      Just imagine how much it has cost these liberal tyrants trying to quiet the Tea Party/ They have become so confused about what grassroots really is. These liberal have been fabricating grassroots for so long, they actually have come to believe they are actually grassroots. They have to pay people to be their grass roots, that isn’t grass roots. Then they have the Unions, but unions have positioned themselves in a bad way with the terrible economic conditions and the public has come to not appreciate them very much. Especially with this outlandish healthcare benefits and impossible pensions, while the rest of us get far less. I don’t find it fair Unions are the only ones who can compete for government contracts. Not even compete so much as be given them. That is BS and unfair to those of us who are non-union.

      So liberty means being completely taken care of.
      ———————————————————————-

      That’s EXACTLY what they think.

      To us, freedom means being able to work and provide for ourselves and our families without government telling us what to do and how to live our lives, taking more of our earnings in order to do so.

      To them, freedom means having their needs provided for them and their families so they don’t have to work. To them, government IS freedom. To them the American dream is having what you and I would normally work hard to achieve handed to them. They don’t care that it must first be taken from the rest of us because in their minds they are entitled to it – we somehow stole it from them!

      I know it’s warped but there it is…..

      Hey Van Jones,

      You said that any story (including yours) needs a villan and a threat.

      Then you state that you desire to “pop the Tea Pary bubble”.

      So I would assume now that the Tea Party is the ‘threat’, and you are the ‘villan’?

      Dear boy — your “stories” bore the educated people in this country. It is nice to call a mass-movement of average Americans some sort of fictitious bubble. Let me break it down for you and then let’s see how your are going to accomplish your desire.

      I am active in the Tea Party.

      Now how are going to “pop’ me, dear? Just tell us. How are you going to ‘stop’ me from doing anything? Now that I made my point, shut up with your ‘story-telling’. Its boring and utter nonsense.

      Whenever you hear a progressive speak, what he is accusing the enemy of, is what they are doing. so, he wants to throw the government and American people into the global community.. we don’t want to be part of the global community because that disavow our uniqueness and make us one of the same footing as the other countries that have dictators. He wants all countries to be equal. We are not all equal. We have equal opportunities, but without equal effort, we can not have the same things.

      So which are the countries Van Jones would have us be more like, those that “take care o’ their people”…? Funny he doesn’t say. Doesn’t give us the chance to really compare. No examples. No chance to analyze. He slickly creates the notion that other nations have something that we should want. Jealousy / emotion is what he’s after. So slick– the calm, intellectual setting which implies substance and knowledge. This is a textbook example of a Van Jones’ Communist Church service in an academic setting. No questions people– it’s so simple–just BELIEVE!

      When he looks in the mirror he sees exactly what he is, a man who wants to transform America. He is not hiding anything and he isn‘t going away and he won’t be silenced by a tsunami election, if there is one. There is still a substantial number of voters who still believe in these folks, unfortunately a bulk of the media is included. This is a war of survival of freedom. At this time the battle is with words trying to persuade the masses. However, with our polarized electorate the battle lines have been drawn and words are not working. Van and company (executive, justice, homeland, unions) will start initiating civil unrest which will lead to peaceful and then non peaceful riots, (think we just had one of those in Washington), eventually as economies of the world sour even more, full blown violence with injury and loss of life will begin, the haves versus the havenots, the takers versus the providers. Then, before the election, with the country in turmoil, with the media’s encouragement, the annoited one will declare martial law and suspend elections. That is the plan, that is why Van is smiling. That is why the annoited one really doesn’t give a hoot about the upcoming election. Ask yourself, does he really look or act concerned? Some voice on another comment section stated to start arming and pack in supplies, I am thinking he is on the right track. It is hard to imagine another civil war but do we see any other alternative? Political apathy has undesired consequence

They smashed down the unions, they smashed down the safety net, they smashed down public schools, they smashed down the sense that we’re all one country, but they‘re the patriots and we’re not.

When you get spoiled, you loose every aspect of knowing what it means to be without! After that, it’s a domino effect from generation to generation. I’m sure we have plenty of examples here in America! Kids that can’t even cook for themselves because they are so used to having everything handed to them and never really had to do anything for themselves.

      When you joined a political movement that challenges the status quo. Duh. The political establishment, R and D, are marching to the same song, just at different speeds. The Tea Party has a different song, a better song. It is a song to save the country. The establishment can’t allow that, they must destroy you, reputation by reputation.
      During the debt-ceiling debate, the Tea Party did something that hasn’t been done in more than 100 years. Instead of asking “how are we going to spend money we don’t have?“ they asked ”Why are we spending money we don’t have?” Never underestimate how big of a threat that is in Washington.

      However, most respectfully, I can’t buy your statement that there was ZERO difference between either Bush (you didn’t specify which one) and B.O. I’m sorry, that’s too big of a stretch.

      We know that both Bush Sr, and Jr. were born here in the U.S. There is no doubt. Just a friendly word of warning – I’d be careful about what I said about Bush Sr, because former First Lady Barbara Bush isn’t one to mess with. Her kids don’t call her the “Silver Fox” for nothing.

      We know that both Bushs have legitimate Social Security numbers, unlike someone who shall remain nameless.

      We know that both Bush Sr. and Jr. went to Yale and there are records of their attendance, grades and people who remember them as classmates. The same can not be said for others.

      Both Bush Sr. & Jr. served this country in the military – one in the Armed Forces and the other in the National Guard. And before you scoff at the Guard, please remember, Jr. is a qualified jet fighter pilot. They don’t just let any Joe Schmoe into those cockpits. Uh, when did 44 serve?

If Obama had been against it, he would have not kept it in place. Instead he saw a way to use it against America, just like keeping our troops overseas, and then telling them they can’t shoot at anyone not currently holding a gun, so they shoot and then drop their guns, or doing sentry duty with unloaded weapons. He changed the rules of engagement so we can’t win. You fight a war to win it.
