I'll cheer the day a real fiscally conservative party comes into existence regardless of what they want to call themselves. Seems to me that's what the tea party activists are pursuing and I support that. |

Yep, they look like real fiscally conservative to me.

Yes, being anti-socialist is fiscally conservative. Being in denial sucks, don't it.

I fail to see your point from the photos you provided. or are you trying to pass Obama off as fiscally conservative? |

No, there's another implication being made. It's an attempt to discredit those that don't toe the line of the "fundamental" changes being made to the United States.

And by the way, there is no leadership in the GOP to turn on...No leadership whatsoever, that's why I bailed on the party...Both Republicans and Democrats suck as they exist now. In the past both had their merits..no more.

You said:
I find the pictures I posted seem to be at odds with your statement above. I also was interested to find that Dick Armey was a lobbyist for a pharmaceutical company at DLA Piper and as the chairman of FreedomWorks which has help organize the teabaggers. |

Hey...politicians from both suck up to lobbyists...don't try to play that card...those that are supposed to represent us only give a damn about themselves...and that includes most of those serving in Congress, the current administration, and those sitting on the bench. The whole bunch of them are corrupt, and if you try to play sides and say that the left is innocent, I'll call you a liar, they don't give a damn about you..all the way to the top, you think that the President cares? How many lobbyists are working for him in theWhite House? Huh? |

You left wingers crack me up. You really believe that your party "cares" for you and everyone else. You knock those that go to the Tea Parties and protest because your told "that's what you're to do". Ignorance. The Tea Parties are all about getting back to what the Founders intended. You all think Marxism has the answers...And you're willing to throw the baby away with the bathwater....that's so dufus.

There is nothing in your posted pics that suggests the tea baggers are not pro fiscal conservation. I fail to see your point still. As for Dick Army being associated with a pharmaceutical company: If he was in washington dolling out money to purchase politicians on their behalf well that would be wrong. But if he is organizing peaceful civil protest against fiscal irresponsibility how is that not what this country is all about? This idea that people who have a motive can't participate in civil discourse is stupid. That would be like saying all of those marching on DC this weekend are gay and thus don't count. Purchasing congress critters behind the scenes is despicable. Organizing civil protest is the American way. |

The funny part is those who post about Tea Parties turning on the GOP were the same who said they were under marching orders from the GOP. Let's get it straight folks. |

All it will take to sweep the next elections would be for a Republican or Independant to say if elected they would repeal all the runaway tax theivery of this administration and then follow through on it.

The actions of the Republicans and the Democrats have proven to be the same. Their retoric is not the same as their actions. They each have increased our debt as a nation. THey talk about doing things to improve the nations financial position in the world but consistantly vote for laws that, when I read the fine print, actually increases the debt we owe. The purpose of government is to make life better for the individual citizen. Our government has forgotten that fact. If you want to make life better for the individual you reduce the public debt, you control the robber barrons excesses. Most important you stay out of the citizens personal bussiness as much as possible.
I used to think this was what the GOP stood for. I was proven wrong under the Bush/Cheney admin. Obama has done nothing so far to reduce the debt. I have to give him some credit for trying to restrict the robber barrons. |

What are the meaning behind these signs? Anti socialist fiscal conservatives aren't a threat to this country. Big Government and this Administrations policies are. Todays politics remind me of an old saying. - "Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas?" - Joseph Stalin |

So where were all these tea parties when Bush signed the $180+ Billion dollar Medicare Part D program? Why no Nazi signs with his face?
The Republican's Iraq War is now at about $700 Billion (and still counting). Why aren't these Tea partiers demanding that we withdraw immediately from Iraq? |

Dick Armey is a senior leader of the republican party. He also leads the tea party patriots. There are no dots to connect. |

Oh yea, it's getting better every day.
Palin backs 3rd-party candidate in NY House race ALBANY, N.Y. — Former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin has endorsed a third-party candidate over the GOP-backed contender in New York’s congressional special election, saying her own party has abandoned its core values. The former Alaska governor, who was Arizona Sen. John McCain’s running-mate last year, said Thursday she was backing Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman over Republican Assemblywoman Dierdre Scozzafava in the 23rd Congressional District race. Palin said Hoffman, a businessman, stands for Republican principles — smaller government, lower taxes and a commitment to individual liberty — and that Scozzafava is more aligned with Democrats. Snip... Scozzafava has been endorsed by the National Rifle Association and former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, but she’s been criticized by some conservatives for her support for abortion rights, same-sex marriage and other issues. Scozzafava spokesman Matt Burns said a vote for Hoffman hurts Republicans. Hoffman has been labeled a spoiler by some, but he’s looking more like a contender lately, with support from prominent Republicans, including former U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson, former House Majority Leader Dick Armey and former presidential candidate Steve Forbes, who endorsed Hoffman on Friday. “The other candidates in this race are far too similar in their records and stated support for much of the Democrats’ agenda in Washington,” Forbes said. Former GOP VP candidate Sarah Palin endorses 3rd-party candidate in House race in upstate NY http://blog.taragana.com/n/former-gop-vp-candidate-sarah-palin-endorses-3rd-party-candidate-in-house-race-in-upstate-ny-205253/ Seems like a very disfunctional 'FAMILY' to me.  |

That the republican party and the tea party patriots are one of the same, and that they are neo something but most certainly not fiscal conservatives. |

Why didn't Bush get jacked because of Medicare D? Answer is simple the pharmaceutical companies made a killing.
