As most of you know by now, there are a great number of “Tea-Party” Protests around the Country. Well, count this writer among those who will not be attending. I will explain to as why. The first reason why I will not be wasting my money, gas, and personal time is this; these tea parties are the Neo-Conservative and Media establishment cashing in on a sacred Libertarian Principle. That principle is low or no taxes.
Now while I believe it is commendable that the Conservative movement is slowly moving away from the big Government nonsense of the Neo-Conservative stupor of the George W. Bush Administration. I cannot help but think that possibly the Conservative establishment and the Conservative media establishment is simply cashing in on the supposed populist outrage of the Obama Administration’s devaluing the dollar by the massive bailouts.
Another reason is that I just have an overwhelming feeling of “Why Bother?” I mean, the Democrats are in the majority, in fact, eventually they will be seating their last senator and will have a super majority. The Obama Administration, it seems, is not interested in what we Conservatives or Libertarians think about what he is doing. So, why waste one’s breath, time and gas assembling? I mean, the Liberal Establishment already takes a morbid pleasure in painting people like you and me as a bunch of fringe element extremists, my question is, why give them more ammo? It just does not make any sense to me. Perhaps I am a tad bit cynical, but it seems to me that our time would be better spend rebuilding our movement from the ground up, rather than going out and demonstrating over something that we cannot honestly stop.
Again, I believe the idea of the American people speaking out against what they feel is wrong, is great. I feel that our time could be better spent doing something more productive and substantive, than cashing in on base and animal-like instincts. While some might think that, I am overly cynical and to an extent, I am. However, I prefer to see myself as a realist.
You didn’t attend, because you are a coward!
You are a Wus!
and you sir, are banned. Goodbye!
Anyone else want to be a fucking troll today and get banned from seeing this Blog? Go for it. I’d like nothing more to ban me some more monkey brained fools.
I know it got hyjacked a lil, but there was still alot of out there. and it gives us a chance perhaps to shift some of those traditional republicans to our side…
Well I reluctantly went to the Misguided Neo-con “lemmings of the sea” event ….I interviewed quite a few people and all seem very uninformed and not really knowledgeable about the real relevent issues. It was evident that they were drinking the kool aid from the O’reilly Hannity fruitcake stand. This was primarily just a knee jerk reaction to all the FOX news pre game hype about this “grassroots event” which in reality had nothing to do with a grassroots effort but only Fox news Media Ocre media Hype. Its really sad how the Neo con right wing sector never wants to join in and help America in it current situation that the Neo-cons created the last 8 years…just more of the same attitude with no latitude adjustment….I, Me, Mine mindset…..Give Obama a chance to clean up what the Neo-cons laid on all of us…they had eight years and now they expect magic in three months….get real or just go and be a TEA BAGGER in the tenderloin District in San Fransisco….and make some tax free money selling your SOUL to a gay neo-con in an airport bathroom.
Your opinion of course. Coming from a liberal like you. I’m not surprised.
