Liberals or democrats? Because there is a huge difference at this time. Republicans or conservatives...you see how this works? Saying that Liberals are the ones attacking women is ludicrous, as ludicrous as saying that Conservatives push the war and spying on citizens agendas. Republicans and Democrats are doing tons of damage all over the place. Are Liberals and Conservatives doing tons of damage all over the place? Sorry to put a damper on the circle ---- er party.

What we need is a happy medium. That is why the Constitution gave more power to the states than the feds, and why the people were supposed to be sovereign. The one size fits all approach does not work. All current federal laws need to be repealed unless they meet a strict Constitutional litmus test showing that the states cannot implement said laws in a way that better serves each state's population.


I agree!


Who is more likely to do that; the extreme liberal left (Obama types) or the extreme Tea Party right?

Who stands for the constitution??

Which of these two groups sharts on the constitution on a regular basis?


(By the way, Bush and Romney are not the ‘right’ I'm talking about nor do they pass the Tea Party smell test)

Neither will do it. Both seek our enslavement. I also agree with you about bush and obomney.

It is just evidence of the fact that "both sides" are against us.

I disagree that neither will.

The answer is liberals regularly shart on the constitution while the Tea Party is the ONLY group actively seeking to restore it.


OUR MISSION

The Tea Party Patriots’ mission is to restore America’s founding principles of Fiscal Responsibility, Constitutionally Limited Government and Free Markets.

OUR CORE PRINCIPLES

FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY means not overspending, and not burdening our children and grandchildren with our bills. In the words of Thomas Jefferson: “the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity [is] swindling futurity on a large scale.” A more fiscally responsible government will take fewer taxes from our paychecks.

CONSTITUTIONALLY LIMITED GOVERNMENT means power resides with the people and not with the government. Governing should be done at the most local level possible where it can be held accountable. America’s founders believed that government power should be limited, enumerated, and constrained by our Constitution. Tea Party Patriots agree. The American people make this country great, not our government.

FREE MARKET ECONOMICS made America an economic superpower that for at least two centuries provided subsequent generations of Americans more opportunities and higher standards of living. An erosion of our free markets through government intervention is at the heart of America’s current economic decline, stagnating jobs, and spiraling debt and deficits. Failures in government programs and government-controlled financial markets helped spark the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Further government interventions and takeovers have made this Great Recession longer and deeper. A renewed focus on free markets will lead to a more vibrant economy creating jobs and higher standards of living for future generations.

If you read their core principles it echoes your desire for power restored to the people.

There are no "sides" when it comes to those people. Only "us" against "them". Now, some of "us" do have different desires. Some of "us" want a nanny state, some of "us" want personal freedom and accept the requisite personal responsibility. Thus, when the time comes, the US will likely have to split into two or more nations.

Unfortunately, even repuklicants regularly demonize the teaparty. The teaparty really needs to split from the repuklicants and form an actual new party. Until they do, I see them as just another set of politicians.

Precisely! That is exactly why I posted it.. to show that this is an issue that both sides of the aisle are guilty of. The sooner we stop all the finger pointing and name calling the sooner we will be able to come together to fight the real evil here which is Government, not liberals not conservatives... but Government as a whole.

Of course they do. Like dems, republicans hate anything that threatens their power and control; the two parties are virtually the same. The only group trying to fix it from the inside is being stifled and marginalized by the two parties.

I couldn’t agree more. We need to dump the two party system and TTP needs to form its own party. I wish we had it now because I sure as heck won’t vote for Obama and Romney is only a slightly better option IMO.

I have no representation in this presidential election…

Are you actually in support of the so called Tea Party Congressmen? Is that what you mean by trying to fix it from the inside out and they're being marginalized for it?

Democrats are just using it as campaign propaganda. They failed miserably at the gay-marriage propaganda and using women's issues is certainly not beneath them in their propaganda war. The Democrat Party is filled with members of DSA whose sole objective is to use whatever issue is convenient for them to push their socialism on an unwilling society.

The only difference, imo, is whether you want to sprint towards socialism or power walk there.

Don't feel like The Lone Ranger. I also have no representation in the government with the possible exception of RP.

You’re oversimplifying it though.

The two sides (Dem and Rep) are one in the same…true, but there are elements of the right that have the answers and want to restore the constitution.

You fail to distinguish between libertarians or constitutionalists and the GOP. Libertarians and conservatives are forced to jump into the same boat as the McCain’s and Romney’s of the party when our views are nothing like those RINOS. Then people like you lump us all together as ‘the right.’

Many on the right don’t subscribe to the GOP…

YES.

Like all politicians, some of those who TTP endorsed have betrayed their promises (I guess that’s to be expected) but they’ve managed to do a few things. Keep in mind that they don’t have the numbers; they are a SMALL minority (until November
)

The GOP hates TTP! They can't stand conservatives who want limited government.

John McCain (R) and Carl Levin (D) wrote the NDAA.
Lamar Smith (R) wrote SOPA.
Patrick Leahy (D) wrote PIPA.
Mike Rogers (R) wrote CISPA

I can't speak for NEO but those guys you mentioned don't represent me!

I don't defend the GOP...I'm a conservative. You said you knew the difference.


By the way, which POTUS signed those into law?

Your sweeping generalizations are going to come back to bite you square in the backside here Seabag. You assume I am a liberal democrat which is about as far from the truth as you can possibly get. I am neither democrat or repubican and I can tell you that I do not appreciate the attempt at trying to pigeon hole my opinion into any traditional political party.

What you, my friend, fail to realize is that not every democrat subscribes to the party platform just as you claim many on the right do not subscribe to the GOP. From what I gather from your posts here while you can recognize the fact that there are varying degrees of 'rightness' you fail to recognize the same for the left and all I am asking is that we all set aside this divisive talk of "right" and "left" and start to set about correcting the problem which is Govt as a whole.. in all of it's factions.

All I am asking here is that we stop all the finger pointing and name calling because in the end what will that really achieve other than making us all look like uneducated bafoons.
