On ‘teabagging’ and other name-calling


So the liberals and their media allies have taken to calling the Tea Parties ‘teabagging’ in an obvious attempt at innuendo.

Well, cool. What, did any of you expect to get asked why people are out marching today? Did anyone really expect an honest inquiry as to why so many folks are upset? Uhhh, no. Wasn’t ever going to happen. The same people who can’t debate in the arena of ideas weren’t suddenly going to change (har).

But it’s all good, and here’s why.

Like all liberals and democrats, they’ve overplayed their hand. Not a small feat when you consider that the Chicago machine has been in office for less than 3 months. They’ve pointed up and yelled “SCOREBOARD!” and assumed that the Bush hatred they fueled over the last 8 years meant that the vast majority of the people suddenly decided to view the world through the same prism that they do.

For me personally, I like my libs overconfident. Lazy. Stupid. Let them continue to live in the bubble they’ve concocted for themselves, the one that says that millions of Americans suddenly want their version of government. Don’t be discouraged when they dismiss you, call you crazy, a traitor, whatever. And resist the urge to say, “Better a tea bag than a d-bag” *looks knowingly at the other side*

After all, that’s their tactics. It’s who they are. They’re not here to exchange ideas. They’re here to tell you your ideas are the stupidest ones on Earth and that you have no right to object to anything they have to say. They’re here to reach into your life and tell you how to live it.

But what they fail to recognize is that today wasn’t something Rush Limbaugh cooked up. It wasn’t something that John McCain or Sarah Palin put together. It wasn’t even something that the Republican party organized. Nope, today was what America is all about: a bunch of people deciding to make their voices heard. Oh, some lib troll may try and claim that we tried to deny them their right to protest the Iraq war, but that’s a dishonest change of subject.

Today was about the folks sending a message. There are more of these parties coming. And let Janet Napolitano label everybody who went to these things as some kind of whacko. In this day and age, as much as looks like the libs control the message, the people can still read the charts and access the legislation. They know what’s going on.

And they know who’s doing it. Let’s build on today. Keep the momentum going. Start by not engaging the name-calling haters. Just nod and smile and get to work perfecting our ideas. And when 2010 rolls around, get out there and get people to pull the lever the right way.

Hopefully, the lazy/overconfident/stupid among the other side will wake up with one heck of a hangover. And with some elbow grease, Pelosi and Reid will have a heck a lot of problems to deal with in Congress.

Let’s do this.

those "tolerant" Liberals/Lefties and their GAY (Tea bag) jokes

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 2:55AM EST (link)

absolutely hilarious… The Tea-bag jokes? NO! The fact that Liberals/Lefties are supposedly “tolerant” is so laughable!

Rachel Madcow never used the words "tea party" once

TNJim (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 3:02AM EST (link)

I managed to make it through about a couple minutes of the opening segment of her show and it was all t-b this, t-b that. I imagine KO had the same spin going, but I didn’t bother to find out. Olbermann makes me naseous, and I was already feeling that way after struggling through 2 minutes of Rachel. didn’t bother with CNN, Yeah the “tolerant” left, funny ain’t they?

I tuned in to see her BS too…. and the Liberal Loon from Air-America that was on with her was hilarious….

“This was nothing like the countless Protest rallies I attended in the 60′s” … lol…. nope, these folks were coherent (not drug induced mind-numbed like you Lefty-loon Lib’s)

And her complaining that CHILDREN were there… “aren’t their Laws about this kind of abuse”…. again, hilarious…. Remember the Nazi-rally Obama-Youth rallies and songs they forced kids into recording for the Election…. Parents had their kids there to TEACH THEM SOMETHING! Constitutional concepts, that Lib’s just ignore and can’t understand. They can’t handle one day of someone teaching something that doesn’t match the Indoctrination Factory brain-washing line….

so I guess I made it through about a couple more seconds of the garbage than you did.

Speaking of the kids, I thought it was poetic justice in that the park in which the tea party here in Kingsport was held is right across from the high school. Those kids probably learned more after school than they did during school.

the CNN twits went on about the Alamo too...

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 3:50AM EST (link)

and how “Beck” obviously needed to pick up a History book as the Alamo had nothing to do with ‘the original Tea Party’ presumably completely MISSING the point that the TEA PARTY events held today were NOT just about the original Tea Party point/concept…. They had ZERO clue and made no bones about not caring that they had no clue – yet pretended to somehow be “Objective” with the Air America Fools coverage…..

