Juan Williams: Republican leaders must keep Tea Party on the run
The Hill ^ | February 17, 2014 | Juan Williams

Posted on 02/17/2014 4:43:43 PM PST by yoe

Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnel (R-Ky.) are now in position to end the Tea Party’s death grip on the Republican Party’s political future.

[snip]If the nation’s credit rating, stocks and the recovery went down the sewer because of Republicans’ refusal to raise the debt ceiling, the GOP’s chances in the midterm elections would have been severely damaged.

"Juan The Apologist" is terrified of the Tea Party and gives them far more credit than perhaps they deserve, but hey, it's all good news for the Tea Party, the party for the Constitution....what part of that document does Juan not like or understand? It's wrong for the GOP and Tea Party to openly stand up for our Constitution?

I was unaware Republicans were in a death grip by stand up Americans....Juan, you make yourself look foolish with such blather.

Sorry Juan but you are 100% wrong.

The GOP needs to stop stalling, stop sending American jobs to foreign countries, and it badly needs to stand up for once.

I no longer expect to see any of those things from the GOP.

Which is why I now support the Tea Party.

Waiting on the national party, to choose.

From here, it looks like the Tea Party is the last, best hope to end “business as usual” in Washington.

This is what has both Juans -—Williams and McLame in a lather.

Yes, as any reasonable, sane person should understand, Juan Williams only wants what’s best for the Republican party. He sincerely hopes for them to do well in 2016 and 2018. That’s why he offers them his strategic advice pro bono.

Fairly recently I have seen Juan’s son Anthony/Tony on some talking head news show. Surprize, surprize, surprize - he was a Republican!

Juan Williams. One of the reasons I never watch Fox News or listen to Hannity.

Pat Caddell Says Establishment Republicans 'Want the IRS to Go After' the Tea Party

The civil war between the Tea Party and the GOP Establishment has been brutal. But could it be the reason congressional Republicans aren't putting the heat on President Obama for the IRS scandal?

Democratic pollster Pat Caddell thinks so, and radio host Rush Limbaugh said it's plausible. One historian even told Breitbart News the modern GOP resembles a "crime family."

"The establishment Republicans want the IRS to go after the Tea Parties," Caddell told Fox News on Sunday.

"When you have 71 percent who want an investigation, 64 percent who believe that it is a sign of corruption including nearly a majority of Democrats," Caddell said, "the reason is the establishment Republicans want the IRS to go after the Tea Parties. Got it?"
