exactly why it should be called the neo-tea party caucus

If so-called

If there are so-called "fundamentaiist" Christians (aka Neo-Cons) involved in any Tea Party activities, they are still trying their darndest to bring about Armageddon. Send them all packing. They are literally as dangerous to the future of America as extremists/terrorists of any religion.

If they are stupid enough to attack Iran

Submitted by eilif on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 21:37. Permalink

which is what they are planning. It will not go well for America! Iran will shut down the Gulf. Just one Rocket will stop all shipping route in the area.
The flow of oil will stop. What do you think the price of oil and gas will be. It is a nightmare scenario. Also it will cause all the Arabs to join forces against Israel which they would destroy but the US will back Israel it will be a war of wars. The US does not have enough manpower to occupy Iran. Iran has over 1.2 Million highly trained troops and they are already planning for the attack. They know it is coming. Imagine 1 Billion Arabs united. The pressure from the worlds countries lacking oil and shipping will force the US to back down eventually.

The economic impact will be felt world wide.

This is a war that should be stopped but it won't be.

Who is the Tea Party Caucus

Who is the Tea Party Caucus and who made themselves President of the caucus? Psyops in my opinion. This is BS. There is no such as the Tea Party Caucus.

This is just another attempt

Submitted by Greg Butko on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 21:02. Permalink

This is just another attempt by the Neocon Republicans to represent themselves as allied with the Tea Party Movement. This is what we have come to expect: characters like Newt Gingrich and Sarah Palin claiming affiliation with the Tea Parties.

Well, we need to make statements loud and clear that we in the Tea Party do not support continued wars, undeclared wars, wars under NATO or the UN, and we certainly do not support wars between other nations.

War is never good - except for those who make money on war, or those who use war to consolidate their power. This is another way of saying NEOCONS.

AAHhaaa The Spin Continues !

The Tea Party movement was a "Revolt" against "Taxation", without representation ! As was the original Boston Tea Party.
How these spinners, whoever they are, can turn it into a pro war movement is beyond me.

Oh yea, lets divide and conquer the American people, that are against taxation and "Against" war !

Creeps !

We need to get active within the tea party to let them know we will not stand for the neo-con foreign policies.

I spoke to Scott Tipton (CO) who is running for CO congress and he is for the ridiculous Neo-Con foreign policy.

No more holding back. The anger against wars needs to be shown as much as the anger against Obamacare, etc...

They're a lost cause

I see no more need to intermingle with them than to intermingle with the Green Party, Democrats, or anyone else. I'm not donating my presence so they can look like a bigger crowd on camera and be perceived as a bigger force to be reckoned with.

Keep in mind, they have been the controlled opposition from the very beginning. All of this is just social engineering of sorts. Big money went into the development of the Tea Parties, with the intention of diverting interest away from Ron Paul and retaining the pro-war Republican mindset that was so carefully crafted with Bush's propaganda machine.

They will never change to support peace because they were not designed to do that. It's been a neocon project since day one. Bill Kristol talking at the Philly Tea Party is the culmination and epitome of all they stand for.

yup yup yup!

I agree, this has been and continues to be controlled by fine money insiders. I MEAN LOOK AT SCOTT BROWN FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!!! The TeaParty in MA got used BIG time.

Tea Parties are not a lost cause

Submitted by AnnInFL on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 20:31. Permalink

I have been involved with local Tea Party groups from the beginning. They are very receptive to hearing the liberty message. These people are reading and learning and scouring the internet. I have brought my Ron Paul signs to their rallies and talked about the Federal Reserve at 9-12 meetings. We are slowly opening their eyes and changing their minds. My husband was a Fox News neocon, and I have changed HIS mind. He is a doctor who gives speeches on healthcare freedom to many Tea Party groups. Now he denounces the war mongering neocons that he used to support like Mitt Romney! He sees how the wars have been a waste and a scam. It takes a little time to change people's minds. We just have to be patient and persistent, to counteract the neocon influence on the Tea Parties.

the Tea Parties will always be represented and controlled the same way. So even if you have huge numbers of people "waking up," you'll read in the paper that the Tea Parties are endorsing (fill in the blank with warmongering neocon's name.)

thats because the media is propaganda and calls mainstream Republicans "tea party" for some reason.

We held the first real tea party and as projected it was hijacked at the first chance by the neo conservative wing to lure the Christian right into their trap, and lure they did. There may become a time when we must rename the "tea party" to the "liberty tea party" to differentiate those that are awake from the ones being tricked into the support of the status quo. The only difference is that we will be ignored by the MSM, but eventually not the GOP as they will be begging for support to put their criminals in positions of power. We must take a stand and demand that real educated individuals hold those positions that truly adhere to the constitution. This grand experiment scares the elite as if the sheep ever had a chance at true liberty it would spread like wildfire. Any liberty supporters that attend a tea party event should take signs, wear shirts, and let it be known to those around them that they are supporters of the true tea party and not partisan hackery. I just wonder how much support from independents Dr. Paul and the liberty movement truly has at this point? The only way we are going to be recognized is if we have the power to affect elections as the far right has done with their hijacking.

A 3rd Party will emerge....

Submitted by columbus on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 20:01. Permalink

According to George Celente, a 3rd party will emerge and it won't be named the Tea Party. It is probably time to come up with a new name with a new platform that reflects what we liberty minded stand for. Trying to change the Republican Party may not be possible since establishment Republicans will just say what the public wants to hear and then follow their own big government neocon agendas. If we are in a 3rd Party it will be much more difficult for the establishment Republicans to hijack the movement. Running as a Republican is the right thing to do for 2010, but for 2012, I think we will need a 3rd Party.

Anyone have a name suggestion?

Gerard Celente says it will be a "Progressive Libertarian" party

I don't like the term "progressive", but I can see a third party forming as a populist movement of liberty-minded, socially moderate, fiscal conservatives. These people will be anti-war, anti-corruption, and anti-fascism/corporatism. They will be pro-Constitution and in favor of honesty, transparency, individual choice, self-reliance, and free markets. They realize that the federal government out-of-control, bankrupt, and cannot keep its promises. They will demand that the federal government bring home the troops, seal the borders, dramatically downsize, and return power and control to the states and the people.

I am trying to "set those BRUSH FIRES"...

Submitted by PatriotsUnderGod on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 19:45. Permalink

...and not too many people are "interested" it seems!

I dare say too many professing patriots FEAR government, at the end of the day...they FEAR losing their jobs if they do not cave and become a Neo-Con Tea Party supporter...they don't want to speak up themselves; at church, at home, and at work...well, we could always invest our money into PAYING someone *NEW* to do our talking for us!

Instead of buying Mark Levin's book, and giving it to someone to "wake them up"; the book that primarily attacks Democrat statists ... HINT!

Instead of listening to the same old national voices who are going to support the same old "lesser of two evils" in November; how about we promote one unemployed guy in Michigan to BREAK the mold!

A self-educated Christian perhaps; who RAN for State Representative with these same ideals two years ago; who is a campaign manager for a Liberty Candidate ... because he too is SICK and TIRED of all the subterfuge of our political system by professing Christian politicians that only serve to INCREASE the size and scope of government - and a complicit, and assistant media?

Support my idea "Not just Another Radio Show" ... so all of us can have a UNITED, BOLD, and UNAFRAID Tea Party voice(and not live in daily FEAR of the New World Order)!

Between those sick of lying Republicans, and those who will run for precinct delegate instead of keep looking over their should for Jesus' 2nd coming every time there is an Earthquake; or every time Israel says "the boogey man gonna get me" - I think we have our audience!
