I just got an e-mail from Grassfire Nation that got me all fired up. It also had me laughing. Here is what it stated
The latest comes from actress Eva Longoria who spoke of the new "extremist movement" that is "very dangerous" and is"not the character of America."
Who are these "dangerous" "extremists"? The Tea Party, of course. This comes just days after Morgan Freeman blasted the Tea Party as "racist" and the "dark, underside of America."
...
Sadly, these attacks from the Left are working. "Tea Party" has become the new "dirty word" in politics. In fact, The New York Times reports that the number of people with an"unfavorable" opinion of the Tea Party has more than doubled in the past 18 months. Even worse, according to the Times:
Aside from the obvious reason this is happening (being an agenda to destroy any chances of a conservative winning the presidency), I am laughing so hard deep inside."The Tea Party ranks lower than any of the 23 other groups we asked about... It is even less popular than much maligned groups like 'atheists' and 'Muslims.'"
Either these commentators have an empty skull, or they really are very stupid. Another option, they are simply part of the agenda, you know how these "actors" can be.
The Tea Party is just a movement to promote LESS GOVERNMENT. That's all. They are not racist, they are not dangerous, they are not extremists. Could there be racists and extremists going to Tea Party rallies? Yeah, sure. There are extreme and racists democrats, but not all democrats are extreme and racist. But that is not what it is about. I'd like for these people to have some proof, because without justification for their comments, they just look as they are, which is stupid. I've been to a Tea Party rally, it certainly is anything but the "dark, underside of America". Everyone there was excited and happy despite their reason for being there. They have hope, and it's because they are using their right as an American, the constitution which they love, to make a difference for their government. As a patriotic American myself, I know that exciting feeling.
Another note: In just a couple of months the government is taking over the internet, to regulate it, to silence the Tea Party (conservatives). Now let's assess this. Who are the extremists? I'd say that anything Nazi-like is pretty extreme.
The tea party rallies I have been to have all been covered with flags, red white and blue, and pure American patriotism. The tea party is as American as it gets, because we want our America back, not this strange land that the democrats are turning it in to where everyone relies on the government and the government keeps taking and spending money like they're on supermarket sweep.
ReplyDeleteLOL!! Juli, I thought my sister and I were the only ones who watch Supermarket Sweep.
ReplyDeleteAnd I totally agree with you

The founders of the Tea Party movement have good intentions. Their basic beliefs are consistent with mine (less government, constitutional rule of law and patriotism). My objection is that they forget about the first amendment - freedom of religion. Generally speaking, most of the Tea Party power brokers are very evangelical and do not accept members of the Mormon church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) as Christians. And, it doesn't stop with simply a lack of acceptance. The greater error is the intensity of their dislike for The Church. They use hate-speak in discussing it. I view them as hypocrites - professing to be a loving lot who embraces all liberty. The only liberty they disdain is the free choice of others to believe in the truth as we see it. I could never support a group like that. And, because they use their power to push overpower a specific group (Mormons) it is a form of tyranny.
