    Your response is why I usually just give up in disgust because there is no point in attempting a sane discussion. Had you read my answer to mc mark, you would not go off the deep end by assigning to me motivations and thought processes which clearly exist only in your boundless imagination.

    What I said was everyone, you included, has his or her own idea of what taking back the country means. Democrats felt they took back the country in the election of 2008. Republicans want to take back the country in 2012. The others have never held power so they just want to take charge.

    Twisting what people say into something preposterous is the general style of many on the board. Personally, I lose patience with this technique. Sometimes I volley for a while, but I always get tired of the silliness which degrades into downright pettiness.

    BTW, tea parties evolved because the participants in them got fed up with both Democratic and Republican policies of gridlock, greed, in-fighting and the fact that those politicians work for us, the people ... that means you and me and all who read or don't read this response ... not themselves -- and we the people certainly don't work for the politicians.

    Also, "the Obama administration makes a few superficial scratches and you all are crying like babies" IMO is like saying Sonny Corleone suffered flesh wounds at the toll booth in "The Godfather."

    Get used to it - Obama is chicago style baby and he's going to rule with an iron fist. This was all the plan, we're going to liberalize this country until everything you hold dear is gone!

    You might have more credibility to your argument if you and your fellow travelers would have made your stand while a Republican was running the country into the ground, destroying the economy and plunging us into a needless and criminal war. Now you just look like a bunch of mindless bigots.

    You didn't have any problems for 8 years and then barely a year into a black president's term you lose your minds. I know what taking the country back means to you freaks. You're just too much of a coward to say it publicly.

    So voter intimidation is okay with you? So if a KKK member intimidated a black voter it would be okay with you as long as it was in an area that was considered "Palin's Base"? :confused:

    Personally, I think it is wrong no matter where it happens. I think groups based in hate like the KKK and Black Panthers should stay away from polling places unless they are going to quietly exercise their Constitutional right to vote.

    I find the kind of broad accusations made by the Lefties on this board about other posters to be unbelievable, sad and disgusting. And you're supposed to be the "tolerant ones?" LOL. :eek:

    I am not a member of the Tea Party, the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, or any other political party. I generally vote for who I feel is the best candidate. You may be surprised to know that I voted in the Texas Democratic primary in March. I was never a big fan of Bush and did not vote for him in the primary elections however I did vote for him in the general elections because I thought he was much better than the other choices(ie. Gore and Kerry). As much as I disliked Bush, I dislike Obama even more. I do not think his policies are good for the country. So my idea of "takin' the cuntry back" is to vote for who I think is the best candidate. If the Republicans end up with a candidate who I think is worse than Obama I will gladly vote for Obama.

    There you go again.... do you just have no sense of decency or fairness?

    BTW, I will venture to say that I have a group of long-standing friends (none of whom EVER vote Republican) who would b****-slap you to Hell and back for the kind of insults you hurl at me and others here. They have grace and tolerance.

    What you and your ilk do is so unfounded, reckless and irresponsible, but then those are the underpinnings of Keyboard Warriorhood.

    Did you notice my lack of support for Rush regarding his recent lame remarks? Man, I must be going soft here in The Latter Middle Ages... :grin:

    Can you please point out what is unfounded, reckless and irresponsible about not tolerating racism?

    mc mark, I agree with your stance on not tolerating racism. I abhor it myself! Based on your statement I would take it that you disagree with AG Holder's decision to turn these racist voter intimidaters loose?

    I disagree. The outrage IMO has been simmering for the past 20 years or so, but it finally came to a boil due to Obama's policies. Many of the tea party participants voted for Obama because they believed he was "hope and change" rather than "more of the same ... or worse." Every movement begins in foment before it bursts onto the scene. As an example, but only as a very superficial example, look at the populist movement led by William Jennings Bryan. His "Cross of Gold" speech ignited the movement and stirred changes in monetary policy before flaming out when people discovered his true character.

    Obama, while being the antithesis of Jennings politically, is his mirror image when it comes to disenchantment by the independents -- the swing votes who are neither Democrats nor Republicans. They swept Obama into office and are now very likely to sweep him back out.

    But, as to your trite charge that the tea party participants were inactive under Bush, I give you Barack H. Obama. Many of us were disenchanted with Bush and looked to Obama as a punishment to Republicans with the only serviceable weapon the populace possesses -- the vote.

    What you really mean is, "repeated for truth due to lack of original thought." :p

    Yes, I am ok with it as long as it happens in Palin's base in west Philly. Also her other bases in Watts, Bed-Stuy, Lower 9th Ward, Garfield Park, South Bronx, etc etc etc.

    PS you might want to look above your head for all the stuff flying past it..maybe a periscope of sorts.

    Tea Partiers are ideologically identical to conservative Republicans. You're saying these people voted for Obama?

    http://www.gallup.com/poll/141098/Tea-Party-Supporters-Overlap-Republican-Base.aspx

    All tea partiers are is conservative Republicans that vote Republican but don't like to call themselves that because being Republican has become unpopular.

    his point is that bush spent 8 years trampling all over the constitution, spending like a drunken sailor, expanding the federal government to record levels, lying us into wars, ect, ect and yall not only did not speak out against it, you attacked those who did speak out. it was unpatriotic and unamerican to criticize the president...and obama comes along and now all of a sudden yall are for small government and fiscal responsibility. and its now ok to openly criticize the president. arent we still at war? doesnt it hurt the troops and embolden our enemies to be so critical of the president?

    its very hypocritical.