Beck spent part of the opening of his show covering the HISTORY OF THE ALAMO and how it was Very Representative of the current Tea Party concept…. “having drawn a line in the sand” and those who would cross over the line and JOIN THE CAUSE!!!

It is great that these Fools continue to be this pathetic…. they are bound to drive a few folks, out of curiosity, to see the other coverage (Fox) and once they see the difference, some may eventually wake-up having discovered the pathetic endless slant they’ve been getting shoveled into their brains for all these/those years they have followed only the standard Left-wing MSM outlets.

I love it at the Capital

JoeG Thursday, April 16th at 2:45PM EST (link)

There were several school field trips that day to the capital.

The only entrance the public can use is through the front steps.

Right though us.

Of course we opened a nice wide path and were very polite. The kids thought it was cool but you could tell most of the teachers were very uncomfortable.

wardrobe non-malfunction. Frankly, I’d rather catch an “accidental” glimpse of Janet’s “assets” than hear the constant t-b references on MSDNC (not a typo). OF course, this isn’t the 1st time Madcow or Olbie insisted on using the t-b reference on their shows. I have “monitored enemy frequencies a time or two the past couple days to see what the spin was.

Who knew that was a dirty word? When people first started complaining that others were using dirty words to describe we rioters and malcontents, I couldn’t figure out which one was the dirty word.

It makes me smug to know I’ve been isolated from leftists well enough to not know their nastiness, but even more contemptuous of them none the less.

“CNN Sucks” in the background and that’s what she was referring to. There were quite a few signs saying that in ATL last night and a lot of that chant.

someone should try to coordinate a permanent picketing protest (24×7) outside their offices there — they want anti-CNN they should get some anti-CNN — targeted specifically to their bias, and calling to boycott CNN and its advertisers, and the like…. nothing to do with tying these things together other than the obvious that CNN’s bias in regard to its coverage of this event as another log on the fire fueling the anti-CNN feelings

Had we implemented what I take to be your preferred policies—no bailout, “spending freeze,” and tax cuts; something along the lines of Jim DeMint’s alternative stimulus plan—we would have millions of additional unemployed Americans, more malnourished children, more cutbacks in city services, a longer recession, slower long-term growth, and higher budget deficits. If most of those people would compare their march pay stub with their april pay stub they’ll see the tax cut. I also saw a lot of elderly participants. Where do think their social security is coming from?

The world is all that is the case.

I don’t know what “teabagging” is. I don’t want to know because the only things I do know about it now are that it’s something lewd and homosexual.

I agree about the name calling. I don’t unless I get pushed to a point where I finally have to tell someone they really are stupid and it takes a lot to get me to that point. However, there does come a time when you have to look at it as being “cruel to be kind.”

Besides, there’s a way to throw the ball back to them by adding the phrase: “if you think you’re that (fill in the blank)…”

Really, try it with any name you want to call them. They shut up fairly quickly.

Guess who the government bailed out? GE’s part in that isn’t widely publicized but they got their share of bailout money, too.

For President Zero to say he wasn’t “paying attention”, for Napolitano to release the HSA report on the day of the events, and for the knuckleheads in the media to make fun of the people who were at these events is just plain stupid. These are the same voters who voted out the Republicans, not because they believed in the Democratic policies, but because they were fed up with being taken advantage of by the Republicans in Congress.

The GOP needs to listen to these people and organize a strategy moving forward that takes this and moves forward with it. It’s clear the Democrats have no interest in having these people vote for them.

The Marginalization Continues

I have just read a number of articles all of them attempting to further marginalize the people who attended all of these events across the country yesterday.

From the CNN Reporter in Chicago to those whom are labeling this as knee-jerk non grass roots, in fact labeling it all as an “astro-turf” movement from an angry defeated GOP; they are all in denial and only go onto villify the citizens that truned out.

The vast majority of the people out there have never protested ANYTHING in their lives. Most of them have been too busy WORKING & providing for themselves and their families. They are outraged and it crosses all party lines on this issue this awakening by the population is a revolution in the return of common sense. THEY ARE DISGUSTED THAT 90% OF EVERY DOLLAR IN THIS “STIMULUS” IS POLITICAL PAYBACK.

