4 in 10 TEA PARTIERS are DEMOCRATS and INDEPENDENTS.

[boedicca]

like i stated earlier...hillbilly types.

When you play the race card, you've conceded defeat.

Of course, it's the only card you hold.

 

[Polk]

The so-called "independents" in the tea party movement are part of that segment of the population are straight-party-line Republicans, but think it's uncool to be a member, so instead they tout their independence.

You mean like when Michael Steele said his problems as head of the RNC is because black politicians are held to a higher standard?

the race card counter to accusations of racism is truely pathetic. and indicates that you are likely to be a racist yourself.

Racism exists esp in rural America. I personallly know several Dems who I heard say "I ain't voting for no ******".
Denying this exists is denying reality.

Also, I get the feeling that the ten percent of tea partiers who self-ID as Democrats have a significant overlap with the ten percent of Christians who don't believe Jesus existed.

 

[LibocalypseNow]

I've been saying this all along. Many Independents and Democrats are Tea Partiers. I've met some.

 

[Claudette]

So have I. In fact I've met quite a few .

The Dems I spoke with at a teaparty event were extremely vocal about Barry Boy.

They sure weren't apologetic about being Dems or being at a Tea Party. Not at all.

Granted the majority at the events are Indi's but there are both Dems and Reps also. Lots of em.

I only attended the one event that was held locally so one has to consider the demographics in this area. I'm sure attendance by different groups will be different in each area.

Most government workers I know except our military are staunch Democrats: town, state, and federal. Of course you can't say that to the Obammunists.

Democrat corruption to GOP, or independent, corruption is 1000 to 1 over the decades and decades, but you can't say that either.

The American people deserve the truth.

Hell, these Obammunists can't admit if this health care rip off was sponsored by Bush, they wouldn't even show up to this thread in opposition. Health care stocks to the moon, thanks Obama. What's next? Companies stop paying for our health care? I expect that is on it's way too, as predicted years ago. Thanks Obama.

Oh, whoops, don't want the Obammunist to call me a troll, much.

 

[Titanic Sailor]

Next Obama will let GM walk away from their numerous caustic sites in bankruptcy. Whoops, Mean Joe GREEN already let that happen too. What an environmentalist he is. And we got the bill for that too.

 

[Titanic Sailor]

These Democrats claim to support Social Security, and one fourth of all government workers and growing, mostly Democrats, do not even pay into the system. Millions of workers over the decades since it's inception avoided being impressed into the system like NORMAL Americans. We can't fix Social Security unless we are all on the same level, and paying into the system.

Yes, such "feelings" are what passes for facts by the Left. The Left wants to believe such things - so you all spread such memes to create a fictional narrative.

It must be comforting to have such a rich fantasy life as compensation for your poor grasp of reality.

 

[California Girl]

Makes me laugh how people get their panties in a wad about polls.

 

[Titanic Sailor]

butterflies, waterfalls, euphoria, increased poverty, hungry children, and massive government, a Democrats heaven.

 

[LibocalypseNow]

It makes perfect sense that true Liberal Democrats would support the Tea Parties. People are still confusing Liberalism with Socialism/Progressivism. Most of today's Democrats are not true Liberals. They are instead Socialists/Progressives. There is a difference.

 

[saveliberty]

Another mudda-sucka repeating that blasted RW LIE!!!

Why do you people feel that you HAVE to push Democrats to the forefront when in actually they are but a FRACTION of the damned Tea-Baggers?

I waited to repost this, because it was attached to a local RWer's post just this week...

Do you see the ACTUAL percentage of Dems?

8%

8 friggin percent of ALL Tea-Baggers are dems, and I bet the majoirty of those are hillbilly types.

Yet you mudda-suckas like to COMFORT your sorry ass selves by CLAIMING that there's this sea of Dems amongts you raving lunatics.

As a Dem who knows mostly all Dems I can tell you I DO. NOT. SEE. or hear about. ANY DEM Tea-Baggers. And the numbers BARE THIS FACT OUT.

Cut your bullcrap for once you RW nutjobs.

Be HONEST!

Okay, I'll be honest. Honestly, if I was a Democrat that knew you, I'd never tell you I was in the Tea Party. As an aquaintance, I'd know your a bigoted hateful person who would be very unkind and not listen to me anyways, so I'd just not tell you.

That's bullshit, if only because there is no 'official' definition of what constitutes a 'true' liberal.

But thought a true liberal is well defined:

"One who believes in giving those that need, the money to meet the need, as long as it is someone elses money that is given"

Am I wrong?

 

[LibocalypseNow]

A true Liberal stands for Freedom and less Government oppression. Socialists/Progressives do not believe in that. There really is a difference.

I'd really love to hear how saying "Hillbilly types" is somehow playing the racecard or even remotely connected to race.

Don't worry...I'll wait.

And as for you, Mr. Svengali...what makes u think that if you knew me, that you would KNOW my political leanings?

What ELSE has your Crystal Ball revealed to you?

 

[Jarhead]

Maybe it is becuase some people are quite easily identified by the repetiveness of their writings?

Not maybe.
