Does anyone speak drivel and can translate for me?Boston Tea Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
See how confused people become when they spew hate for history, science and higher education

I read si modo, willow, and others, and I can only conclude their hatred for our president is based on race. There is nothing else to personally detest the man. Amazing!
Classlessness? We have fringe whingers from the right here who are receiving federal assistance while biting the same hand that is giving to them. That is an utter lack of class.

I've developed a layperson's knowledge of TMese; here's a rough translation:
"I'm a brain damaged idiot who parrots bromides and cuts and pastes things which I don't bother to read."
I am impressed. I would be afraid that my brain would atrophy just a bit if I tried a translation. You are a braver person than I.I read si modo, willow, and others, and I can only conclude their hatred for our president is based on race. There is nothing else to personally detest the man. Amazing!

I'll translate this too:
"I have no reasonable response to the valid critiques of Obama's comments, actions, and policies, so I will play the Race Card as it's the only card I have in my trick deck of 52 Race Cards."

The Tea Party was the culmination of a resistance movement throughout British America against the Tea Act, which had been passed by the British Parliament in 1773. Colonists objected to the Tea Act for a variety of reasons, especially because they believed that it violated their right to be taxed only by their own elected representatives. Protesters had successfully prevented the unloading of taxed tea in three other colonies, but in Boston, embattled Royal Governor Thomas Hutchinson refused to allow the tea to be returned to Britain. He apparently did not expect that the protestors would choose to destroy the tea rather than concede the authority of a legislature in which they were not directly represented.
The Boston Tea Party was a key event in the growth of the American Revolution. Parliament responded in 1774 with the Coercive Acts, which, among other provisions, closed Boston's commerce until the British East India Company had been repaid for the destroyed tea. Colonists in turn responded to the Coercive Acts with additional acts of protest, and by convening the First Continental Congress, which petitioned the British monarch for repeal of the acts and coordinated colonial resistance to them. The crisis escalated, and the American Revolutionary War began near Boston in 1775.
I recall your saying you went to UC Berkeley, too. I am impressed that you have the views you do.I've lived in the Berkeley-Oakland-San Francisco triangle my entire adult life. I had to learn the language in order to understand many of the natives.

See, Boe? It can cut and paste just as you said!
The term 'tea bagger' (as noted in CF's post) doesn't appear on the site you linked. Not once.
Do you even understand the whole concept of the 'tea bag party', aka as 'the tea party'? Did you even bother to read the list at the bottom of your link of some of the reasons why the tea party was started? I doubt it.
The tea partiers chose to use the tea bag as a nod to the Boston Tea Party (taxation without representation) and then modernized it . . . Taxed Enough Already. It was the LEFT media who brought up the sexual reference of the term 'tea bagger' and it is the LEFT who continue to use this term to try and dismiss, insult, mock, make fun of and generally blow off the entire tea party movement as nothing more than some loon fringe thing.
Stop acting as if the tea partiers had any other intention when they chose the name and the concept of sending tea bags to congress as a way to have their voice heard. Everyone knows it was, and continues to be, the LEFT that uses the term in a derogatory way. And for Obama to stoop to that level? Classless and par for the course.
Herein lies your problem...the original tea party, the Boston Tea Party, was rebellion against taxation (payments, premiums) without representation. It was being perpetrated on the colonists by a corporation, the British East India Company.
The modern day equivalent of the British East India Company is NOT the government, which is the vessel of governance WITH representation our founding father's created. It is corporations, like the modern day British East India Company; health insurance cartels that tax (payments, premiums) WITHOUT representation.
A simpler and more concise explanation...the teabaggers are PEA brains.
That may be one of the dumbest thing you every posted you stupid fucking cocksucker. Do you know HOW dumb that had to be to surpass your lowbrow standards?

THEY ARE REWRITING HISTORY.
There are a lot of moderates and conservatives in the Bay Area - we just don't get the attention that the liberals do.
It just takes a few years (or less) in the workforce and as a home owner for an intelligent person to realize how destructive the progressive politics of CA really are.
