Who are you calling an anarchist?
09/25/13 | Samsmom

Why isn't anyone challenging Harry Reid's characterization of law-abiding taxpayers as "anarchists." I do not belong to an official Tea Party group, and I doubt most people who consider themselves Tea Party people do, I support a government that spends within its means. How is that anarchist. I never understood the Tea Party to mean "no government" which is how they are being characterized. Why is this unchallenged? Doesn't that make it okay for IRS to conduct their witch hunts?

I have worked since I was 14, first job was in my grandfather's bodega in the south Bronx. I have worked two jobs for 10 years so I could help my kids with college tuition and make ends meet. My younger son served in the Marine Corps, two deployments to Afghanistan.

I attended rallies in NYC and DC. I never littered, destroyed property, disrespected law enforcement or disrupted neighbors or local business, yet Harry Reid characterizes me as an anarchist. I am fed up with these insults going unchallenged! But what to do about it? Like minded congressmen should object every time he says it!

Being a Leftist means never having to say you’re sorry.

I took an oath to protect and defend our Constitution, not once but several times.

If honoring that oath makes me an anarchist so be it!

This is an old Marxist's trick to accuse your opponent of what you are doing to confuse and defuse allegations of your wrongdoing.

This is merely Alinsky's Rule #12 in action...
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

If you are not a totalitarian, then you are an anarchist.

Call a Senator yourself and tell them about it. I did. Call the Republicans and the Democrats.

Take 7 minutes, look up a senator, call and talk live. Then call back an leave a message. Then call another one. Start with your own and move to the next closest states around you. Republicans first then dems.

Ready.... BREAK!

We have a Republican House member calling Cruz a TERRORIST! Nobody is doing anything about this crap. It’s the night of the long knives.

Certainly, when it come to the type of tight control Reid and Obama wish to impose on Americans, I am more anarchist than statist.

One man’s anarchist is another man’s patriot.

People who pay the taxes and do the work are the enemy to the Marxists.

Reid is a retard. He thinks the country he lives in and the government he works for were founded by anarchists.

Better an Anarchist than a Nazi like Harry Reid.
