It Looks Like The Fiscal Conservatives Have Finally Woken Up
« on: April 15, 2009, 05:22:08 PM »
Looks like the crowds at these tea parties are meeting if not exceeding expectations.  You know when things get bad enough for the "silent majority" to finally stand up and let our voices be heard, the folks in DC better watch out.

I believe we need to start a grass roots effort to vote out every incumbent in office and start over from scratch.  Until we show these career politicians that we are serious they will continue to do whatever the fuck they want

I'm glad to hear that the TEA party crowds are large...the only channel we'll be able to see these on is Fox News; I can't see ABCNNBCBSpMSNBBC reporting anything on the events if that's the case.

As you know, Vice President Biden has said that it's patriotic to pay your taxes.

I think I'll find more patriotism with the extremist, right-wing, crowd gathering at the capital in Atlanta in an hour.

There lies the problem....I am with you, but the thing is, you have too many that think the ones in their home district are doing them good and against the others.  It just leads to the same ole bunch getting re-elected.

I can count the number of Democrats that I have voted for in my lifetime on one hand.  However, if we can't get republicans to run against the incumbents, I am perfectly willing to vote for anyone but the incumbent in the next election.  We have to send a message to these clowns one way or another.  I would love to see some of these idiots try to get a real job.

The only mechanism to use in most cases to get rid of these permanent representatives is a constitutional amendment for term limits.

I can too, and the last one I voted for disappointed me greatly.  I too am willing to vote for anyone other than the incumbent....Shelby can kiss my ass, he pissed me off by voting for the $408 billion budget, he has a tendency to turn back to his Democrat ways and did for this vote.  He can kiss my support goodbye.  Sessions on the other hand I would have to really gut check myself before I casted a vote against him.  But it could be done with the proper motivation and the right candidate.