I was proud of the turnout across the country & it is encouraging. I am proud that for the most part any politician that volunteered their oratory skills were politely declined. Most of all as angry as they were about the government’s attitude of, “I can’t be broke, I still have checks left”, I have yet to hear of any incidences of VIOLENCE.

Correct me if I am wrong on that last point, but no violence, unlike the G20 or anything sponsored by the ANSWERs of the world took place here. So obviously the Extremists contained themselves; you can sigh a breathe of relief Secretary Napolitano, & for those in the leadership of the Congress they can just keep on issuing their nitwit Marie Antoinettesque statements about their citizens attempts at redress at their own peril.

 

I don't know what it means either.

Well, I paid my taxes and it wasn't too bad ...

MOlsen6 (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 3:32PM EST (link)

I don’t know what to think about these “Tea-Parties”. I paid my taxes last night. Overall, I wasn’t outraged at my tax bill (5.6% of total earnings). Actually, Social Security is just as big a tax for me as the income tax. I thought that the healthcare cost would be the worst one, but it isn’t. Federal Income Tax is first, with Social Security a close second.

When I heard that the Dem’s proposed that the Mortgage Interest deduction would go away, I was really worried, but actually it doesn’t help me much anyways. Neither does charitable giving. I just don’t make much money, so it is hard for me to go over the standard deduction. The carbon tax or cap&trade or whatever they call the new energy tax is going to hurt some, but my cars are pretty fuel efficient. We will just be more careful about taking family trips.

I think the new carbon taxes will destroy “Horse People”, “Out-Door water-craft” folks and the RV lifestyle. These folks will be really upset, but I’m just not sure these tax increases are going to be so bad for me personally. And if we wind up importing less oil from Saudi because of the policy, then maybe it won’t be all bad.

I guess I’m much more worried that the Obama Administration will refuse to allow Goldman-Sachs to pay back their bailout, and will demand the interest coupon as a “tax” on a company that wants to pay back the bailout money but isn’t allowed. This would be BAD …

Well, it’s not like you pretend that you’re not a conservative, so I guess that there’s no particular reason to toss you.

PS: [interrupting] I don’t care what your rationalization is, and your excuses will bore me.

It is not so much about "taxes" today

izoneguy (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 3:44PM EST (link)

but what will happen in the future with uncontrolled, runaway, government spending. We will be able to rely on social security in 15-20 years? Probably Not. What Obama & congress are doing today will ripple out 10-40 years. Most of the congress people will be dead before the pain really comes. It’s what this will do to your children & grandchildren. Do you want you kids to pay 50% tax or more on their earnings from day one? In the US over 50% of earners pay no tax. This is unsustainable. Once the well goes dry what will America do?
Invade China???

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

izoneguy, I guess that if it only starts to hit his grandchildren

janis (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 3:53PM EST (link)

then he’s still okay with it. After all, it’s not HIM that will be paying and that is what seems to be most important to him. How dumb do you have to be not to think that your ox is going to get gored by the wealth of new taxes coming down the pipeline? Don’t answer, izone, this guy is a shiny chrome answer to that question.

 
 

MOlsen6, the cap and trade tax will hurt everybody, not just recreational users.

janis (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 3:49PM EST (link)

It will seriously impact pretty much all businesses which will cause even more unemployment, more foreclosures, bankruptcies, etc. Just because you judge that current tax policies are not particularly burdensome for you singularly, it is foolishly shortsighted to decide that things are much better than the rest of us imagine.

As to what you think about the Tea Parties, it’s apparent that you don’t think them valid which makes me wonder why you are even here on a conservative website. If, by now, you have not read enough or watched enough video clips of the parties across the country to apprise you of their purpose, then you are displaying studied and willful ignorance. And you sound as if you are smugly enjoying it, too.

Santelli versus Hannity

MOlsen6 (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 5:45PM EST (link)

I heard Rick Santelli’s rant that started the discussions about “Tea Parties”. I thought his arguments were valid, and he made sense. The stimulus is just a quid pro quo to pay liberal interest groups back for their support during the Presidential campaign. I have no problems with Santelli. I heard Sean Hannity’s coverage of a “Tea Party” on Fox News Radio last night on the way home and thought it was infantile and moronic. I feel this type of coverage is repulsive to the average voter.

