Present-Day Republican Rage Pre-Dates the Tea Party

Republican Rage??

Naah. Don't think so.

Obama is running for re-election. Everything he says is geared toward that end.

We all know neither Barry or the DNC would exaggerate anything. Right??

The rest of your narrative is the OPINION of another Law Professor

So Republicans cheering people nlosing their jobs and booing a gay soldier, what it all that? You guys do a damn good job throwing yourselves under the bus, no need to blame others for pointing out the bullshat thats plain to everyone except those that engage in it.

Didn't see where anyone was booing about someone losing their job.

As for the gay soldier.

Last I heard this was America and he or she can voice their opinion about anything. You are always going to have folks who don't approve of gays. Reps, Dems and Indi's included. Does that mean that every Rep, Dem or Indi disapproves. Nope.

Nice to see you paint everyone with the same brush. How AMERICAN of you. NOT.
 
Asher Smith: Present-Day Republican Rage Pre-Dates the Tea Party


For Democrats, at least, Republican rage is the gift that keeps on giving.

At a fundraiser in San Jose last Sunday, President Obama drew applause by highlighting Republican debate-goers: "Has anybody been watching the debates lately? You've got a governor whose state is on fire denying climate change. It's true. You've got audiences cheering at the prospect of somebody dying because they don't have health care and booing a service member in Iraq because they're gay."

On Monday, the DNC followed suit, releasing a video of GOP crowds cheering for capital punishment, screaming that a hypothetical uninsured man should die and booing a gay soldier serving in Iraq. The minute-long video closed by pointing out that "not one Republican candidate... spoke up to admonish the crowd and call for civility."

But as the media picks up on this narrative, they largely overlook the fact that these are not isolated incidents of extemporaneous spleen-venting. True, it may have been during a Tea Party-sponsored debate that audience members stole the spotlight by chiming in on society's responsibility to the uninsured. But this outpouring of conservative rage should not exclusively be read, in the words of Harvard professor Theda Skocpol, as "characteristic of many tea party Republicans." Though it contradicts the Tea Party-focused narrative that has dominated interpretations of the present state of the GOP, this phenomenon pre-dates Rick Santelli's trading floor rant, health-care reform and Glenn Beck.


Yep, pretty much the truth.
The left wouldn't know the truth if it kicked them in their big fat behinds. It is lefty nutjobs that are always in the streets starting shit. Don't blame the tea party or the right for the lefts stupidity.

The only thing plain is lefties like you taking one thing and blowing it out of proportion to make the republicans look bad, when it is the dimwits that do 100% worse. You idiots are soooo stupid.

Yep, pretty much the truth.

"Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home--but not for housing. They are strong for labor--but they are stronger for restricting labor's rights. They favor minimum wage--the smaller the minimum wage the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all--but they won't spend money for teachers or for schools. They approve of social security benefits-so much so that they took them away from almost a million people. They think modern medical care and hospitals are fine--for people who can afford them. They believe in international trade--so much so that they crippled our reciprocal trade program, and killed our International Wheat Agreement. They favor the admission of displaced persons--but only within shameful racial and religious limitations.They consider electrical power a great blessing--but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They say TVA is wonderful--but we ought never to try it again. They condemn "cruelly high prices"--but fight to the death every effort to bring them down. They think American standard of living is a fine thing--so long as it doesn't spread to all the people. And they admire of Government of the United States so much that they would like to buy it."
President Harry S. Truman - October 13, 1948

"Give 'em hell Harry!!" Those words are as true today as they were in 1948. And the sad part is....that the GOP cannot dispute them.

The Republicans don't need US to "look bad". They do that job nicely without anyone's help.

Oh, that's right, we don't watch faux news, so how could we know the 'truth'...:eek:

I heard Ray McGovern, a retired CIA agent whose expertise was the old Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc countries say the propaganda coming out of Fox News is at the same level as Pravda. But I suspect most Russians knew Pravda was propaganda.

I will ammend that to MOST of em. Hows that??

There are way, way to many of them. I would venture to say that half of them could disappear tomorrow and the Govt would run just like always.

I have a friend who worked in DC for the Govt for 17 years. She went and visitied her friends is DC earlier this year. She was flabbergasted. Those friends of hers had no idea what was going on in the country. Why?? Because they live in a bubble. They can't be fired or layed off. They still get their raises and they really could care less how the people who pay their salaries are making out.

Hey. Google is your friend.

For most of Bush's time in office UE was at 6%. He didn't need to create jobs. Most everyone who wanted a job had it. Hell. I had two.

The final year it was at 7%.

Way better than Barry's 9.2% doncha think??

And throwing government workers under the bus by thinking they're worthless fucks lowers unemployment?
 
Poor poor Obama, he can't RUN on his magnificent record of 9.1% Unemployment, 3.50 dollar for a gallon of gas, FOOD PRICES going through the roof, so instead he has to talk about his OWN CITIZENS he SUPPOSEDLY represents about how MEAN some of them can be.

and this one takes the cake...what a lowlife piece of crap..
You've got a governor whose state is on fire denying climate change. It's true.
You people who voted for him should BE REAL PROUD.
Yeah, why can't he be like Citizen Cain and talk about his OWN CITIZENS he SUPPOSEDLY wants to represent and how "BRAINWASHED" some of them can be.

Those Govt workers don't seem to give much of a shit how many in the Private sector are out of work.

In fact they probably could care less because they won't be in that boat.

Yeah my sympathy factor for a Gvot worker is about nil.
