Rick Santelli’s spontaneous rant was in February of that year, so who co-opted who?
Neither you nor “The Tea Party” can or will speak for me.
I will not be directed by you, by the GOP, or “The Tea Party”, or by any other party or organization who thinks they can tell me (a free man) what the “right way to think” is.
[My position on what gets taught in school: Governments should not operate schools.]
You never told me what “priorities” you accused me of “imposing” on you...
...or how it is that you think I will be responsible
for idiots like yourself forming a 3rd party.
Try to get a grip on yourself.
If you’re pushing Perry, then you are pushing social issues, because he’s all wrong on financial issues and limited government issues.
Oddly you keep on stating positions that I fully agree with (gov’t out of education entirely). In that context I can’t see why you would view Perry favorably at all, unless you are relying exclusively on his re-invented public persona of the past few months.
