The Tea Party is not socially conservative my ass

Everywhere I look the Tea Party candidates are socially conservative.

Sheer coinky-dink.
Turns out the socially liberal prospects were all too busy tying their shoe laces to run this election cycle.
But just you wait til nov 2012, Hoo BOY, many Shuvs and Zuuls will know what it is to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!

And I do try to make it a policy not to insult individual posters unless they’ve insulted me first, so if you want to point to the instance where I insulted you, and if it wasn’t preceeded by an insult of some sort to me, I would be happy to apologize to you for it.

I’m still waiting.

Don’t hold your breath. He’s a fucking liar and he always will be.

And then there’s the fact that the board’s conservative posters, being the believers in individual responsibility that we are, very, very, rarely come to each other’s defense in the first place. We each believe that our brethren can handle their own battles, and we know that that they expect us to do the same. I can’t think of a genuine conservative dog pile against a liberal poster in all the time I’ve been here…or even an attempt at one.

This of course explains why anytime Bricker gets pitted, he has to shoulder the burden alone without any other Doper sticking up for him.

Although it doesn’t quite explain how I hallucinated actually participating in threads in which a dozen posters pointed and laughed at gonzomax.

Perhaps. I just want everyone to know that I haven’t walked away from the issue.

Let me ask you this: What can the tea party do for me?

Ask not what your tea party can do for you; ask what you can do for your tea party.

Do something for someone else? And what’s in it for me again? Screw you, commie!

Or why Airman, Jodi, or Ivylass don’t get Pitted at all. (Or if they do, it’s usually a big fail)

He doesn’t have time right now – he has to go out. But he’ll get to you “later on.”

(Has he tried that one yet?)

Look lady, I don’t think you appreciate how much time and dedication it takes to yell at kids to get off the lawn.

If only he were standing in his own yard instead of the yards of random neighbors.

You mean the neighbours in houses they can’t afford, that were bailed out using his taxes???

For $20.

That was SA’s offer in another thread. I’ve already said in this one that I’m willing to stake that much.

Did private homeowners receive free money to catch up their mortgages? If not then I’m afraid I’m being terribly thick here (a possibility I freely admit).

Sean Beck said it, it’s got to be true.

I don’t know, but that was the issue that caused Santelli to make his famous rant on Feb 19th, that is believed to have kick started the Tea Party.

[Bryan_Ekers]

So, Starving Artist, can Brendan Steinhouser be fairly considered a tea-party leader?

For that matter, is there anyone who self-identifies as a tea-party member (or sympathizer) whose political views you like and/or respect?

[Inigo_Montoya]

Nice threadkill, Ekers.

Well, sort of, although nobody gave them money. The government gave lenders money and said, “thou shalt modify thy borrowers’ payments”.
