The biggest fraud is the idea that somehow the 2 camps are different. that those with D's next to their name, are different from those with R's next to their names.
Throughout history, the basic platform and ideology has never been questioned or challenged. The idea that america has a right to imperialism, and globalization, and expansion, and that all the resources of the earth are to be unearthed and used until that resource is completely gone and extinct. This is a way of thinking that every single president has shared since the birth of the nation.
Thats why I think politics is a complete lie. Its a joke. It seems pointless to vote these idiots in year after year, hoping, praying, maybe, please maybe, they might change things.
The definition of insanity is to continue doing something again and again, even when you know the outcome will be no different. Voting in politicians, when we know, that last election, last year, last decade, the last president didnt do squat to help us.
It is clear to me that every politician is the same. That universally the rule is that you essentially have to sell your soul to be a politician.
For me, Bush is and was evil. But I never understood those people who thought if only we could get a dem in office things would be better. Obama's actions have proven me 100 percent right. Obama is as clueless as Bush ever was. We are in the middle of 2 wars, that just like Bush, Obama thinks are winnable. And we are in a Depression economy. Obama has done precious little to combat global warming.

To keep you in the dark, they all pretend.
I know most people here hate the Tea Party movement but the whole point of the Tea Party is to vote in new blood.....and vote out those that that play the political game......it doesn't matter if its right or left....we just want new people in office that don't have favors to dole out....
good luck with that. good luck with finding new blood that will not be corrupted by money and power. i thought the tea party movement was about lowering taxes? isn't it Taxed Enough Already?
It's not just about taxes...it's people that are tired of the corruption.....I would be glad to pay any taxes if I knew it was going to help the needy or our country, But I do not want to pay taxes to to bail out a bussiness that has fail. I do not want to have my taxes raised when congress has an automatic pay raise annully. Yet let this country go down the drain because they have other agendas favoring themselves and their friends.“We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution.” Abraham Lincoln0 -
so let me get this straight aerial, you are tired of the corruption? where the hell were you and your teabag tossing friends when bush was in office?? there was corruption the likes of which had never been seen and most likely will never be seen again. am i to believe that everything that administration did was ok with you?"You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

I believe Bush is corrupt also . . . I never found an organization that was not biased until now. . . The Tea Party is not right or left.......that is the reason I became a supporter.......we more than likely do not always agree on all political views, but, everyone is sick of the corruption and the lies....

HAHAHA tell me another one, please..... not biased?? roflmao....when your teabagger meetings and protests are sponsored and PROMOTED on fox news then by definition it can not be unbiased. end of discussion.
i am willing to bet that you never cared about politics until obama got elected. that is why people like me ask "where were you when bush was in office". if you really cared back then you would have been outraged then. but if you did care and said nothing about it then you are a hypocrite.
everyone in the tea movement is not sick of lies and corruption, they are angry because the american majority has abandoned their ideals. end of discussion, again...."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

What did you do about the corruption then?....and what are you doing now?
i wrote my congressmen, attended antiwar protests, wrote a letter to the white house, gave money to organizations that i believed in, donated money to various candidates. i basically stayed informed. what did you do? probably nothing but sat around and complained about it like you are doing right now. how you can say that this administration is as corrupt or more corrupt than the prior one is shocking."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

Sorry but you are wrong....The Tea Party was started without Fox.....I have not recieved a dime from fox...they just happen to cover a story that the main stream media does not really want the public to know about and when they do happen to mention it it is always in a negative way....How can you, someone that doesn't even know me, know so much about the reason I am a Tea Party member....to bad you can't have an Intelligentl debate with out resorting to name calling....“We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution.” Abraham Lincoln0 -

meaning... drop out. don't watch the news. Stop caring about everything that is on the news. There is much more important things to care about, like the things you can control, your family and friends, doing what you want to do...
I should follow my own advice... what am I doing here on AMT?Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden. You are free... free to do what the government says you can do.0 -

the tea party was started without fox, but fox took it and ran with it. they promoted it and these groups sent out instructionl emails on how to disrupt townhall meetings.
you have not received a dime from fox?? i did not know rupert murdoch was giving out money to everyday americans. what does that have to do with anything?
the mainstream media did not cover it because they did not feel it was news that a bunch of crazy right-wingers and racists were going to protest with lipton tea bags. kind of a stupid concept, and not worthy of mainstream news coverage. what was news is when teabaggers started showing up at townhall meetings with guns.
i do not know you and i do not care why you joined the tea party. based on your posts on this board maybe because everything is seen in black and white and is easy to understand? like in church, jesus good, satan bad... it is taxes bad, programs bad, health care bad, obama bad, freedom good... sounds like sesame street caveman logic to me. how about this, if you hate programs so much, dont call the fire department if your house catches fire, dont call an ambulance if you get hit by a car, don't call for a war in iran, don't put your trash out at the curb to be picked up, don't take WIC the next time you have a baby and need assistance with food and formula, don't call in the national guard when you are affected by a natural disaster, don't take social security and medicare when you get to age 65, and homeschool your kids because all of those programs are funded by government money. if you are against taxation and programs you should not be able to benefit from said programs. but you are american, you are human and selfish by nature like all the rest of us, and you will benefit from those programs just like the rest of us."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

teabagger meetings and protests are sponsored and PROMOTED on fox news
No one sponsored me
these groups sent out instructionl emails on how to disrupt townhall meetings.
I never recieved one of these emails
they did not feel it was news that a bunch of crazy right-wingers and racists were going to protest
The African American with his gun at the protest was a racist? or is your name calling only intended for white folks? By the way ther are all races in the Tea Party
based on your posts on this board maybe because everything is seen in black and white and is easy to understand?
Such as your opinion of me...because I am in agreement with the Tea Party I am racist? I am crazy?
if you hate programs so much, dont call the fire department if your house catches fire, dont call an ambulance if you get hit by a car, don't call for a war in iran, don't put your trash out at the curb to be picked up
I'm Only hating on some programs

You are indoctrinated... and you haven't a clue that you have been.
Otherwise, you wouldn't take whatever you hear or read as the truth. You would at least, double check what you are being told to verify that you are not being lied to. You don't do that. You simply take what you hear or read... and pass it along, verbatium, to us as if it were true. It not. Turns out... you are passing us a lie. What do you call people who tell lies?
You will sit and call people who disagree with you, "Kool-Aid Drinkers"... when the truth is... you've been drinking it for a while and have no clue you did. You are indoctrinated.Allen Fieldhouse, home of the 2008 NCAA men's Basketball Champions! Go Jayhawks!
