How much brainwashing does it take to believe people can change who and what they are. I can't, can you? So any plan that attempts to make major changes to long-standing practices is just another political trick to fool the gullible.
All of their radical suggestions the TP is making means loss of jobs, less buying, more foreclosures, and prolonging the recession...

Lyndon Hermyle LaRouche, Jr. (born September 8, 1922) is an American political activist and founder of a network of political committees, parties, and publications known collectively as the LaRouche movement. Often described as a political extremist, he has written prolifically in these publications on economic, scientific, and political topics, as well as on history, philosophy, and psychoanalysis, largely promoting a conspiracist view of history and current affairs.[1]
LaRouche was a perennial presidential candidate from 1976 to 2004, running once for his own U.S. Labor Party and campaigning seven times for the Democratic Party nomination, though the latter disavowed him and he failed to attract appreciable electoral support. He was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment in 1988 for conspiracy to commit mail fraud and tax code violations, but continued his political activities from behind bars until his release in 1994 on parole. He said the conviction was "a crime against [him] by corrupt elements of the government."[2]
Members of the LaRouche movement see him as a political leader in the tradition of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Other commentators, including The Washington Post and The New York Times, have described him over the years as a conspiracy theorist, fascist, and anti-Semite, and have characterized his movement as a cult.[3] Norman Bailey, formerly with the National Security Council, described LaRouche's staff in 1984 as one of the best private intelligence services in the world, while the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, wrote that he leads "what may well be one of the strangest political groups in American history.
You are going to need a Revolution, I won't let you take much more....you OR Redress.
Hey look, misrepresenting my position again. Are you ever going to actually respond to what I say and not what you want me to say?
Look man, your ONLY answer is to Tax the Rich....I'm not rich.
I'm not paying **** for you.
Obama is proving to be the worst President of this Century...and he is doing it by design.

When I watch TEA Bagger rallies all I see are White people, carrying guns, spewing trash about how Obama is the Anti-Christ, and I just think all this hatred stems from the president being black. I see no Asians, no Hispanics, and Tea Party conventions are held mostly in the southern states and coverage mostly played on Fox News.
The 'grass-roots' of the Tea Bagger Party looks to me like the new KKK except they dont wear White Coats and Hoods.
LaRouche established ties with the Ku Klux Klan and the Liberty Lobby in 1974.[42] Frank Donner and Randall Rothenberg wrote that he made successful overtures to the Liberty Lobby and George Wallace's American Independent Party, adding that the "racist" policies of LaRouche's U.S. Labor Party endeared it to members of the Ku Klux Klan.[43]
By the late 1970s, members were exchanging almost daily information with Roy Frankhouser, who called himself the Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan in Pennsylvania, and who had been accused of being a member of the American Nazi Party. Around the same time, according to Blum,
Look this up... Dr. Martin Luther King, a Republican. Democrats passed the Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan. Democrats fought ALL Civil Rights Legislation from the 1860's to the 1960's. Democrats released vicious dogs and fire hoses on blacks all throught out the south.
The Dixiecrats? Remained Democrats and vowed to vote for a yellow dog, before a Republican. Republicans freed blacks from slavery and put the blacks right to vote in the Constitution. Republicans started the NAACP, affirmative action and the HBCU's.
Democrats blocked the minimum wage passed by Republicans. Over 200 billion dollars have been spent on education, healthcare and job training all during President Bush's Presidency.
Democrats have talked the talk, but Republicans have walked the walk.
Blacks would be wise not to vote Democrat or Republican. The Republican party of today is nothing like the Republican party of the 1960s.
I agree, both parties have gone off track and do not serve the american people, I have hope for the Tea Party to bring fiscal sanity back to washington, I just don't see it, Boehner is a wimp, and a big spender like Bush before him.
The Tea Party needs to stand firm on Cutting the Department of Education, Energy, and cut Defense spending in half like Ron Paul said during 2008 election.
Dept Education needs to be cut back to only set educational standards for the states, The dept of energy was created in 1977 to reduce America's dependence on foreign oil. Thats worked out well... These bloated Departments in DC are usless and waste billions a year on nothing , I worked for the EPA for years and most of it was a waste of tax dollars, until things happened like Katrina where they sent teams in to monitor Air and water for safety, we spent billions on trailers with monitoring equipment, computers, SAT and GPS gear, you name it it had it, after the it was over, it was all stored away and rotted. billions spent and wasted. makes me sick.
I like those cuts but they aren't in Paul Ryan's plan..neither is cutting foreign aid nor subsidies its all about tax cuts for the richest Americans and slamming the middle class with increase costs...the cuts you mentioned are meat and potato cuts
I have hope for the Tea Party to bring fiscal sanity back to washington
Ask any of the ones who voted the Tea Party is good for America and you'll find that they believe Obama is not a Citizen, Obama will use death squads to determine which senior citizen lives or dies, the super rich deserve their ill-gotten gains, giving big corporations tax breaks will mean more jobs, and all Muslims are radicals.

Of course you can find extremeist everywhere, but if we look at those who identify themselves as Tea Party candidates, you have to admit they are extreme almost across the board.

I'm sorry the tea party has produced and elected nutter candidates. I understand your anger. But blaming others is not too effective. :coffeepap

I won't go into what the KKK sees when it looks at rallies that are predominantly composed of blacks -suffice to say, you and the KKK share a similar tendency for distortion.
The actual label "the tea party" happened after Obama was elected, but the same people who are angry at Obama were angry at Bush. It escalated after Obama was elected, of course, since he's farther left than Bush.
LIAR, LIAR pants of FIRE !
They mostly are extremely patriotic. What else?
YO I just had this amazing idea! How about everyone tries to stop taking the actions of a few a-holes and trying to apply them to the 'other side.' Instead, let's just have a civil debate, which include things like facts and manners?
How does that sound to everyone?
An anti-tax movement bringing fiscal sanity back to Washington during a time of record debt and deficits? Not gonna happen.
This is a time to cut spending and raise taxes. It's common sense. The tea party is guided by ideology not pragmatism.
