Are there any liberals with at least a GED here?

Sorry...that WAS asking a lot.

OK...are there any liberals here who can SPELL their names with less than four mistakes?

Yep, still not one accomplishment, just name calling and hate. Good old tea party, home grown terrorists!

And paid for by the Koch Brothers, trying to do away with those pesky corporate taxes and heaven forbid, invironmental regulations. Give be a break, they are more about bigotry, racism, religious control, voter disenfranchisement and basic denial of freedoms of choice regarding our own bodies!

Hi guest: the problem with your argument is that there are substantially more billionaire promoting the liberal agenda such as soros, bloomberg, tom stenyer.

Kock Brothers promote democracy and capitalism while soros et al promote socialism marxism and communism.

I'd love to hear exactly what the tea party has accomplished in its tenure. I want the good and the bad! What is the perception of the tea party within our community?

They have succeeded in dividing the republican party into a non-functioning body.

The chairman of the republican party, Reince Preibus, said on the day he was re-elected for the third time, that the republican party will not exist in its current form, if the GOP loses the presidential race in 2016.

Just guessing that he meant there would be a tea-party faction and a more moderate faction, but no strong umbrella organization.

A loss in 2016 would be the sixth loss out of seven contests, in the popular vote.

Guest 03-28-2015 08:43 PM

Doesn't everyone see that the gang of five, and their beloved tea party have absolutely nothing to contribute only detract and dismiss. It's about the black guy in the White House and how to make sure he has no success, no matter what the price to our country. They are racist hypocrites, period!

I am a registered Republican but would have not voted for Republican President since Bush senior. I am afraid that the current Grand Old Party is totally dysfunctional and embarrassing.

I'm a registered Democrat and I have not voted for a Democrat for President since JFK. The party has moved too far to the left and we are now living in a country where the general feeling among the majority seems to be "Ask what your country can do for you not what you can do for your country".

Guest 03-29-2015 05:54 AM

Dear Guest: In case you haven't notice Obama doesn't need the help of anyone to assist him in not succeeding. He is doing well all by himself.
Obama has proven unfortunately that anyone can be president and I am afraid he has lowered the bar for the most critical position in the world.

Secondly, calling someone a racist is not an argument, its an accusation and one meant to deflect the true debate, a debate liberals can't win no matter how much they try. Jason Riley or Thomas Sowell are two black men that I would vote for in a New york second because they are honorable and honest men highly intelligent and have proven their ability to do the people's will

Obama is a divider, spiteful and small man who has placed this country both domestic and foreign in great peril...and that my friend has nothing to do about his color of his skin but the rather the content of his character.

You would be wise to reassess your thinking because people like you are complicit by acceptance in the unconstitutional dealings of this man and his Administration

Dear Guest: Following the JFK election I had changed parties. My father a loyal Democrat disappointed ask how I could leave the Democrat Party and my reply was I did not leave them they left me. Today I can't imagine my father, a blue dog Democrat would associate with this far left fringe group. I suspect he would vote Independent.

As a registered Republican I was disappointed that more Republicans did not support Mitt Romney and if they had he would have won. Most of what e spoke of has come true.

Ask yourself in an objective and fair manner do you really believe we are better off with the likes of Obama than we would have been with Romney?

The 2016 campaign is underway. I am not inured with Jeb Bush and wish he had not entered the race. While I am undecided and will be until the day I cast my vote in the primary, if Jeb Bush gets the candidacy I would vote for him as president because the democratic option is going to be another disaster.

My belief is that Obama pulled so far left that we need a push hard right to eventually get back to center

Guest 03-29-2015 07:15 AM

For the very SHORT time Obama was a senator for Illinois he earned the reputation for being the most liberal democrat there!!
So he was left of the far left when he took office.

You can rearrange the spots on a leopard......but when you get all done you STILL have a leopard!

Guest 03-29-2015 10:46 AM

And still he wins, by a large margin, twice. Don't you understand it is you that are the MINORITY!

Ever heard of the silent majority? Stay tuned, you may soon hear from them.

Guest 03-29-2015 01:41 PM

The democratic party has Obama's past 8 years going against them for 2016.
The cry to take back America (make what ever floats your boat about what that infers) will definately motivate enough of the silent majority to make sure the current trend in America gets stopped and reversed.

And backing Clinton is another motivation for a lot of people who do not want more of the same with another candidate who cannot be trusted by track record.

It is extremely doubful the same number of we the people can be fooled again.
And even more doubtfull that all who did not vote in 2008 and 2012 will let that happen again.

Let the good times begin. Now that we are a minority we can start talking back and demanding as those in that status before us.

Finally light at the end of the tunnel.

GOP States Are The Most Dependent On Government


Good news. The tea party states are the ones most reliant on federal dollars, ie the biggest takers. Mississippi comes in at $3.00 for every $1.00 paid, but the first prize goes to South Carolina which collects $7.87 for every $1.00 it sends to DC.

So it seems the southern republican states are on and have been on the gravy train for quite some time. Congratulations you win the prize for being free-loaders.

Great! Being a minority has finally started to pay off. I'm still waiting for the preferential job treatment and other benefits.

Guest 03-30-2015 07:37 AM

And all this time I thought the Bigots in Texas were the worst about being on the Federal dole. They bite the hands that feed them. So now we know that the tea party is full of lazy, shiftless folks that don't want to work, just take the handouts from those of us that chose the democratic way of life. I'll add hypocrit to the laziness,racist, bigoted, selfish, OLD tea party members!

Actually I am very happy with the direction this country has taken in the last 6 years. Our economy is leading the world, our soldiers are not dying in a ill fated war, and we have taken steps to insure that health care is personal responsibility with consequences if not subscribed. We also have a President who cares about the environment and future generations.

I'll use a technique worn out by select participant(s).

So now if one is accepting handouts from the government they lazy, shiftless, don't want to work lazy, racist, bigoted and selfish.
That is a slam against a goodly number of democrats participating.

Guest 03-30-2015 09:49 AM

What the tea party has successfully accomplished is pulling much of the republican party even further to the right, and destroyed the concept of compromise. They over represent the party in primaries and caucuses, nominating the most extreme candidates and pulling more moderate candidates to the far right in order to gain their support. These candidates get elected in reliably republican states, and gerrymandered districts, but lose in evenly contested elections, where a moderate may have won. Sarah Palin cost John McCain a good chance to be president. The tea party claims to be a middle to lower middle class grass roots uprising, but is largely funded by billionaires who care nothing about those people but only care about reducing their taxes and eliminating environmental and safety regulations.

And we haven't been attacked like 9/11, the financial markets haven't collapsed like September 2008, the Dow is hovering around 18,000, unemployment is just above 5%, gas prices are still low.

When President Obama leaves office in January 2017, line up all of your financial statements and compare them to January 2009, the month he was sworn in, and ask yourself 'Am I better off now than I was eight years ago'?

Reagans recovery was built on growth and enterprise. The current stock market bubble is a result of several trillion dollars of borrowed money and trillions in QE by the Fed. I'll keep the money but at least, unlike you, I know enough who to thank -- our kids for letting us charge up their credit card and sticking them with the bill

Also, ironically enough, the artificially high stock market is an excellent example of income inequality which is what the Left wrings its hands over. Go figure ...

Guest 03-30-2015 11:34 AM

Yea and Reagan raised taxes!

Guest 03-30-2015 11:35 AM

Reagan would be called a Rino by today's Republican ( tea party) extremists!