One of the problems that I see is that the government DID NOT bailout Lehman Brothers. I think this was a serious error driven by conservative ideology and not by financial analysis. It also stabbed John McCain in the back. No, he didn’t run a perfect campagin, but when Lehman died, so did his chances. I really think that not saving Lehman was penny-wise and pound-foolish. It has definately increased the scope of the problem, hurt GDP, and significantly increased the amount of bailout money needed to protect the banks that admittedly behaved badly. But they had to be saved. I think these “Tea Parties” have given Obama and Pelosi the perfect reference point for the mischaracterized statement: “We saved the economy, these nuts protested, we got all the money back AND saved the economy, re-elect us!” Forget the logical problems with the above statement; they would be able to make it stick because it is simple. Every major media outlet is casting these “Tea Parties” in an ugly light. They are a media disaster, pure and simple. Republicans can’t win blue states this way, and in order to elect a president, Republicans must do better in blue states and among the disdained “moderates”. You can’t enact policy without us, sorry.

Carbon tax stuff. Every dollar spent here in the US that prevents dollars from going to Saudi is good for us, good for GDP, and makes foreign policy that much easier for us and more difficult for terrorists. My objection to it is that it takes away freedom. It basically means that people who are less wealthy can’t participate in certain activities (horses). That isn’t going to go down well in the Texas Panhandle, but those folks don’t vote Democratic anyways. I see it almost as retribution against poor voters who don’t vote for the Democrats. They are essentially saying “Since you don’t vote for us, we will tax your life-style out of existance, force you to move to a city, and turn you into one of our voters.” Will it kill jobs? Probably. It will hurt exports because it will make our goods less competitive abroad, but it will create at least some new jobs here as our economy adjusts to this new pressure. The real crunch will be replacing coal for electricity power plants, and the associated increases in electricity costs to consumers and industry.

It’s fine by me if the oppressive tax system and unconscionable government overreach screw the producers, the job-creators, and freedom-loving folk. Since I’m an unambitious lout who cares not one whit about the duties that come along with the rights secured for us by the blood of patriots and by the Constitution, I’d rather play to my class envy and celebrate the misfortune of my betters.

When I was in the 6% tax bracket, I was still conservative.

I didn’t want to punish “the rich” because I wanted to be one of them some day.

So I worked hard.

Too bad the next generation’s not going to be given that opportunity.

Guess you’re one of the 48% that doesn’t make jack squat & is perfectly happy letting someone else carry your freight.

Do you really think we can get away with running these levels of deficit spending, or are you being disingenuous?

…junior high school would have given you a lifetime’s worth of double-entendre, Beavis & Butthead style jokes.

Jokes that are beneath the dignity of a reasoned forum like RedState.com.

Jokes like: “Cox stands tall in support of Obama!”

Or: “Maddow had Cox on her show the other night.” (Not technically a double-entendre; people would only interpret it one way…)

Or: “Cox hangs out with a couple of nuts over at MSNBC.”

Jokes like that.

Feeling Mighty Proud

alanh (Diary) Thursday, April 16th at 5:18PM EST (link)

Yesterday’s tea parties all across the nation sends a powerful message to the socialists that the American people will not succumb quietly to their agenda. It is also indicative of the fact that we are the strongest when we stay true to our root principles. This movement will grow stronger by the day and we will attract many more followers as Obama’s socialist policies crash on the rock on the fiscal irresponsibility and government waste.

The truth about most political movements is that they all form around a faithful and resilient core. What made Obama’s movement so much stronger than Kerry’s was precisely its radicalism and implacable enmity toward capitalist America. Why is it that Obama was able to attract individuals such as Buckley’s son and other Republicans, who in ordinary circumstances, would recejt socialism? It was the strength of their confidence and activism.

Hence, those who advocate moving closer toward center and water down Republican ideals such as small government and strong defense are leading us down the wrong path. The Republicans will reclaim the levers of power when they demonstrate that they remain true to the ideals of Reagan and the values of the Republic. People will follow strength, confidence and principled resilience. They will not follow weakness, wishy-washiness and “bipartisanship”. It is time for us to lead. And yesterday we made a significant move in that direction.

 

I think we had a time-travel experience this morning

when we hear that Obama wasn’t aware of the Tea Parties and how Pelosi was completely dismissive of them. No doubt, that was exactly how King George and his court reacted when those rabble-rousers in the colonies started speaking of independence and revolution.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed with the tears of defeated politicians of BOTH parties and at ALL levels over the next few election cycles.
