   If only those otherwise congenitally destructive Despercrats had nominated Silky as their candidate in 2008. Dang!

   The thunderous collapse of the Democrat Party would’ve reverberated throughout presidential politics for years to come.

   That pompous, arrogant fools deserves whatever he gets. Mr. Lecture the peasants brought low–justice perhaps, finally? That he got so close to the White House says volumes about the weakness of the press.

   You are right. People in Edwards lofty position eventaully believe they are too important as to be immune from law and, therefore, untouchable, which is why they are so often stunned when they not only get caught, but are prosecuted and convicted.

   Ol’ Johnnie was right about his “Two Americas” but not in the way he thought. In one America, people honestly toil, earn, save and help their neighbors. In the other America, they cheat, get caught, and find themselves doing 10-to-20 with a 300lb roommate named Bubba who thinks you have a pretty mouth.

    Here’s the link to the story that Retiredtopo is talking about. It involves an individual claiming the Tea Party banner, and involves a dispute between the hotel and this individual. It’s quite a stretch to condemn the Tea Party movement based on the actions of this one individual…

Plenty of fodder, but one article from TN shows how shows two state legislators who represent Nashville, as well as one Davidson County judge and four Metro Council candidates neglected to pay their tax bills. Care to play “name that party” on all of them? Of course, the article never mentions any party affiliation, but it’s easy enough to figure out. Yep — 100% Dems. Of course there’s still Rangel, Jefferson, Geitner, blah, blah, blah.

    RetiredPoo-Poo said something really stoooopid about Tea Party Nation Corp, not Associated with the individual Tea Parties that are NON-Profit.

    Tea Party Nation Corp. is a for-profit entity created by Phillips in 2009. Other groups in the state that also brand themselves as tea party organizations are set up as nonprofits, and Phillips has been criticized for this difference. On Wednesday, Phillips acknowledged there are dozens of tea party groups in Tennessee and said it may be confusing for people. It’s not a case of having “fake” organizations, he said, rather deviations in political ideology.

    “There are a lot of tea party groups,” Phillips said. “There are certain issues we don’t see eye to eye on.”

    Like what the real Tea Party stands for.

    About the Tea Party Nation…I wish there was some way to stop people from stealing that name and using it in corrupt ways. It makes the true Tea Party group look bad, and of course, the left picks up on this and runs with it as a way to trash the movement. Isn’t there any way to stop this??

    In the kind of society we live in, I don’t believe there is any way to stop it. In fact, I would expect that there will be those who will identify with the Tea Party movement in an effort to discredit it. But I consider it a badge of honor that this is occurring; it wouldn’t be happening if the Tea Party was irrelevant.

    I hope my posting of the article earlier about TPN isn’t considered feeding the troll. When accusations are made such as retiredtopo made, I like to find out the story behind them so that I can respond accordingly, because these accusations will likely be brought up in other venues, and I like to know the facts in order to better respond to them.

    I hope this “man of God” uses a segment to talk about his support for gay marriage and about the Bible verses that support it.

    My religion does not support homosexuality, but I do. I was asked why I was supporting and marching with the homosexuals in parades, when according to the church, homosexuality is a sin. I responded that God gave people free will. God gave people the right to choose-even to choose sin. That’s why there is a heaven and a hell. So I will fight for people to have the right to go to hell if that’s what they choose. I’m not here to judge. I was placed here to fight for justice for all people.
