Question

[Jen]

Gee....upset about my being nasty......and you write something so nasty. Don't hold yourself morally superior when you are incapable of taking the high ground.
Ps I have the sweetest shin bone,

I'm never upset here. Leftists are always nasty, bitter, hateful, and defensive of every little perceived slight. I expect it, smile and sometimes comment.

 

[Jen]

Just look here...the teabaggers still question his birth certificate and we all know it is because he isn't one of "us". This would never have been an issue if he were white. Racism is insidious and masked , like the birther movement.

So when all else fails............ talk about some nasty perverse sex act you practice and pretend some nice family does it.

I never heard the term until the teabaggers called themselves that. I like the way you ignore the content and focus on a word rather than the issue.

Tea Party people do not call themselves that. Quit lying. Just admit you're a pervert.

Keep holding yourself up to being morally superior and offended when people insult you.,,,let me use your words that you describe many if us ..you are nasty, bitter and hateful of every little perceived slight.

Where do you think it started? They had it in their Internet site ..they didn't realize what it meant and the comedians had a hay day with it. They don't anymore, but it is like a nickname ...it sticks, why would you call me a pervert? Is that really necessary? Are you still into s&m .

It WAS the government doing that profiteering, but I understand that there will be something wrong with anything I would use as an example so I'm done with this game.

translation: " O crap, she noticed that I don't have an example because there isn't one"

Judy-1 Jen-0 ;o) thanks for playing....

Sorry. I won that one...............my example was fine. You, just like your pals (Gecko for one) were set to say anything I suggested didn't work. That's one of the oldest lib tricks here.........like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown and then yanking it away. I am NOT Charlie Brown to your Lucy and to me that's a WIN.

Maybe you owe her an apology, Jen because you just implied she's a liar and she's right. They certainly did early on call themselves that.
Their goal was to "tea bag" the WH and who would be the ones doing that...well the teabaggers of course.

I will concede that neither you nor Renee apparently know that there is a difference between someone saying "I am a Tea Bagger" and saying I am going to "tea bag" the white house.

So when you say the Tea Party called themselves "Tea Baggers" you haven't yet shown any proof of it so I still call it a lie.

Guess what, if the majority electorate of those reps keeps telling them to repeal PPACA, than they are representing their voice in The House.

And what if their constituants DO NOT want them to shut down the gov or take the US into default? Many in congress say what the voters want to hear to get elected, then do exactly as they (the elected) wish when they get to DC? And don't think for a minute that this does not happen. Crazy Cruz is a first term senator...do you think he will get a second term?

Crazy Cruz is a first term senator...do you think he will get a second term?

That's why I prefaced my remarks with "if". In addition ,I was specially discussing PPACA. Since you bring up the shutdown and default issue, you do bring up an interesting point. What if the electorate wants the default, does it mean that our reps should say no?

As far as Cruz: He may well get re-elected for being infamous.

Agreed that TP are acting on their constituents wishes, but the percentage of tp devotees is a small fraction of americans, it certainly does not constitute a majority. If we are a representative government, and if TP consists of 10% of electorate, why should they be given all the power?

It sounds as though you would deny power to anyone who doesn't think the way you do.

Fortunately, that's not how it works.

 

[as seen on tv]

this is what happens when people don't understand history.

during the clinton administration there was GOP "government shutdown" too. It went on for a week or more. There was no disaster. Newt Gingrich was speaker of the house at the time.

The only nutcases are the people running around claiming the sky is falling. Please become familiar with economics and history.
