“The Coffee Party”.
From their Facebook page -
We recognize that the federal gov’t is not the enemy of the people, but the expression of our collective will…As voters & volunteers, we will support leaders who work toward positive solutions, & hold accountable those who obstruct them.
- beats the snot out of obtusely fighting AGAINST oneself, like the Teabaggers do. (Does anybody else inadvertantly spell it “Teagagger” then have to go back and fix it?…or it is just me?)
And remember to remind your Teabagger (I did it again) friends that unless they make enough to buy their own island, they just got a tax cut under Obama’s rein. (The mainstream “news” isn’t advertising this too damned much…gee I wonder why.) Let’s do what we can to educate the Teabaggers with actual facts, shall we?

Thanks for alerting me to the existence of this site, Darlene.

Americans remember the American Revolution, but how many really know what part the
East India Tea Company played?
Today, we have people (Teabaggers) whose heart is in the right place, but their heads are firmly implanted upside their rear ends.
This is a nice, short article about how non-thinking, half-baked comprehending, irrationality is overtaking our country. It makes we wonder if we’re not like vicious dogs that bite before assessing the actual threat.
… the tea party movement has passion. Think back on the recent decades of American history — the way the hippies defined the 1960s; the feminists, the 1970s; the Christian conservatives, the 1980s. American history is often driven by passionate outsiders who force themselves into the center of American life.
Notice how the movements went like this - civil rights, hippies, feminists, christian conservativism, and now teabaggers. We started out sane and with great ideals, but in the eighties, when REAGAN took over (and started to cut funding for education), all of a sudden, our lunatic fringe instantly began to grow less reasoned and more reactive. Coincidence? Not a chance.
It’s the passion from the people that does ultimately drive the movement of our government. What sucks now is, our passionate people are also our most ill-informed…largely thanks to the very tv “news” programming they watch, and then rail against. (Irony alert.)
Rather than working the system as our Founders intended, the teabaggers are grabbing their pitch forks and running
the monster out of the village, claiming that this is how America all started.
But, “America” is not just starting now. The teabaggers are cutting off their nose to spite their face.
Without a healthy government of, by, and for the people then we will get the oligarchy these teabaggers so desperately fear (as do most of us).
A person with a passion and a half-assed comprehension is a dangerous thing.
