Teapartiers...the new black...GOP style
today i watched the news and i saw a so-called GOP leader saying some nasty things about the tea party movement
it was a carefully crafted attempt to distance themselves from an angry dissatisfied segment of their voters.
and it came to me that he can say what he wants,
just like democrats used to say some pretty nasty things about race and sexuality
because he is secure that no matter what he says
at the end of the day
they have nowhere else to go.

what remains to be seen is how in the long term they resolve the issues that the disaffected feel are primary
will they do as we have or continue to let the steam build?


for my self and for the record my racial makeup is wholly american and allows me to be unrecognized by any known racial grouping and sexuality is not an issue with me unless i am in fact the one you want to have sex with


im just sayin......

1. The right is going to consume itself with "purity" tests. Comments already
are emerging about Republican moderates not being true to the Free Market principles. Many Republicans will have primary challengers who will be more reactionary. The Republicans are on collision course with history. Something violent is going to happen between now and November. Right wing leadership have to keep this hate going until the election, if they have any hope for their movement. Unfortunately, they are scaring 75% of America away from their positions.
