Why Do The Liberals Fear The Tea Party Movement

[Richard-H]

Translation:

Ya, those stupid Tea Party people want to actually REFORM government, cut government spending, cut government ties to Wall Street, and give our kids a future.

I'm scared shit of good, honest, and wise people like that.

O.K, you want to "Reform" government? That line is as old as the hills! We already have the most scrutinized government in the world. Holy Shit! A President can't even get a blow job fron an intern without it causing a national crisis!

Cut government spending! Wow, that's what the conservatives have been saying forever! Do they ever do it? No!

What exactly do you want to cut? Everything that doesn't favor you personally? Do you understand that a democracy is a give and take form of governement? Everything is bargained for - and that's the way it's supposed to be.

What you're for is:
Increase spending for everything that favor YOU and the wealthy. Cut spending that favors the people that need it most. Reduce government workers to slaves, let our infrastructure crumble, do not supply our soldiers with training weaponry or armor. Let poor people dye on the streets.

Cut ties with Wall St.? Another good one! If you really want to cut ties with Wall St., you'll vote Democrat because Republican=Wall St.

And don't give me any B.S. about it - I grew up in Wall St.'s bedroom. My Father was a Wall St. exec., most of my high school classmate work on Wall St., as does my nephew.

I know Wall St. & the Manhatten financial crowd - they love Republicans and they HATE Democrats.

If you don't know that historically the Republican party has always been the Party of BIG BUSINESS and FINANCE, then you know nothing aboout American politics.

"Give our kids a future" - like investing in education? Curbing pollutatants? Dare I say - reducing global warming? Your entirely on the wrong side of the political spectrum on that one.

But wait, my mistake, by "Give our kids a future" did you mean, do everything to protect the trust fund babies from having to work for a living? Did you mean that working class kids should be obedient slaves thru their whole life so that the priviledged can continue being priviledge? Did you mean that they should be protected from the horrors of an economy based on competitive education - so that they can remain ignorant assholes living on their inheritances their whole lifes without need for education and not exposed to the competitive working world?

Oh, that what you meant by "Give our kids a future", you meant YOUR kids, not America's kids.

What is it about the Tea Party? I hear faux racism...I hear faux discrimination.
I just don't understand. Thoughts?

They're not the Federal government-- whom has promised them the party life of wealth redistribution.

There is a mentality out there that is distrustful of any large group of people engaging in something not sanctioned (and taxed) by the government. Remember that nancy pelosi's first reaction to the Tea Party was to suggest it was a plot by the GOP ("astro-turf"). She simply couldn't believe that people could spontaneously come together like that.
Once it became apparent that it was not astro turf, the libs went about trying to delegitimate it. So the attributed the worst aspects of American history to a group of basically middle-class Americans. They do not believe power resides in the people and so when reminded of that they must deny it any way they can.

I'm worried about the deficit, and have been for 10 years or better...I'm really worrying about it with Barry. I think the Tea Party want to change that....they may not be able to, but at least they will give it a shot. I'm worried about our dollar, and so is the Tea Party, if the globe ever goes off the dollar currency that certainly will have a ripple effect in the world.
I would like to see a party that is sincere about cutting out the porkbarrel spending. So the libs can keep with the progressive social mantra....but in the end it will eventually be our downfall.

good grief, IT'S NOT THE FEDERAL GUBERMENTS JOB, to give our kids a future. it's up TO YOU to give your kid a FUTURE. and it shouldn't be on my back to have to WORK to give my monies by force through the FEDERAL GUBERMENT to take care of peope who WONT.

If I wanted to live in a Socialist country, I'd MOVE TO ONE. maybe a few of you should.

The TP is a faux grassroots campaign forged out of seeking a path to escaping the burning bushes. Most of these groups/people were staunch supporters of the Cheney administration and now that some of the Liberal policy chickens are coming home to roost they need to find a new address. Without really moving.

More voters are realizing the national scene has left us hanging, literally. The past four Presidential elections has forced all Americans to faux vote for a Liberal presidency. The only choice was what kind of Liberalism would they choose. One pandered to the crowd seeking social expansion while the other threw out fodder on preventing domestic expansion while both guaranteed foreign and domestic expansion of the federal government. The only visible difference was which ones would be media focused.

I can't speak for anyone else but I don't fear TP. I use it to wipe my ass everyday.

Its clear from the above blithering ramble of moronically mixed metaphores why the Tea Party is feared:

It is too complicated for idiots to understand.

No need to comment I will just keep reading the comics from this post.

If you could actually read, you would have noticed that it was a TP that stated that they wanted the Government to "give our kids a future".

But beside that, what are you saying? Close down the public school system?

By your wingnut standard, you've been living in a socialist country since you've been born - and you're more than welcome to leave.

You have some fucking standards!

