Tea Party Taking On Role of Brown Shirts

The Tea Party is not as grassroots as we are led to believe.  They are under the direction of the ultra-right wing lobbyist group ironically named "FreedomWorks" led by Dick Armey.  Teabaggers get their marching orders and funding from Freedomworks, who in turn gets its money from corporations like Koch Industries.  The money from Koch and other corporations is quietly funneled to organizations like Freedomsworks and Americans for Prosperity to stage what they would like us to believe are citizen protests.   Through obfuscation, fear and intimidation, corporations and the secretive billionaire Koch brothers are determined to control public opinion on issues that might cause people to question their business practices. 

The tactics of the tea party teabaggers is eerily similar to those of the Brown Shirts in the first half of the twentieth century during the rise of Nazism.  For example, at the health care discussions by Congressman, Dick Armey and his henchmen were the ones responsible for training and organizing the hecklers whose only goal was to shout down debate and intimidate anyone who tried to express their own opinion.  These mercenary 'protesters' are waging a war over the control of the public square.

Freedomworks Brown Shirt organizers gave specific instructions how to infiltrate a crowd to give the impression that your agents represent the majority, how to completely shout down all other people, and how to intimidate anyone who tried to disagree.

A recent video clip of tea party teabaggers screaming and verbally abusing an elderly man on the ground who had Parkinson's disease is a sickening but typical display of the sociopathic nature underlying the tea party Brown Shirts.



The sinister overlapping of neo-nazi groups, the KKK, and the tea party teabaggers is no accident.  Freedomworks and the Americans for Prosperity actively cultivate and channel existing hate groups' activities toward its own political ends.  The video shown below on this blog  (Right Wing Crazies & Tea Party United Against Health Reform) shows how teabaggers and traditional racist groups are co-opting the anti-Obama campaign as a 'softer', more politically acceptable form of racism.  The Koch brothers and other large corporations have hired Freedomworks to show these hate groups how to mask their outright racism and twist it into a more news-friendly 'political protest'.  Watch the video and you can judge for yourself if it's working!

Right Wing Crazies & Tea Party United Against Health Reform

Right wing crazies, teabaggers, and Republicans are united in their hatred of Health Reform. It's not really fair to equate Republicans with the klan, however,  because most Republicans don't wear their hoods out in public.



Notice the half-confederate, half-US flag...showing that for some, the Civil War never really ended.

Republican Contempt for the American People

Senator Bunning to the millions of unemployed Americans: "Tough shit!"

Later, Bunning flipped the middle finger outside his office in the Senate to those who questioned him about his filibuster.

His and the Republicans' blatant hatred of the American people should not be censored from news broadcasts for being offensive. It must be reported exactly as it happened precisely because it is so offensive. Americans have a right to know when a public servant in our government is so callous, which supersedes broadcasting protocol.

Will it shock viewers? Yes... and it should! It is the duty of the media to accurately inform us of such behavior.

Bunning did not work alone, however, to block passage of a bill to extend unemployment and insurance benefits to the men, women, and children in the families of the unemployed.  Other Republican Senators took up this cause and continued the filibuster while he took breaks. This clearly was a planned GOP operation.

We never have to look very far to see examples of Republican contempt for the American people.

Don't like corporate welfare? Republicans have a gesture for you.
Want health care reform? Let Bunning give you the GOP response.
Do you want government to work for regular people? Republicans speak with the same voice on these and other issues: Tough Shit!

So the next time a Republican asks for your vote, tell them what they've been telling America, and return their gesture!

Democrats Need to Stand Up

American Independents and Democrats are out of patience. House and Senate Democrats need to stand up and pass health care reform now.

The worst thing Democrats can do is delay the final passage of the health reform bill with bureaucratic fussing or by tending to 'procedural' matters. (Imagine John Kerry on CSPAN giving a nuanced lecture on procedural protocol circa 1831-1845.)

The Republicans and the conservatively biased media have controlled this debate long enough.

Republicans have so far been successful at making the Democratic Congress appear ineffective by blocking every attempt to pass a bill.  They have dominated the media insisting that health care reform will be a disaster.

That's why Democrats need to slam dunk this right in the Republicans' faces. It would reveal that it's the Republicans who are ineffective because they were powerless to stop the bill that they claimed for so long would destroy America.

Call, fax, or email your Senators and Representative and tell them to pass health reform now. Is your representative a Republican? Even better! Contact them anyway - and savor the moment.
republican contempt, GOP, conservatives, neoconservative, shame on republican obstructionist

Boehner vs. Beohner

The neo-conservative walking talking-point (and village idiot) John Boehner is shown here hard at work discrediting himself for our amusement.




I used to think that Republicans and Conservatives were clueless about their rampant hypocrisy. Now I believe they embrace it.

Thanks to The Rachel Maddow Show for putting this together.

(It doesn't really change every day; Republican hypocrisy is off the scale every day!)

I used to think that Republicans were unable to sense their own hypocrisy.

Now I believe that they embrace it!

Going Rogue - "My Struggle" (spoof)



From the Back Cover:


Praise for "Going Rogue, My Struggle"


Sean Hannity says "If you enjoyed how Bush's neo-conservative policies destroyed the economy, you'll love the same tired rhetoric spewed from the fresh face of Sarah Palin."


Sarah Palin speaks up for regular Americans in her new book "Going Rogue" with clever insights like "We eat therefore we hunt!" Who doesn't enjoy some wolf steaks sportingly shot from a helicopter?


"I like someone who can understand what it feels like to shoot a man in his face." - former VP Dick "Birdshot" Cheney.


"What Cheney said goes double for me!" - Republican Senator Larry "Wide Stance" Craig, quoted from a stall in an airport men's room.


"Leaving office was the best thing for Alaska." No arguments here.


Sarah Palin would like to leave you with her admonishment to the Press to "Quit makin' things up!"


You first, Ms. Palin. You first!
