Next up on the agenda RTW state #24. Ole Bobby King messed with wrong bull.

Public service unions are just that, to serve taxpayers.

Your wonderful Tea Party is tearing your Repub Party apart.

That's the idea. Well, not exactly to tear it apart. More like refocus it. More like make the party more responsive to its constituents.

The Republican Party has gotten old and stodgy, like the Hapsburg Monarchy in the last decade before World War One, and its aging Emperor, Franz Joseph I, who had been in power since 1848. If not for his stick-in-the-mud ways and his vengeful decision to attack Serbia without consideration for or consultation from his German and Italian allies, World War One would not have started, and Hitler would not have risen to power.

The old guard needs to wake up or leave the party.

The Tea Party is simply a grass roots movement to reduce the size of the federal government, a slow, expensive, incredibly wasteful, non-responsive behemoth.

If thats the case , this so called fiscal cliff is a prescription for better times

Dick's Armey of tea baggers is in bed with Grover so watch out for drownings in the bathtub.

[Timber]

The US has already gone over the cliff.

This Grover should have more clout in Washington than the one you're referring to.

[cjett]

Well as usual you are Wrong.

AGAIN

Your wonderful Tea Party is tearing your Repub Party apart.

And once again your comments have proven that you are completely clueless.

But please all you Tea Baggers don't stop thinking the way you do.

Your own ignorance about what is the real problem with your party just makes it that much easier to defeat you time after time.

And just to give you a hint: The problem with your party IS the TEA PARTY.

Kinda like the Progressives in your dysfunctional party right?

Those progressive's are winning elections. So they are nothing like the Tea Party

Putin and Ahmadinejad win elections too...So what? Doesn't mean they know what the heck to do to make a prosperous country. That has been shown over the last few yrs. You need to be told how to live your life? ......Then you got your guy...

Funny that you would use 2 conservatives to debate your position. Yea, Putin an Ahmadiejad are conservatives

[tunnel_rat]

Only you could compare Iran to the USA. But if they are cons, you would really love the libs they got over there....Couldn't argue the point, could you..??? I didn't think you would. But hey..... Now you all have your mommy to tell you how to live, give your allowance, tell you what to eat, how late you can stay out, what street not to cross, you don't have to think for yourself anymore. Someone will take care of that for you...no worries. Nirvana DOES exist I guess.. Happy Trails............

Quit smoking those Tai sticks, or at least share them

The Tea Party got co-opted by the Republican Party and hence inherited all the nonsense and BS the repulsive are notorious for.

All of a sudden the TP were being run by party bosses and endorsing candidates candidates antithetical to the TP's original mantra of freedom and low tax.
