You guys are forgetting BOTH parties do this with their fringe groups?

No, I'm not.
I'm just lampooning the "Tea Partiers" notion that they are "Taking back our Country"---No, they're not. They are merely being absorbed into the other half of the Status Quo. (The other wing of Lou Dobbs proverbial "bird".).

Trying to save the country from the party that has sold out to the corporatocracy(Dems), by becoming a part of the party that IS the corporatocracy (GOP) is not "Taking Back America". It saddens me, because I know that at least some of these people mean well, and truly believe they are fighting for freedom. Maybe at first they were. But now they are little more than pawns.

That's how I see it.

At least we see things the same in a way!

Basically we're all screwed.

Those women that said they just wanted government to "Just go away" would be the first ones to scream bloody murder when someone robbed them and the were no cops around. Bunch of thick headed anarchists.

Wanna back that up? Can you point to any elected Democratic politicians or prominent officials who goad the fringe elements on the Left to acts of violence and rebellion? It has NEVER happened but it happens every effin' day on the Right.

Of course there have. More importantly, people like Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, Steve King, and Glenn Beck are encouraging it. So, even if there hadn't already been numerous acts of anti-government and anti-liberal violence, prominent people on the Right are inciting their base to it.

What, are they saying throw molotov cocktails or something? Please point me in the right direction, it sure hasn't been on the news.

Who told them to throw bricks?