Meister, first, for the purpose of clarification, your term "liberal" I think we can safely assume, is used in the context of American progressivism/liberalism and not in its classical context. Classical liberalism (Wikipedia is a good source here) bears a strikingly familiar resemblance to American Conservatism, especially that of the American founding fathers, but no need to get too deep into the weeds here.

I have heard some people say that, as young children, we all start out as liberals. This is not meant as a slur to American Liberalism. As children we all are beholden, initially to those that rear us. In fact the success of parents, in large part, is measured in their ability to successfully wean their charges from the dependence they are accustomed to. Unfortunately, the older the individual becomes the more difficult it is for it to adjust to a state of independence. It becomes even worse when a central government assumes the role of parent and this type of relationship is continued, not only through the individual's life, but over several generations. The classical examples can be found in the U.S. and Europe by examining the American Welfare System and French society in general. The transitional difficulty is manifest in the French's unions' present difficulty in accepting a mere 2 year increase in the retirement age (something U.S. citizens accepted a number of years ago with little difficulty).

But we in America are fast approaching the French problem because of the power that has been afforded to the Unions representing government workers. There is a whole thread or two that might be devoted to this subject, but the point is that both government workers (state and federal) have become dependent on our government for very comfortable incomes, benefits, and retirement. These are all dependent on the largess of the politicians that run our government. Problem is it is not the wealth of the politicians that is being redistributed. It is that of taxpayers like you, me, and others like the Tea Party. There is now an effort by ordinary citizens like the Tea Party to rein in the spending. One can argue whether or not the T-Party is grassroots or Astroturf but that is a sideshow to what is actually happening in the country now which is simply citizens attempting to stand "athwart history yelling, STOP" the spending.

Conservatives/Tea Party types feel that the spending has us on the one way road to perdition. However, there is a problem with cutting spending, at least for Democrats and the left. The whole reason for being of the present Democratic Party is to obtain and keep political power. If not in power they cannot assure its patrons (NAACP, ACORN, SEIU, AFSCME, NEA, AFT...) that they will continue to receive the government largess that sustains them. If those depending on such government lose members and, more importantly, the revenue (from their union dues that are then contributed to the Dems) then the cycle is broken and the Dems' power slips away initiating a cascade effect of ever decreasing revenue and power.

So, what you have seen with the name calling, lying about, and generally nasty stuff has been drastic last minute scurrying around to discredit anyone that might interfere with the Dems cash cow cycle. At this point we should point out that there are many liberals out there that truly believe and keep the faith. These are the ones that us conservatives feel are worth trying to bring over to our side. However, all we can do is lead them to the fountain of information; they must be willing to partake voluntarily. But we should not kid ourselves that those dependent on the current government/Union/Democrat cycle are worth any such effort.

When you find people who call others names you probably have not found an open mind tolerant enough to listen to any argument whose conclusion might question their beliefs. They will say the same of us when our argument proves them wrong. However, what conservative needs an argument when we have the example of France?

The problem is not the progressive social programs - most of those, if not all, are only inacted in order to adjust our soceity to the needs of an ever growing, ever more complex soceity. WE ARE NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE! (unless you are in fact in Kansas, then please disregard).

The problem is that the obsession with capitalism has caused a totally unbalanced - and unfair - distribution of the wealth. This in turn creates the need for social programs.
(Not that all progressive programs are "social" programs).

If we look at history, we find that the greatest growth in GDP was when there was the highest tax rate on the wealthy. There was also the greatest increases in wealth of the working class. This is how to fix our economy and the federal deficit.

Reverting us back to a form of government that hasn't worked since agrarian times, is not going to fix anything. It's just going to cause a cataclysmic humanitarian crisis - and the end of the U.S. as a super-power.

Unfortunately, it seems that only a massive humanitarian crisis will ever wake up the people and the government of the U.S. to do what's really needed. So far the Democrats don't have the balls. But they're wishy washy approach is still a better alternative to the disaster that will occur if the TPs have their way.

Of course, I suspect that if the TPS ever get into power, they will change NOTHING. But they will declare that they have changed everything and everything is different - just because they won.

And besides - they won't have the TP idots on their backs.

The Republican Party is much more afraid of the Tea Party than the Democrats. They are taking the Republican Party right over the edge. From religious extreme to bizarre wacko.

as to "From religious extreme to bizarre wacko," you could make that your siggy.

But we in America are fast approaching the French problem because of the power that has been afforded to the Unions representing government workers.

That's a fallacy. The French have a retirement age of 60, paternity and maternity leave, a full month for baby care after the birth of a child, a full month vacation when you start employment, strictly enforced 35 hour work weeks, employer provided child care, and a host of other benefits for their average workers. I know this because we recently merged with a French company.

My own work week ranges between 40 and 70 hours. I work 6 days a week..most weeks of the year. After 13 years I get a 4 week vacation (it started at 1 week) that I must schedule a year in advance and 3 personal days. That's along with 5 sick days.

I don't think I am atypical.
