Tea Party Is Recycled John Birch Society Hate Rhetoric

No lefy I know gives a rat's ass about the Constitution.

So whose side are we to be on?

Bullshit. And utter bullshit.

George W. Bush did a tap dance on the Constitution and very few on the right even opened an eye.

They even moved the goal posts for him. Can you say "Enhanced Interrogation"?

Amazing.

There should be at least some contrition from you guys. But nothing. Nadda.


Bull..... I yelled at Boosh for the last six years of his terms... so STFU, we all didnt agree with him.
He was a liberal just like Obama... he just had more class about it. I still hated it too!

You are the Minority, most republicans defended his every move until he left office. Only THEN did you hear Repubs say "hey, I didnt like that thing he did! You just never saw me say it! But I did, really"
 
If the tea party movement was made up of one person, and that person was Glenn Beck, who believed in and promoted the John Birch mantra, Madeline's thread would have been valid. Fortunately, as we all know, the tea party movement is made up of many individuals from various backgrounds and beliefs, who do not all agree on various aspects of governance.

Madeline,
You have engaged in logical fallacy with your thread. Furthermore, the John Birch Society is not and never has been the issue. The Constitution and the proper adherence thereto is the fundamental issue.
 
Which of Bush's policies were found to be unconstitutional?

Found?

No one went after Bush.

But heck..lets go:

Warrantless wiretaps. Violation of:
Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure. Ratified 12/15/1791.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Torture. Violation of:
Amendment 8 - Cruel and Unusual Punishment. Ratified 12/15/1791.

Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

Holding civilians with out trial. Violation of:
Amendment 6 - Right to Speedy Trial, Confrontation of Witnesses. Ratified 12/15/1791.

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

I could go on..
 
You are the Minority, most republicans defended his every move until he left office. Only THEN did you hear Repubs say "hey, I didnt like that thing he did! You just never saw me say it! But I did, really"

Approval ratings for Bush and Cheney amongst conservative Republicans were 75%-80% at the end of Bush's term.

Depends on self-identification.

Here's his approval ratings from 2004 forwards. Immigration reform began in earnest, Jan. 2007, note the inability to hold the slide after?

Gosh then it must of been a whisper.

Because the cheerleaders overwhelmed the naysaysers on the right. Bush was Liberal about race and ethicity. Everything else he was conservative.


Just how in the Hell are you supposed to know that?
Look at the date I joined up on USMB..... then get back to me.

I practically got ran off from a couple of offroading forums b/c I was yelling about Boosh in their off topic sections.... They try to keep politic chat to a bare minimum. I finally realized they were right. It was'nt the right venue for it.
I now reside here at USMB to put you liberal whackjobs in your place.


"Tea baggers" was coined by FOX news.

Deal.

Wrong again..... your batting 0 for 1000 :clap2:

That's where I personally heard the term used for the first time.

FOX NEWS.

That's history.

That's the fact.

FOX takes this stuff down..because they are a propaganda outfit. Fortunately, people have captured it.,

Keith Olbermann Reminds the Teabaggers that They Coined Their Own Name

Just b/c you "first" heard it there dont mean they started it... I remember who started it, and it wasnt Fox..... I can remember being apalled that AC 360 used it on his show, b/c I knew what it meant.... and yes, I did hear O'Reilly use it, but he found out waht it meant and stopped it on his show (at least from him saying it).

Your full of shit and you know it... in fact, I am done with this thread for now, b/c you bore me.

Laters, Im going to work on my truck.

I dont understand how wanting to follow the Constitution and not spend ourselves into oblivion is hate.

That is not the point of the Op, Avatar. The Op is about the direct line between the Tea Party and Glenn Beck to the John Birch Society....a connection few tea party people likely know of or would welcome.

I dun know a single American who does not want the government to follow the constitution, and virtually everyone is very alarmed by the spending that has gone on (especially since it would appear so much money was wasted).

I am not trying to pin the hate badge on every Tea Party person; I am only trying to rouse you to guard against those who would (Glenn Beck, etc.).
 
Approval ratings for Bush and Cheney amongst conservative Republicans were 75%-80% at the end of Bush's term.

But if you listen to them here on USMB, you'd think none of them actually ever supported the guy. :eusa_whistle:

You did start the thread, with this title: Tea Party Is Recycled John Birch Society Hate Rhetoric
 
I hate communists. Don't you?

Depends on who you mean, Revere. People who support repressive dictatorships known for killing their own people? Of course.

Hippies deluded into thinking they can create a utopia? No, not really. Everyone is entitled to be an adolescent once...for a brief time.

Another false claim from Dumbot.

One may disagree with a variety of a President's policies and preferences while still supporting that President -- especially when, as was the case with President Bush -- his opponents were so vastly inferior to him.

At the time W was President, many of us were critical of SOME of his policies -- like his failure to wield a veto pen to the vast spending measures foisted upon America by the liberal Democrat Congresses and like W's own support for the TARP legislation toward the end of his second term.

I'd still take W in a freakin HEARTBEAT over the dumbass socialist currently infesting the White House.
 
I get the feeling Madelbrain either has me on ignore or is afraid to debate me.

If she is such a Weiner, er I mean Winner, why is she running away?

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

What the fuck is wrong with you? This forum, and this thread, is not about you, you sniveling moronic twit. Your towering intellect is matched only by that of rdean.... In fact, perhaps you two could 'debate' each other. The two moronic superpowers of each side. Now that would be one to entertain the masses.


Well obviously this forum is about me from your perspective or you wouldn't go chasing me about the forum. You protest too much in that regard.

If I'm soooooooo stupid, how come you got owned by me so easily? What does that say about you?

You got those quote of me saying bigoted things about muslims they haven't said about themselves yet?

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
