How dare these people seek to thwart the efforts of individual citizens of this Republic who have joined together in an attempt to cause their "employees," the elected members of Congress, the Senate, and the Judiciary to hear their concerns?

Perhaps these two who have studied law do not recognize what Justice Story recognized when he wrote his "Commentaries on the United States Constitution," and observed of the Constitution:

""...and its defenses are impregnable from without. It has been reared for immortality, if the work of man may justly aspire to such a title. It may, nevertheless, perish in an hour by the folly, or corruption, or negligence of its only keepers, THE PEOPLE. Republics are created by virtue, public spirit, and intelligence of the citizens."

TEA Partiers are the citizens of whom Justice Story spoke, and they are, in his words, the Constitution's "only keepers." They see threats to liberty by violations of that Constitution, and they have every obligation and right to speak out.

"Why would the Clintons do this? "

Because, my friend, hillary still has her "eyes on the prize"...to be the first female Prez. IF the TEA party movement prevails, there is a good chance the first female Prez will be Palin.

Hillary has always had that as an agenda...from a quick move to NY so she could be Senator, to lobbying for - and getting - the Sec STate job...she's building her Resume'.



"According Dylan Ratigan at MSNBC the Tea Party movement has “no coach, no game plan, and did we mention, the tea party has a bit of an integrity problem, as everybody from birthers, to open racists, to outright Nazis are actually on the team. And no one involved, including its leadership, seems to mind the fact.” "

But Mr. Ratigan is wrong on several points:

We DO have a "coach" and HE is God;

We also have a "game plan", it's called the Constitution;
Insofar as the "integrity problem", Mr. Ratigan needs to remember a few things:
Birthers? It was a democrat who started the "birther" movement.
Racists?: Look no further than Robert Byrd (D), former Grand Dragon with the KKK, and several other democrats;
Nazis?: Look no further than the White House, and you can find a plethera of them.

The TEA Party members can not control who walks into a rally carring a Nazi flag, or even a confederate flag...but that in no way infers that anyone else in the group share that belief. To believe otherwise is to believe that when a tick gets on a dog, the dog then becomes a blood-sucking parasite.

The lamestream media is in overdrive trying to see if one of their distorted descriptions of the TEA Party will stick...but the truth is, none of them do.

Here are some of the reasons why the left can't control the situation:
1. The TEA Party movement is made up of INDIVIDUALS.
2. The Left doesn't know how to control INDIVIDUALS.
3. Non-Liberal INDIVIDUALS do not march in liberal lockstep, and they each have their own will and opinions.
4. The one-lie, one-command trick will not work with individuals.
5. The left is used to "driving a team", but they don't know how to corral a herd of mavericks.
6. The left know each one of those INDIVIDUALS vote.

The press can't find a pidgeon hole to put the TEA party movement in, no classification is possible, except, "AMERICANS STANDING UP FOR THEIR RIGHTS PER THE CONSTITUTION"...and the left - which leans toward communism and dictatorships - surely doesn't want to hear anything about "freedom of choice", or "freedom of Speech", or "freedome of assembly"...the very word "freedom" to a leftie is like Kryptonite to Superman...turns them into a quivering pile of jello...no offense to Jello.

I sincerely hope that everytime obama and his minions "double down" against us, we "double UP" the size of the TEA party.

When he hears the TEA party marching into Washington, I want him to think the "Langoliers" are coming over the hill and watch him high-tail it out of DC.

No doubt he's planning a quick trip somewhere the week we're supposed to be in Washington - coward that he is.

Onward TEA Party...yes, TEA stands for "Taxed Enough Already", but it also stands for TYRANNY ENRAGES AMERICANS...so Eagles UP and ready.

Why would the Clintons do this? I can understand Mr. Obama, the DNC, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Organizing for America, Majority Leader Harry Reid, the SEIU or ACORN, but the Clintons?

What is going on now is the fulfillment of what Clinton desired to do before running out of time. Remember the Blair/Clinton "Third Way" that was proposed during his administration? It was nothing more than fascism under a different name.

Two things happened - Gore lost, and 9/11 occurred, turning Blair into a neo-conservative. This set the movement back by a few years.

Now, they realize their last chance to see it in their lifetime is through Obama.

I’ll go to my grave believing that the Clinton camp leaked the affair, because they knew it was the one thing on which they could win.

" Big Government reports, “that Clintonistas are plotting a “push/pull” strategy. They plan to identify 7-8 national figures active in the Tea Party movement and engage in deep opposition research on them. If possible, they will identify one or two they can perhaps ‘turn’, either with money or threats, to create a mole in the movement. The others will be subjected to a full-on smear campaign.”

I pray, in Jesus Christ name, we pray to the GOD of Israel the one and true almighty GOD who has created the heavens and the earth.
ELOHIM !
JEHOVAH !
ADONAI !
EL SHADDAI !
Hear our cry, hear our prayer !

REBUKE THEM OH GOD IN ALL YOUR MIGHT !
Cause of their schemes , plans, dirty tricks to fall back on them !!
Protect your people, your children the GOD of Israel !
RISE OH LORD ! SAVE US OH GOD !
TURN THEIR PLANS AND SCHEME BACK ON THEM !
SEND THE WHIRL WIND AND CONFUSION AND LET THEM BE DUMBFOUNDED !
DO YOUR MIGHTY WONDERS THE GOD OF ISRAEL !
PROTECT YOUR PEOPLE AND LET THE PEOPLE SEE AND BE AMAZED !
LET THE GOD OF ISRAEL GET ALL THE GLORY !
SHAKE AND RATTLE THEM OH LORD AND LET THEM RUN IN FEAR !
SEND THEM NIGHTMARES AND DREAMS IN THE NIGHT AND FIGHTEN THEM ! TORMENT THEM WITH VOICES !!

....we were spoon fed the “affair” in order to keep us busy, while Chinese army officials were like pizza delivery guys going in and out of the WH with bags of money.
