teabaggers are conservative protesters who are against (or at least thats what they say, im not sure they really know what they are protesting) government spending, and want a small limited government.

ironically, they are called teabaggers because they seem to think they are related to the Boston tea party. however the tea party was about taxation without representation. however im pretty sure all these people had the ability to vote, therefore they were all represented.

haha true. but id be willing to bet every one of those people voted for either the republican or ron paul. so this isnt a case of them not getting what they wanted out of their politicians, they just plain lost. rather like liberals did when they got 8 years of Bush.

I have always wanted to do something. So, since I didn't vote for the people in power, can I get away with not listening to their laws? I so wish I could.

I did everything to get in contact with my senators and my member of congress basically telling them that I am not voting for them because, well, both WA senators have been in office ever since I was in like kindergarten.

i hope that was internet scarsism that i just happened to miss but if not you my friend are the defination of an idiot.  I so tired of people playing the race card i tired of hearing song saying my president is black, im tired of people walking around with my president is black t'shirts, he's just as white as black in actuality, i really dont like obama not becasue hes black but becasue of his policies id have no problem vtoing for a black, yelow person, woman, idk even a orange person if i aggreeed with there policies, and just for the record im a republican/ lbitarian, not a fox news republican or neo conservative like glen beck but some one who actually wants limited governmrnt and so on, just becasuse im on the right wing of the political spectrum and didnt vote for obama, automaticly its assumed that i loved mccain, not at all and yea i did vote for ron paul. 

democrate are idiots and will do whatever the entertainment business tell them to do, or what kanye says, or what there teenage friend tells them to do, or who ever has the best slogan, or what msnbc says

republicnas are idiots too, they dont care when the right spends trillions of dollars but as soon as the left does it its such a terriable thing, or thell just listen to whatever fox news says

politics is a lose lose becasue people are just to narrow minded and bi partisian

i completely agree with you.  the gay rights thing debate is just a distraction.  i'm not against gays never have and never will. they can do whatever they want but our government spends way too much time arguing over that rather then trying to solve these other issues that are tons more important.  i have grown to be disgusted by both the democratic and repubican parties trying to run our country.  i seriously have high hopes for our generation cuz this one fucked shit up majorly.

Difference is that Teabaggers are the type of folks who vehemently believe in their right of gun ownership. Spitting and slapping asshole liberals do not. When you hear talk from these people about "revolution" and changing the government, I think there is good reason to fear a violent outcome. Timothy McVeigh believed in upholding the "ideals" of the forefathers, and look what he did. He felt that his rights were threatened by what he felt was a over active government, so he decided to use his weapons and knowledge of bombs and openly attack the United States. If anything, Teabaggers are terrorists just like Timothy McVeigh was. I personally see way too many parallels between the case of Timothy McVeigh and the current Teabaggers movement.

Lets pick one bad example from the thousands of tea parties around the country and make the assumption they are all like that. From what I've heard from around the country, they are more like my experiences...I've been to two tea parties, both were organized around public buildings, the ga state capital and a city hall in subruban atlanta. Both had speakers and all people did was make signs and listen to the speakers. Not much else. It's not as crazy as you think. The ones I went to had almost no rednecks either.

To the thread creator...Yes, the union should have let the south go.

see this > . thats a period. you should try using one sometimes, it would make your point seem somewhat relevant.


and it had nothing to do with playing the race card. hell yeah the race card gets played.


but again, there is zero coincidence that the most controversial president in a long time is black.

ohh hes spending too much on the bailout. hmmm how come you didnt see angry masses when bush spent 700 billion? conveniently waited till the negro was in office.

"i want my country back". your country back from what? the black man.

nope i had a problem when bush spend 700 billion, i had a problem when obama did it aswell, when obama did it i looked at as a tipping point which pushed people over the edge, and yes people should have been outraged when bush did it, but your average republicn is just as ignorant as your average democrat and dosent care how bad their party is, they will blindly back who ever is in office and there policy's

republicans bail out the supper rich and dems bail out the poor its a lose lose

o yea and you really are pushing for the advancement and equality of the african american race by refering to them as negros, people see past color and see some one as a good person/ bad person not white and black if that were to happen every one could finally be treated the same

for fucks sake use some punctuation

colorblindness isnt the solution. all people arent the same, thats a fact. we need to appreciate every culture for what they have to offer.

my use of negro was sarcastic, sorry if that didnt come across...

second i didnt say every person who opposes obama is racist. but these moronic angry mobs that are the tea parties? absolutely race based. reminds me a lot of lynch mobs

sure people opposed bushes bailouts, but you didnt see these angry mobs.

So, you are the one that would want to take my guns away? I am gonna go be a Deliverance hillbilly now.





In case anyone is too dumb^^^^^^^ my post is sarcasm.


I get your point, but I want to keep something guaranteed me by the Bill of Rights. I agree, getting guns is too easy and that portion should be fixed. If this doesn't make sense, I am typing with one hand and eating.

I only buy from gun shops where there is the background check and everything. Plus, the little gun shops sometimes you can find little treasures. Like, I found the Luger my grandfather owned and then it was stolen from the house. I ACTUALLY found a gun my family used to own. So sick.

it's tough to argue against the validity of discussing politics on newschoolers while discussing politics on newschoolers.

Ben.  you are so uninformed that I almost feel embarrassed for you.

Sure there are a lot of white trash "git er dun, i hate nahggers" types out there that don't like obama because of his skin, but that whole MSM bandwagon that most of his supporters are taking is just plain false.  The last administration, if you were against the war, you were a terroist and hated America.  In this administration, if you oppose the socialization of the country and and systematic dismantling of the economy, you're a rasict hillbilly/terrorist AND hate America.

Thats like saying "I don't see any need to own a Ferrari other than they're fun to drive, which isn't an adequate enough reason". My neighbor has an AK and it's fucking awesome. but I do agree with what you're previosly been saying, which is rare, Obama hasn't done shit and won't do shit. Pretty much why people need to stop saying "Yes we can" to "No I won't". Also the pussy liberal in the first video is a complete dumbass. and yes I say pussy liberal because he decided to walk through a large group of people who were actively demonstrating against his beliefs just to get a rise out of them. I'd like to see him walk through again without the police escort.

i dont think that was a police escort. i think they were just there to make sure shit didnt get out of hand.


as for guns. a lot of things are fun to own, that doesnt mean they should be legal. people think crack is fun, i dont think that should be legal.
