A leaking propane tank is a joke? When there's a possibility of fire or explosion? Not to mention the implied threat in that act?

Would you take it as a joke if a bunch of liberals went to your house did that to you on the mistaken belief that you're a Republican Congressperson? Especially if there's little children in your house?

Richmond PD on Cantor office shooting
Posted: Thursday, March 25, 2010 3:46 PM by Mark Murray
Filed Under: Congress, Republicans
From NBC's Mark Murray and Pete Williams
As we mentioned earlier today, House Minority Whip Eric Cantor told reporters that a "bullet was shot through my campaign office in Richmond this week."

The Richmond Police Department just released a statement on the shooting. The skinny, per a preliminary investigation: A gun was fired into air; a bullet struck window in down direction; it broke a windowpane but did not cause any additional damage.

The fiscal irresponsibility had been going on for 8 years under the Bush Administration, and yet they only decided to show up when a Democrat - a black man - is elected President. Couple that with all the racist language and imagery, I'm seriously doubting that fiscal responsibility is the primary thrust of the movement.

I agree with that. It went on well before Bush, all the way back to Reagan. Where it got dicey, even when Bush was in office, is when you start bailing out industries that made stupid mistakes with tax payer dollars. That's when people got pissed. I'm sure these folks were there chanting out racial slurs and coming down on the black man:











There's literally hundreds and hundreds and hundreds more just like these, but I got tired of copying and pasting the links. Look out for that old lady wearing pink. She looks like trouble. :roll:

And yet not only have a lot of people and organizations with known Republican ties latched onto the movement, the movement itself is 74% pro-Republican or lean Republican.
I'm not convinced that the movement is as independent as some people make them appear to be.

Uh...yeah, it's a conservative movement. Last I checked, most registered Republicans are not Liberal Democrats. :roll:

Interesting choice, considering that the bullet that hit Cantor's office was not directed at him, but randomly fired:
In a news release, Richmond police said that the bullet had been fired into the air early Tuesday. It hit the front window of a building that houses Cantor’s campaign office as it fell to back earth at a sharp angle.

I have never heard Reagan mentioned by anyone.....anyone I have ever had a conversation with that has mentioned Bush it was never a positive comment...as we all agree he was corrupt also

Well Lucky for him and the others....that was pretty close though

Oh wonder of wonders, another strawman argument. The presence of a few black faces in the crowd automatically absolves the Teabagger movement from this. And this. And this. And this.

:roll:

Uh...yeah, it's a conservative movement. Last I checked, most registered Republicans are not Liberal Democrats. :roll:

So, you discount the fact that the movement has a lot of Republicans but rue the fact that they're attracting Republicans?
I don't mind a reasoned argument, but is it too much to ask for some consistency here?

Years ago the Republican Party used to be populated by all sorts of people from the hardcore conservatives like Barry Goldwater to moderates like Dwight D. Eisenhower to outright liberals even, like Charles Mathias and Ed Brooke.

We need a strong, vibrant, reasoned, and smart Republican Party to serve as the loyal opposition when they're not in power, and a sensible force when they are.

It's really sad the way they've been taken over by the extreme right wing of their movement.

yeah the gop now is a shell of its former self. when even john mccain who was previously known to be able to cross the aisle and compromise will not play ball and negotiate anymore then you know that that party has no interest in any sort of compromise anymore.

And again....the Tea Party movement as a whole is not promoting or encouraging said behavior. As I've said over...and over...and over again but for some reason you are having a hard time comprehending; there are idiots in every group, Tea Partiers included. Should the whole movement be condemned for it? Should all Muslims be condemned because a few of them flew planes into the WTC? I know, another straw man, but I'm doing my best to use the dumbest arguments possible, in order to help you understand. I don't know if I can bring it down any more than that.

So, you discount the fact that the movement has a lot of Republicans but rue the fact that they're attracting Republicans?

I've been perfectly consistent, and if you had decent reading comprehension skills you'd see that I was asked if there were any policies I disagreed with. I said,

One of the policies I don't agree with, is how they have let some Republicans latch onto the movement. I personally wouldn't let any of them speak at a Rally.

I guess I should have been more specific, because I know it's hard for you to keep up. I was referring to Politicians. I don't agree with Republican politicians latching onto the movement in order to milk the support of Tea Party supporters.

WaveCameCrashin

when the leaders of this gov, Obama ,Pelosi, and others use Marxist class warfare prpoghanda to stir up and encite anger and jelousy against certain citizens. Whom is provoking whom ?

When they brazenly and openly use our hard earned tax dollars pay off and buy off each other and we sit here as american citizens and witness what is stealing and theft right in front of us. Who is provoking whom.

The truth is there has been no violence from the any of the tea parties or any of the town hall folks unless you forgot about the guy that had his finger bitten off by an Obama supporter or the black Tea partier who was ruffed up by the SEIU THUGS because he was handing out don't tread on me Flags.

But given the fact what these politicians have done to the american people the last 16 months with their smears and languge they have used . The american people have beeen very forgiving and Tolerant I would have to say.

Except you yahoo's don't represent the American people. You represent a small, indoctrinated bunch of flag waving couch potatoes. America, along with the majority of Americans, is evolving.

And you've chosen to remain on the island, watching the boat sail away over the horizon, followed by the sound of jeers, insults, banjo's, and the clanging of pitchforks.

John McCain is one of the main reasons why the GOP is a shell of its former self. No room for RINO's, vote them out. He is playing the game now because it is an election year.
