Tea Party goals

[Lonestar_logic]

What is the goals of the tea party, just shutting down America, destroy America, Make America as pure as the Tea Party? So far the goals seem to restore America to a time when tea party people were comfortable?

Limited the size of government, strong national security, eliminate excessive taxes, eliminate the national debt, eliminate deficit spending, protect free markets, abide by the constitution, promote civic responsibility and maintain local independence to name a few goals.

Which do you have a problem with?

So, have the goals of the Tea Party ever been achieved in America's history?

Answer my question, then I'll respond to yours.

From 1776 until LBJ.

Then the wheels fell off.

[ TITLE: 11pm, JULY 25th 1967 ]

PRESIDENT LYNDON B. JOHNSON: Law and order have broken down in Detroit, Michigan. Pillage, looting, murder…

VO: Only a few years before, President Johnson had promised policies that would create a new and a better world in America. He had called it “the Great Society.”

[ TITLE: President LYNDON JOHNSON, 1964 ]

JOHNSON: The Great Society is in place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind. It is a place where the City of Man…

VO: But now, in the wake of some of the worst riots ever seen in America, that dream seemed to have ended in violence and hatred. One prominent liberal journalist called Irving Kristol began to question whether it might actually be the policies themselves that were causing social breakdown.

IRVING KRISTOL: If you had asked any liberal in 1960, we are going to pass these laws, these laws, these laws, and these laws, mentioning all the laws that in fact were passed in the 1960s and ‘70s, would you say crime will go up, drug addiction will go up, illegitimacy will go up, or will they get down? Obviously, everyone would have said, they will get down. And everyone would have been wrong. Now, that’s not something that the liberals have been able to face up to. They’ve had their reforms, and they have led to consequences that they did not expect and they don’t know what to do about.

Silt 3.0: Baby It's Cold Outside (first half)

Today, you liberals and progressives want to burden this country with a NEW round of your untried, unproven, extremist plans and programs without fixing the last round of damage brought on by your irrational and unrestrained exuberance.

Only this time your exuberance is being monitored and we will not be moved by the assassination of a beloved President to acquiesce to your childishness.

We have enough of a track record to go on to prevent our just sitting idly by, this time, and watching you unleash another wave of your unique brand of hell (albeit with the BEST of intentions ) onto America. A hell which YOU won't be able to fix when it finally becomes clear to you guys it really is HELL. And a HELL we all will have to live with.

No.

NO!

HELL NO!!!

Typical progressive POV.

LOL with your time machine

The Tea Party values ARE the Constitution's values and the Constitution is evergreen, timeless.

If they weren't your collective sorry asses would be marginalized in this society.

Who has decided the Constitution's values are timeless. Since the adoption the Constitution has been changed, interpreted and implemented differently for different parts of the population, hundreds if not a thousand times. The 27 amendments are the tip of the iceberg.
Add to that, where has it been decided that tea parties values are the same values as the Constitution?

Well, when the states decide to take back this country (using the Constitutional mechanism described by Mark "THE GREAT ONE" Levin in his book, The Liberty Amendments) from fruity nutcakes who think like you do, you will have lots of time to Google the answers to your questions.

You boys and girls have made an un-Holy mess of things and it's time for you to get a well deserved time out!

What the Tea Party doesn't realize is you can't go back, you can only move forward. The past is what you choose to remember.

Typical progressive POV.

LOL with your time machine

Libs need to know that Back to the Future is more than a movie title.

What is old is now new. We always look to the past for a clue to the future.

Only fools don't learn from the past.

Libs.

You is fools.

Simple:

Create a White only Evangelical Theocracy.

They are starting to scare even their corporate backers.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Some silly wrote, "No, back to a time when America last worked well and was happy, strong, prosperous and when Americans knew the greatest freedom." In fact, he longs for when longevity was still limited, and if one was not white or male, one had a horrible time climbing through the barriers; a time when Civil Rights was despised by most whites.

"You want to make America into something that can not support our continued happiness, strength, prosperity and freedom?" That is what the silly is attempting to prevent: a continuation of happiness, strength, prosperity and freedom for all.

The socon values people are at their lowest in per capita of the population, so they cannot reasonably expect to socialize the country as it was in the 1950s.

I think the question should be what has the TP accomplished, not what they believe or what they have tried to do but what have they done. No, shutting down the government nor making the current congress the most unproductive in history doesn't qualify.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The TPM has accomplished nothing.

The constitution should only be changed via amendment. Currently we have judges basically adding and subtracting things as they see fit. The process of changing it was laid down in the document itself, and its not 5 of 9 unlelected lawyers deciding who has what rights.

The goal is to return America to a supposed wonderland ca. 1950s.

Not going to happen.

Stop spying on people, eliminate the IRS since it's now being used as a weapon against political enemies, deStarkify the Republican Party

Unless they have read TP information or been to a TP rally, I question anyone's qualification to pass judgement on what the goals of the TP is.

Which do you have a problem with?

Without any actual suggestions on how these things are to be done, you might as well be saying:

Rainbows after every shower.

Flowers.

Cookies.

Nice things.

Pretty.

Shiny.

Just think. Without all that spying, Republicans would still be trying to find out who was behind 9/11. Remember, they thought it was Saddam until Bin Laden TOLD them he did it.

Or if we're lucky, maybe Merkel or some other foreign leader will talk about it while we're spying on them
