The Tea Party: good or bad for Republicans?

[Edgy Grammy]

These are the things that bother me about your post Andy. In particular the idea somehow that those who are not affiliated with the Tea Party have no common sense, no moral values and don't want to take any individual responsibility.

I'd like to know what you mean by those things in particular - common sense and moral values.

Just agree Miss Gidget, the Tea Party folks don't represent your political feelings...they stand for all you dislike. They want things for America that you don't, they don't like to be taxed to death, (maybe you do) or have their elected officials ignore they wishes or thumb their noses at them, but most of all they don't like the direction that Obama is taking the country under his leadership. They are looking for a change, just not the one that Obama has in mind.

Do you get your "racist labeling verbage" from the defunct Journolist group?

My, my, Grammy, you're up late!

Andy, seriously? Her campaign stump speech was so nasty. Very mean spirited. The whole "how's that hopey changey thing workin out forya" sarcastic attitude.

Mr. Geo, the above statement from Sarah, was right on. She knew her audience, she knew who she was speaking too, she knew that most if not all them were thinking the same think and she knew their answer. Your Obama has a mean spirited way with his words, he plays to the crowd and is always making digs at the Republicans, and loves to diss Bush and anyone else that ticks him off. I think that he has a real mean and get even streak under that cool calm person he tries to project. The man got where he is by playing dirty politics and you are calling Sarah out for her hopey changey comment?

Dial Up works better late night...plus the daughter has hit the sack... I can smoke and enjoy my scotch without her hovering or fussing at me.
Sweet dreams Ugabuga!

Well if nothing else, the Tea Party puts Republicans on the defensive. I don't see how that could possibly be a good thing.

Mr. Lucifer, surely this is a typo on your part...didn't you mean to say, the Tea Party puts Democrats on the defensive?
Had to control my keyboarding urge to not type run instead of defensive.

The Democrats have plenty worth defending. The Republicans have zilch, and are in the unenviable position of having to brush aside deplorable and ignorant behavior of their spin-off cult group because they will need the electors in the next presidential election.

Andy will you tell me more about your black friends and teach me to be non judgemental like you? Oh, and define all those things in bold type for me please.

Poppy, I'll be happy to tell you more about my black friends. One of my closest buddies I flew with is black. We've been friends for 40 years. Right now, I'm sitting next to a little girl who is mad at me because I won't let her on this computer. (She is on her own but wants on this one...you know how 12 year old grandkids are) My other two grand daughters are also around here somewhere. All three of them are half African-American (a term I hate by the way...why can't we just be Armerican?). Now, maybe you can tell me about your black friends?
As far as being non judgemental, I totally realize I am anything but, and proud of it. Oh, and if I need to define all those things in bold type for you, you are not nearly as bright as I gave you credit for being.

Defend something. The race card is not working against the Tea Party people. The truth always wins. Something little devils never seen to grasp

Lucifer ...you are real a piece of work as my grama use to say...you sure do put yourself high up there on that judgement ladder, calling folks and groups ignorant and deplorable. Keep making your snide little remarks and when your ladder topples don't let it hit your backside on the way down.
