Heres the unspoken narrative of the entire recent adventure in Game Theory that was the soon-to-be-terminated government shutdown. The Tea Party is Ba-aaaack!
Oh, RMJ, you kwazy Wingnut! How can you speak such blasphemy? The GOP got crushed. Emperor Barack I and his own appointed Conde Harry Reid got EVERYTHING they could have wanted. The GOPs polls are in the septic tank. Its over for you silly neanderthals. OVER!
Except for one thing The GOP did this to oppose President Obamas signature healthcare reform Glorious ObamaCare. On October 1st, the Internet portion of this monstrosity came, saw and 404′d. Reason Magazine describes the carnage.
Two weeks into the launch and its problems only keep multiplying. Consumers still cant log into the federal exchange website, let alone compare plans, apply for the promised subsidies and buy coverage. The sitewhose staggering $634 million construction cost is more than that of LinkedIn and Spotify combinedhas already been shut down once for repairs, but the problems persist. Thing are so bad that the administration wont even reveal basic information about enrollment rates. Nor will it make its IT folks available to explain the technical glitches, insisting that pent up demand is overwhelming capacity.
Oh, and Senator Cruz basically made the Democrats fight for a whole bunch of things that they already had. And as for poll issues that sound just wrong, check out how David Pryor, Mark Begich and Mary Id vote for ObamaCare Again Landrieu are doing lately. Thats three Red State Dem Senators with Lincoln Chafee 2006 re-election poll numbers.*
So obviously John McCain and Peter King both popped a vessel over what Senator Cruz did to the Republicans. John McCain wants Ted Cruz and Mike Lee held personally responsible for the government shutdown. According to him, elections have consequences. One only wishes he would have acted like it in 2008.
Peter King just about treats Ted Cruz the way he used to treat opponents of the War in Iraq. He claims Ted Cruz strengthened ObamaCare. Really? What he did was demonstrated in bold relief which members of both the GOP and the Democratic Party will most aggressively support it as it 404′s its way across cyberspace on its way to signing up 1.7% of the people it was intended to cover. The worse this rout becomes, the smarter Ted Cruz looks in comparison to John McCain and Peter King.
What just happened here was a wake-up call to the previously quiescent Tea Party. Red State Dems who champion ObamaCare and Republicans that are too weak such as Mitch McConnell are going to spend the entire time between now and November of 2014 running for their lives like a QB behind the Oakland Raiders Offensive Line. A whole bunch of Sunshine Conservatives now fear the fact that the Tea Party is now back. They are not happy campers. Things just got kicked up a notch. People cant just pretend they are Conservative anymore. That explains the incoherent rage of John McCain and Peter King.
*-Senator Chafee was decisively unelected that year.
"We know who have abused us...but the time is coming when they shall lick the dust, and melt away."
The republicrats just stomped on the fire ant mound.
The Alamo.
...yeah, I’m sure the left is shaking in its boots.
Everyone I talked to yesterday was LIVID which is an understatement. Battle cry now is rid the GOP of RINO’s starting with Eunuch Boner and Eunuch McConnell and Linda Graham.
Looks like the Tea Party movement yesterday was reborn.
You hobbits need to get back in line!!!
The GOP elites always wanted a new base. Seems they will get their wish. Exactly WHO that will be a total mystery.
Matt Bevin to oust Mitch McConnell in KY
Joe Carr to oust Lamar Alexander in TN
Lee Bright to oust Lindsey Graham in SC
Dr. Milton Wolf to oust Pat Roberts in KS
J D Winteregg to oust John Boehner in OH-8
PLEASE, contact Louie Gohmert and tell him we want to add his name as opposing Cornyn
We’ll all be getting pre-paid envelopes from the RNC soon, if not already, begging for money to help elect more Liberal Republicans, I know how I will use mine!!
Because of Ted Cruz, this has caught the eye of the American public. Ronald Reagan was so effective because he went around the politicians in Washington and he was very effective as going around the media straight to the American People. Conservatives need to get out in places where THEY WILL BE HEARD by people who only get their news from the alphabet stations...Go to liberal events and be the outspoken voice in the wilderness.! We must fight to save this great nation!
The Tea Party needs a massive event in DC. The visuals of hundreds of thousands of people amassed behind the Capitol makes a strong statement that cannot be ignored. Its been a long time since the 912 event. Just saying....
McLame also needs to be recalled.
He cannot be trusted.
Yes, and each politician has had to show their hand.
WE now have a roadmap of what needs to be done.
I can’t wait until we can start primary-ing the rat bastard phony conservatives and then run the democrats out of office. They think we’re beaten...they’re going to be in for a huge surprise!
Tape it to a brick and mail it back.
The theory of “countervailing force”. Acting against an often detrimental influence or power.
Resist we much. If only because of the enormity of the disrespect delivered to us, by those who will not even defend their own actions in the arena of logical discussion.
Emotion and tantrums have led to much suffering, but sometimes the only response to repeated assaults on reason and logic is to take up a p*ss-elm club and lay it squarely and forcefully right between the eyes of the recalcitrant bully.
And we have been bullied about a lot, by overly emotional adolescents.
I think a lot of these missives I get are just for the money. I harken back to Gottlieb and his multiple corporations solely aimed at donations as reason for this.
But I will say this. I have a "Tea Party Sentiment" equal to anyone. My limit has been reached along with those in my extended family. Collectively, we are pissed to no end. Revenge on the GOP and defeat of their appeasement is our primary concern. We hope to see it burn down to the nub, figuratively. NO MORE RINOS --- EVER
