comparing tea party movement to radical left


Posted: Mar 8, 2010

Article by David Brooks thought provoking.  He presents a compelling argument that the tea partiers are copying the same tactics as the  70s radicals.  Like anyone thought the conservatives could come up with anything new or different . . . although now that dick armey has praised Alinsky, those one-note posters here will need to put a new string on their violin playing "oh the country is being destroyed by the liberals."  To read article just google his name- it is his most recent column.

It Appears The Dominionist Movement Is Using The Tea PartyNov 05, 2013
If it can, of course. We all know the Tea Party has been without a clear leader and direction for some while. The change in the TP's tone from the fixing of what needed to be fixed of its formation to now has been gradual, but today what we hear from them is increasingly fear and disrespect of a national government that is portrayed as their enemy, patriotism seemingly dead. When the Tea Party formed without leadership and specific goal, DH and I speculated whether it would be taken over ...

Radical Left Oregon Official Who Fined Christian Bakery Into ShuttingNov 15, 2016
Commissioner of the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries Brad Avakian gained infamy when he fined a Christian bakery with $135,000 for refusing to bake a wedding cake for a lesbian couple. The owners of the bakery, Aaron and Melissa Klein, turned down baking a cake to a lesbian couple as it would violate their Christian beliefs. Avakian claimed that the Klein’s refusal to bake the cake were not protected under the 1st Amendment, and labeled it illegal discrimination. The Klein’s were for ...

The Republican Party Left Me This WeekMar 05, 2011
I had been so hopeful that our country could stop fighting and get things done, but the actions of the Republican party this week convinces me that's not going to happen. I'm very discouraged and disappointed. I don't want to be a Democrat either, but the Republicans' actions are pushing me that direction. Independents, do you feel left out if you aren't connected to one of the large parties? Maybe that's what I want to do. I'm also thinking, after this week&# ...

The Left Is Teaming Up With The Tea Party To Tank Obama's Trade DealApr 18, 2015
Has a miracle taken place or did some Dems wake up and see how Obama is trying to turn our government into something other than a republic?????FYI, this article is from one of the liberal Dems favorite leftwing websites. :)After years of ridiculing the Tea Party movement’s talk of Obama as an autocrat, the left is now pushing those very buttons. That sounds like a garden-variety pitch from a grass-roots constitutional conservative. Except Covington is no Tea Partier. He is an organi ...

Ten Ways The Occupy Movement Changes EverythingNov 14, 2011
Before the Occupy Wall Street movement, there was little discussion of the outsized power of Wall Street and the diminishing fortunes of the middle class. The media blackout was especially remarkable given that issues like jobs and corporate influence on elections topped the list of concerns for most Americans. Occupy Wall Street changed that. In fact, it may represent the best hope in years that “we the people” will step up to take on the critical challenges of our tim ...

The Tea Party (disgusting And Full Of Vitrole And Hatred) Are Not The Republican Party HopefullyApr 17, 2011
I hope with everything I have in me that the Tea Party does not represent the Republican Party. This is what the Tea Party stands for. They are full of vitriole and hatred. This is not what the Republican party stands for. See comments by Republican Party of Orange County Chairman Scott Baugh, "It's just highly inappropriate, it's a despicable message, it drips with racism and I think she should step down from the committee," said Baugh. "Davenport, a tea party activist, represents t ...

Here are just some of the tactics and rules set by Alinsky that Obama, Pelosi and Reid go by. They all must keep copies of Rules for Radicals in their desks. If you ever read Rules For Radicals it's like reading the handbook that they must read. The ...

The Democrats' Rising Star. A Look At The RadicalJul 29, 2017
As House and Senate Democrats press forward with their quest to destroy Donald Trump's presidency by any means necessary, they are simultaneously focused on finding someone in their ranks who could be an effective presidential candidate for their own party in 2020. Fifty-three-year-old Kamala Harris, who served as the Attorney General of California from 2011-16 and then filled the vacant U.S. Senate seat that had been occupied for a quarter-century by Barbara Boxer, is someone whom they wil ...
