Republican Party Raids the Tea Party

I just looked at his signature and man is that dumb! haha.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't people and the media begin to call these followers "tea-baggers" as an acronym for the Tea Bag Movement and not the sexual connotation some use it as? If so, then aeriel, you taking offense to this is merely misplaced.

Well I'm speaking to YOUR signiture and to me it's RUBBISH for you to think they are just the same period. I'm not thinking of any other *ABC or D* worrd I'm talking about your sign and the *N* word only. I'll continue to use it not in the sense of insulting you because I'm not familiar with it's sexual revelance. If you take the term Teabagger as an insult that's on you.

One thing I'll stop using the term/word when you take down your signiture which to me makes ABSOLUTELY no sense to me. Maybe you can reword it in some other fashion just NOT the one you have up there now.

If our forefathers did not have a relationship with God how do you explain this?
Emblazoned over the Speaker of the House in the US Capitol are the words "In God We Trust."
'In God We Trust' did not become the official U.S. national motto until after the passage of an Act of Congress in 1956... at the height of the post war commie scare.
It first appeared on U.S. minted coins in 1864 as Christian sentiment grew during the Civil War.

The Supreme Court building built in the 1930's has carvings of Moses and the Ten Commandments
True... but it also depicts Confucius and Solon. All are Law Givers.

God is mentioned in stone all over Washington D.C., on its monuments and buildings.
God is mentioned in stone all over the Middle East (including Iran), too.

As a nation, we have celebrated Christmas to commemorate the Savior's birth for centuries.
Celebrated using Pagan rituals of the Yule. The Winter Solstice and the coming of Spring. Which also explains the bunnie and eggs associated with Easter.

Oaths in courtrooms have invoked God from the beginning.

The founding fathers often quoted the Bible in their writings.
So did Hitler, Charles Manson, Jim Jones and David Koresch. What does that prove?

Every president that has given an inaugural address has mentioned God in that speech.

Prayers have been said at the swearing in of each president.

Each president was sworn in on the Bible, saying the words, "So help me God."

Our national anthem mentions God.
True... in the final stanza. Which we never seem to sing.

The liberty bell has a Bible verse engraved on it.

The original constitution of all 50 states mentions God.

Chaplains have been in the public payroll from the very beginning.
Chaplians are part of the military. Rabbis in the military are also on the payroll. Does this mean we are a Jewish state, too?.

Our nations birth certificate, the Declaration of Independence, mentions God four times.
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
Once. Twice, if you assume the Creator as God.


The Bible was used as a textbook in the schools.
And thank God is isn't any more.

I don't really know who started it..and it does not matter....I heard it on here first and come to think about it I have not heard anyone else use the word at all.......all I know people on the MT use it as derogatory name calling to insult others. I’m sure they are not using it as a term of endearment .

I don't knw where you are going with your question. I'm not trying to call nor am I comfortable calling people names. In this case however I'm refering to your SIGNITURE which YOU have appeared to comfortably duck so far and makes no sense to me.

Well if someone could confirm my belief or correct my incorrect comment, I would appreciate it.

To me this is no different from a follower of Reagan being called a Reaganite... or some other nondescript acronym to represent the group/view point of the follower.

And if people somehow use term in a sexually defined manner - that's nothing more than childish and should be taken as a joke. I don't see how or why you would be so offended by this comment. Silly name calling is hardly a rational form of debate.

it would be childish if it were a child saying it...but I think we are all adults here and I expect we all know right from wrong......
Definition of tea-baggers
a man that squats on top of a womens face and lowers his genitals into her mouth during sex, known as "teabagging
I don’t think that is close to the same meaning as a Reaganite

Here is a question for those that preach tolerance...
Is it really necessary to remove a monument of the Ten Commandments from in front of a court house that’s been there for years . . . spending millions in court to satisfy one or two people . . . what about a cross that has been in place over 20 years because ONE person is offended....what happened to tolerance in these cases? And the list goes on

So basically what you are saying is you willing decide to go by the nonsense definition that opponents of your political belief paint you with, compared to the actually intended, non-harmful meaning of the term.

I am familiar with what tea-bagging is...and out of pure curiosity, what do the "tea-baggers" (political group), call them term/action below?

And you're misconstruing my comment from before... it's like a member of the environmental movement being labeled as "green" or "tree-huger".

...
If I preach tolerance.. and you are in opposition... does that mean you preach intolerance?
...
Regarding the monument... i am not sure which case you are specifically addressing.
In the matter of Van Orden v. Perry in Texas... the monument still stands and will stand.
if you are talking about the Alabama case...
Judge Roy Moore was behind all of that. A public official placing the Ten Commandments in a public building... yeah... same thing if a Jewish Judge were to place a minora or Star of David in a courthouse.
...
And... if you lived your life in accordance to the Ten Commandments by keeping them in your heart... you wouldn't need reminders everywhere of what they are.

I don't see in your quote were it says "Separation of church and state"

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"

I think it's pretty clear.

So basically you're saying that because a majority wants something and you feel it's not really a big deal, why not just let the mob be or do as they please? Do you feel the same about things like making English the national language - because at some point in the near future, Spanish speakers will actually outnumber English.. so should we make Spanish the national language because the majority want it?

I think # 6 is: Only hold meetings when Dems get political control.

I want...
The one I want does not have your version of Christianity be the rule of law. Evangelicals, Catholics, Lutherans, Baptists etc. have many different concepts about what the true word of God is. Some claim that others are heretics, heathens or defilers. So, if we are going to have the USA be a Christian nation then it better be the only true word of God. Otherwise, "you will be vomited from the mouth of the Lord."

indeed, perhaps the sour grapes party would have been more appropriate.

or the REDCOATS, since this time the "patriots" are in defense of the multi national corporation...

then, England. Now, The Healthcare industry.

well done, traitors.

I repeat myself why spent hundreds of thousands in court cost alone... to remove monuments that have been in place for years, were is the tolerance...these things should be thrown out of court as frivolous......I never said we need to turn into a Christian Nation I am saying this country was founded on Christian beliefs ....I think it’s unnecessary to strip of its history or culture....I am not even advocating that everyone should be Christian or believe in God.....Just stop trying to remove God from were he is now.
