They are so...<i>These are not freedom loving patriots. They are sociopaths.</i><br /><br />ABSOLUTELY.<br /><br />They have no conscience, and they care not a bit who gets hurt. I mean, collateral damage? Jesus. What's wrong with these people. Yeah, I know, sociopaths.<br /><br />Well, the Republican so-called "leaders" need to step in here and lead instead of inciting. That means they're going to have to give up that adrenaline and excitement, but too bad--it's that, or face the consequences when one of these many Deliverance-types sociopaths goes over the edge, as that guy who shot Dr. Tiller did. They can't keep running from the responsibility.Deborah Newellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02527317477388626268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22468479.post-30692233407945446742010-03-25T15:40:38.562-04:002010-03-25T15:40:38.562-04:00These Tea Party protests have to be the most media...<i>These Tea Party protests have to be the most media privileged "activist" movement in history, And nobody likes to tie them to the massive benefits they have receive from Glenn Beck or Santelli on CNBC.

I ...<i>Fox News helped create the Tea Party movement.</i><br /><br />I disagree: Fox News basically created the Tea Party movement. Anything to establish a loyal market segment, you know?<br /><br />I find it hilarious that the Tea Party protesters -- all few thousand of them, at most, that show up for a protest -- claim to speak for all Americans. Over 50,000 people were in Seattle in 1999 for the WTO protests. I knwo because I was there. Where were the Tea Partiers then to tell us (and there were a far lot fucking more of us than there will ever be of them) that we speak for all of America? Where was Fox News to advertise our presence? <br /><br />Where was, well.. Anybody?<br /><br />These Tea Party protests have to be the most media privileged "activist" movement in history, And nobody likes to tie them to the massive benefits they have receive from Glenn Beck or Santelli on CNBC.
