Crash the Tea Party

On a side note---wouldn't it be interesting if we had footage from the events which led up to the original Boston Tea Party to compare to the activities of our current version? I wonder what similarities and/or differences would exist between the two. Obviously the basic theme of taxation without representation would be the same but I wonder what else they would have in common.

You wouldn't be making note that the original tea party was a false flag operation in that they dressed as Indians and committing an act of violence to make it appear others did it are you? Or is the fact that once you move beyond the myth you learn many of the tea dumpers were tea smugglers and had a financial interest in dumping that tea well beyond the issue of taxation? Do we understand the tax itself was imposed to shore up a british corporation in the name of the East India Company who was in financial trouble and who also held an exclusive business monopoly inside the colonies? Or that certain provacatuers in the room held competing business interest from East India Company and therfore getting others to do their bidding while they sat safe at home?

If you start down that "revisionist" trail, you end up understanding that much of the northern colonist actions throughout the sucession from british rule was to rid one corp/state alliance to replace it with another but we won't dare talk about that. Oh, and not that any southern colonist didn't foresee some benefit in that new arrangment aftr sucession either. They would also settled their difference between them 100 years later (under an illusion of granting freedom) as to which part of the country would ultimately control that powerful corp/state alliance that suceded the British for themselves!

Tina Fey is lucky to have the looks and the talent to imitate Palin.....look at Amy Poeler....her Hillary didn't last very long. Remember Vaughn Meader.....he was mostly unemployed when Kennedy died in "63.

Here's a nice piece.

First they show a CNN reporter doing a story on the tea party protest using the democratic tactics and talking points.

they then show a conversation after the story was run where members of crowd confront the journalist for her shoddy reporting.



I love the part where the reporter tries to claim she did not see a sign bashing republicans that is five feet away from her.


Nice piece....I love the part where the angry father, holding his two year old, start bellowing the friend-bomb towards the Reporter....classy people.
Then you wonder why kids become a product of their parents....
Thx for sharing this video Tie, it certainly doesn't strengthen your arguement nor prove she w/o a doubt saw a rare neg-Republican sign in the crowd.
The fact is, most of the Tea Party crowd will go this Nov and vote Republican.
And then vote more Rep in 2012.
So what will they have accomplished ?
More of the same only worse. Instead of money and entitilments spent domesitcally, we'll get more uneccessary Nat'l Security and surveliance spending, more military bases around the world (we are up to what ? 79 Foriegn Military Bases), and more tax cuts for the rich. Then what will Tea Partiers do then ? I'll tell you what they will do then, sit on their fat asses on their lawn chairs waving flags made in China and do nothing, just like they displayed the last eight years. because Beck, Rush, and Fox will feed them the same reassuring junk food which caused the country to nearly stroke out.
Oh, lets wait till a Dem President and Congress take leadership...BS, Why did they wait so long, and why are they silent when a Republican is in charge? Is it because you don't like things "rammed down your throat?" or being "lied" to is more pleasant ?
Let's call it what it really is, An Obama, Pelosi, Reid, hate fest.... Tea Partiers wouldn't know what un-neccessary spending was, even if Reagan came back from the Dead...They mostly resemble zombies, with the exception of a few who really dispises both major branches of Gov't....and realizes the current system won't crack unless you bring both Parties to their knees, not just one.

Two days following the report Roesgen took a vacation from CNN, and, Fox News reports, she now no longer works for the network.

I attended a local Tea Party and I thought it was great to see a lot of people that got upset enough about how things are going to start to get organized. I saw ordinary taxpayers who are fed up with out of control spending, the destruction of our healthcare system, and our National defense. No racists types, the main speaker was Herman Cain.

.

The father holding the two year old was the idiot in the crowd that the cnn reporter wanted to show to discredit the entire movement.

the normal americans in the crowd were ignored the signs showing the tea party is about more then political affiliation were ignored.

I commend you for being all most as bright as a cnn reporter. I'll try to explain it better just for you next time.

It's funny you mention Ron Paul. I am watching CNN's IOUSA $$$ show. They are running a streaming Twitter feed and someone wrote in endorsing a Ron Paul/David Walker ticket in '12.

Geez Tie, it's Sunday relax watch the Masters. Read Scratch's post, now that is how you present your point of view without attacking and resorting to namecalling the poster. So far this weekend you have called me, stupid, and I can't marry my "boyfriend' Obama b/c it's still a State's right and insulted my College education. Wow! The ignore button can be your friend. I personally don't have anyone on ignore, Why? Because I can come here and respectfully disagree with disrespecting the poster................now I to turn around and watch Lee Westwood hopefully put this tournament away.

No the Father is a typical example of the Tea Party faction, spewing his embedded talking points to the reporter and then getting upset when questioned. Many in the crowd were yelling angrily at the top of their lungs which in turn prompted the reporter to say this is certainly not a family event....

So what's your definition of being bright ? One who worships Reagan ? One who supports the Birthers ? One who thinks Obama was born in Kenya ? One who thinks Obama is a Muslim ? Anyone who didn't go to Harvard ? Anyone not from Chicago ? One was says America is now a Socialist Country ? Anyone not an alcoholic ? Anyone who doesn't watch Fox News I suppose....

One who worships Reagan ?
Worshipping Reagan: There's An App For ThatThe Ronald Reagan Presidential Library has come up with a new way for Reaganites to bask in the glory of Ronaldus Magnus: A free iPhone application

One who supports the Birthers ?

One who thinks Obama was born in Kenya ?
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=139481
A Kenyan lawmaker told the nation's Parliament last month that Barack Obama was born in Africa and is therefore "not even a native American."
Debate is then recorded in the official March 25, 2010, hansard – a traditional name for printed transcripts of a parliamentary debate – as continuing with no other MPs mentioning or attempting to correct Orengo's comments about Obama.

One who thinks Obama is a Muslim ?

Anyone who didn't go to Harvard ?

Henry Louis Gates, Jr.

Anyone not from Chicago ?

Anyone not an alcoholic ?

Anyone who doesn't watch Fox News I suppose.
