes, it would be smaller since the truly racist would've not joined.Ibanez wrote:If McCain had won, there'd be no Tea Party. Fact!GannonFan wrote:

It's sad. People hold onto that shit and fail to understand how our election process works or how our constitution was written. The Constitution isn't perfect or clear (obviously) but if you don't understand it, you just sound like a jackass when you say shit like, "Bush stol the election".GannonFan wrote:This.

Re: Is This Guy A Complete Idiot??? Romney EXPANDING Mansio
I don'tknow about that. THe Tea Party, who claimed to be fed up with everything, didn't start until After a Democrat was elected President and thier name alone, Taxed Enough Already (TEA) is thier war cry. That's the war cry against democrats, not republicans. If they wre tired of all the bs in Washington, why'd it take them 8 years? I don't think they would've emerged if McCain had won.GannonFan wrote:Eh, I don't know about that.

Re: Is This Guy A Complete Idiot??? Romney EXPANDING Mansio
Not that much different as to when partisan groups (NOW for instance, Sierra Club, etc) tend to go quiet when someone from their party is elected, and they squack more when the other party is elected. I would assume it's a matter of working from within versus working on the outside. You hear the outside noise but tend not to notice the stuff that goes on inside.Ibanez wrote:I don'tknow about that.

So are you suggesting that if a Republican wins the White House in 2012, we may hear less and less from the Tea Party?

The Tea Party IS the GOP. These aren't independents who finally "had enough" the movement was started by DCI (a right-wing operations firm) and Dick Armey.

It was a recruiting tactic, a way to rally the base - and little else... the only problem for the GOP is that it has basically become a case of the tail now wagging the dog. They need that fervent fired-up base so badly that the more intellectual aspects of the right have lost a significant measure of control that they once had over the party.
The only thing that unites any of these people is opposition to Obama and little else. Their ideology is confused, unfocused and yet at the same time rigid and inflexible. In essence, it's a lot of angry partisans... in other words - it's fucking Moveon.org circa 2002-2004, and little else.
