Tea partiers turn on GOP leadership

While the energy of the anti-tax and anti-Big Government tea party movement may yet haunt Democrats in 2010, the first order of business appears to be remaking the Republican Party.

Whether it’s the loose confederation of Washington-oriented groups that have played an organizational role or the state-level activists who are channeling grass-roots anger into action back home, tea party forces are confronting the Republican establishment by backing insurgent conservatives and generating their own candidates — even if it means taking on GOP incumbents.

“We will be a headache for anyone who believes the Constitution of the United States … isn’t to be protected,” said Dick Armey, chairman of the anti-tax and limited government advocacy group FreedomWorks, which helped plan and promote the tea parties, town hall protests and the September ‘Taxpayer March’ in Washington. “If you can’t take it seriously, we will look for places of other employment for you.”

“We’re not a partisan organization, and I think many Republicans are disappointed we are not,” added Armey, a former GOP congressman...
 
It think it is good news, very good news. The Tea Party crowd are extremely upset at the fiscally reckless policies that continue with Obama. GWB was a Republican, yet he spent like a liberal and grew government at a phenomenal rate! Conservatives won't get fooled again. Of course, Obama is making Bush look like a tightwad with his trillions in reckless spending!

Bottom line: Republican candidates need to have "CONSERVATIVE" fiscal values if they want to be elected. That is good news, good news indeed!

Quick, name the last real Conservative in office.

Quick, name the last real Liberal in charge.

Obama is about as liberal as they get.
 
This is good news for the GOP. As the county chairman recently said, "We need to get the freaks out of the party." She's right, and that is exactly what will happen.

This will give the freaks the opportunity to create their own Freak Party.

Good luck to them.
 
Some of us knew this all along. But since they are anti-Obama the libtard minions of the DNC lumped them all into their nice little cubby hole....racist Republicans...which as it turns out....is ANOTHER LIBERAL LIE PERPETRATED BY THE MSM AND THE DNC.

Indeed. They wouldn't believe that it was conservatives, libertarians, and independent voters. Well guess what, that's what it was and will be in the future. Get ready, a third party is a possibility if the two mainstays don't start representing.
 
Not one of you, however, is the quality of a Winston Churchill (look up the full Leo Amery quote above), and Winnie would call you "wierdos" and encourage you to get into your own party, far away from his.

Seriously, we all laugh, but then again many of us do not want a Palin. We want someone who really will cut taxes, stop spending, leave us alone. That's not Obama, Palin, or their supporters.
 
If Rand Paul wins the Kentucky Senate seat, he'd be a better choice than Barry the Manchild.

The chance of Republicans electing Rand Paul for the nominee is about as likely as Republicans electing Ron Paul for the nominee.
