It’s time to turn off the lesser voices in your movement like the Kossacks, TP.org, MM, MT, Hamsher, Olbermann, Maddow and Sanchez, and start reading or listening to responsible adults.

Or I guess you stay on the sinking ship, your choice.

It just goes to show how much the US has changed in the 20 years (or the 12 between Lockerbie and 9/11 if you prefer) and how we used to not be so full of cry babies. As well as a recognition that those who use terror tactics to attack the US should be treated as the common criminals that they are and not built up into some sort of scary e-vul boogity boogity men.

Seems to be something of a gap in the timing there. In fact, I am at a loss. What possible relevance does Bush 41′s desire to try the Lockerbie terrorists 12 years before 9/11 and the designation of terrorists as enemy combatants have to the current argument?

None – but then, I think I just heard an Arab sneeze so anything is possible.

And for what it’s worth, there is no such thing as a “free market.” “Free market” is just a free pass for the businesses to screw people in a drive to get the most and screw the rest.

And for the record as well, I was one who did not know the term until after it had first been used by the right.

That’s a crock.

” the left had enough sense to google the term “teabagger” when it was first used by the right…”

Or so many of you are intimately familiar with the concept.

“So what do you prefer your tax dollars be spent on, more bailouts for the banksters? Or more invasions and occupations of countries in the middle east?”

None of the above. The Tea Party platform rails against the bailouts of all private institutions. The free market should be allowed to create solutions.

The middle east is not such an easy nut to crack. Personally, I wish we would get out of the whole region, and focus on covert support for internal independence movements. Though many Iranians are coming out now to say that Iraq was the genesis of what is happening now in Iran, I still think the same could have been accomplished through less expensive means, in terms of lives and dollars.

Al Qaeda doesn’t care if you are liberal – I’m sorry, “progressive” – or conservative. You are still an infidel and they have sworn to kill you.

So what do you prefer your tax dollars be spent on, more bailouts for the banksters? Or more invasions and occupations of countries in the middle east?

I’m just pointing out the lunacy can be found on both sides of the aisle,
but then I’m a “Tea-Bagger”

Unlike others, I don’t mind the smutty hyperbole being tossed around. I am trying to get the movement to adopt the moniker, so we can shove it down the Democrats throats til they choke on it. I just don’t like my tax dollars going to such a purpose.
