The TEA (Taxed Enough Already) party sprang up in spontaneous rebellion to big government's big spending, big taxing ways. TARP, the bailouts, the PORKULUS package and ObamaCare lit the fuse. TEA partiers support the constitution's limited government restrictions. TEA partiers are non-partisan, i.e., we oppose the big government, big spending, big taxing moves of both the major political parties.
This is an open rebellion against business as usual big spending, overreaching government! We demand a return to constitutionally limited government!!
The socialist/progressive Democrat party is our natural enemy and they understand that and attack us accordingly.
The big government RINO socialist/progressive wing of the Republican party is also our natural enemy and they attack us accordingly. They fear us, but they NEED us. They despise us, spit on us, call us right-wing extremists and hateful bigots, but beg us for our votes. They EXPECT us to bend over in the end and willingly accept their BIG GOVERNMENT candidates and programs without any real opposition.
Oh, they may try to sugar coat it a bit, and placate us here and there with some smooth talk, and toss us a bone from time-to-time with conservative head feints, but it's clear they have no intention of ever changing their evil progressive ways.
The progressive wing of the GOP does not really comprehend that the TEA party rebellion is aimed squarely at THEM!!
They believe that we have nowhere else to go and that fear of an Obama second term will compel us to vote for a Republican version of BIG GOVERNMENT, big spending, big taxing, constitution ignoring progressive liar of a candidate.
Got news for them.
The TEA party rebellion is made up of tens of millions of liberty-loving, patriotic citizens who are totally fed up with corrupt, lying, two-faced, smooth-talking, big government socialists, corrupt crony capitalist bastard, progressives, Marxists, etc, and it makes no difference to us which party they belong to. And we're madder than hell and loaded for bear!!
This is OPEN REBELLION at the ballot box!!
TEA party hating elite establishment, Romney, Rove & Co., had best get used to it. Your any RINO but Obama gig is up!!
The TEA party is here to stay and we're NOT going to vote for your big government, TARP pushing, PORKULUS pushing, RomneyCare pushing, gun-grabbing, abortionist, gay-rights pushing, global warming advocating, mandate-loving, anti-Reagan, anti-liberty, socialist/progressive, flavor of the day RINO, the chief architect and advocate of ObamaCare, Mitt Romney!!
FUMR!! FUGOP!!
TEA partiers unite against Obama/Romney!!
The progressive GOP be damned!!
Long live the Republic!!
Great post!
I don’t want Romney to get the nomination but if he does get the nomination, we all need to work to get him elected. Another four years of Obama will be the end of this nation.
I’m not at all in Romney’s corner now but I have to acknowledge what damage Obama would do and vote accordingly.
No way will my family or I vote for anyone even close to a RINO! If there is no Conservative candidate my resources, money and time, will focus on Congress. Most of that may have to go to local and state elections.
The US Congress should go against Obama and the dems, and that should keep Obama on a short leash until 2016.
Conservatives need to look ahead. Build from the local up. No more VP’S who are too old to take over. We need to plan ahead!
You work your tail off to ensure that does not happen.
No way, Jose. No Romney. Not on my watch!!
“I don’t want Romney to get the nomination but if he does get the nomination, we all need to work to get him elected.”
Which other principles are you willing to abandon?
Amen! I’m doing the earthquake because I’m Tea Party and I’m not going down so easily. If Sarah does not reconsider I will not have Mitt Romney forced on me. To put it directly, this is crap!
NUTS! Defeatists have no place in a rebellion. Surrender your own ass. You’re not going to surrender mine!!
Like what Cain has to say however if you listen closely it's just another black man with a chip on his shoulder. Listening to NPR this weekend and they had a segment on Cain; in it he was talking about how he and his brother, "broke the law" by drinking out of the "whites only" drinking fountain. He went into great detail about how his older brother took the "first" drink while he kept "lookout" and then it was his turn while his brother stood watch....
You have GOT to be kidding me. This is supposed to be some kind of evidence of a "black man with a chip on his shoulder?" You have problems.
Amen Brother! The establishment is nothing without the grass roots and they are going to learn that the hard way.
“And we’re madder than hell and loaded for bear!! “
And here we come!!
Count me out. Under no circumstances will I either work to get Rommy elected or vote for him.
Last election conservatives couldn't stop McCain from winning the GOP nomination. The official FR stance was FUJM. McCain proved conservatives were a weaker force in the GOP than I thought.
The next President will be Obama or the GOP candidate. The 2 major parties agree that there should only be 2 major parties and they made the rules to make sure it stays that way.
I think statements like FUMR FUGOP are counter productive to removing Obama. Further, if "Anybody But Mitt" fails to stop a Romney GOP nomination why would Romney care more about what conservatives want after the election, than what liberals want? Niether supported him.
period. mr. robinson.
i would only add that unlike the R’s, those of us who cannot and will not ever vote for romney or any immoral statist again, have *zero* fear of obama and his goons.
we don’t *fear* 4 more, or 100 more years of obama. we fear only God and for our children’s future. that’s it.
the country was already gone when we decided to fight. we are fighting as individuals against a massive statist machine, but we have an infinte God at our backs.
don’t count us out yet.
The only way Romney will win this one is if conservatives give it to him. The establishment can’t engineer a win for him, but conservatives quagmired in a mud slinging contest can.
I still wanna hear which other principles he’ll abandon. If its so easy to throw away some to vote Romney, why call himself conservative at all?
COOL !!!
100% on the money my man! Now if we can channel this anger, disgust, and rebellion into actions that cause multitudes to rise up. Jim you are the pulse and conscious of a great many of us. How plainly obvious is the whole Romney charade. The sooner we narrow the field the better. Why was Christie’s support of O’Romney a surprise to me? It seemed to be out of “left” field. I just have not followed Chris at all but thought he had good sense. A look at Mitt’s propaganda page

touts his’ overwhelming’ advantage with regards to career politicians. I see absolutely nothing compelling there. Jim has already here voiced the crux of my position on O’Romney. Oooo wee, let’s get it on! Cowboy up or roll over and play Dole. I’m with the two Jawja Boys myself.
Memo to the GOP establishment:
While in the voting both on November 3, 1992 I was overheard saying, “Read my lips, a@& hole” as I pulled the lever for perot. Go ahead, give me a reason, I dare you.
I raise my voice with the choir!
NO MORE RINOS! FUMR!
I held my nose with McCain. I will NEVER feel like taking a shower after voting again!
