You know they're right. The GOP and the Neo-Con Sarah Palin just stole their movement right from out under their feet.

All that work that they did and the neo-cons and the Bush supporters steal everything from them.

THAT SUX!

They're even running FAKE teabaggers against Ron Paul.

Well, if I have to pick a side, I'm picking the Ron Paul supporters side.

If they need any help in putting selfish Sarah's face in the dirt, let me know.

I'm happy to help. BAM BAM!

1. I don't know who really did start the Tea Party movement...
...but I'm sure someone on here does.

That said, I like Ron Paul, and I think that is a good video. We are much better off with Paul than Palin and the Neo-cons. Paul's financial guy was Peter Shiff. He's made fun of quite a bit too, but his monetary policies are sound.

2. It is not the first time they have done that.
Pat Buchanan did it to the independent party in 2000 to give bush the votes.

3. It's about time they started speaking up for themselves.
I've been following Ron Paul for the last few years. The tea Part originated during the campaign to elect Ron Paul for president.
The supporters were Libertarians that denounced the wars, nation building and wanted the troops returned home and overseas
bases closed. This group wants a return to the gold standard and advocated investment in gold as a hedge against the dollar.
The teabaggers I read about now don't resemble the Tea party supporters of a few years ago.

Palin has endorsed McCain in AZ. and Perry in TX. and both are being opposed by Libertarian Tea Party candidates. Paul is a Republican
and so are the original TP's. Serves them right for thinking they could be a Republican in name only while supporting Libertarian policies.
Republicans will always eat their own if it serves their purpose.

7. the reason why you can't recognize the true tea partiers
is because they aren't libertarians--they're white xtian racists who are pissed a black man is president.

What Ron Paul's supporters started has nothing to do with fux, mooselini, and the rest of the thug party thieves who stole the name "Tea Party"--it's because they could not muster up an original idea and figure out a name of their own, so because they considered Paul to be a loon, they shoved him to the side and took what he had built and made it their own... kind of like what they did to the first Americans---covetted what they saw and then stole it and marginalized those they stole from.

8. Rand Paul is Pleased with Sarah: Sarah Palin Endorses Rand Paul For Kentucky Senate
Sarah Palin injected herself into another 2010 campaign Monday, with her endorsement of Rand Paul, son Rep. Ron Paul (R-Tex.), who is running for a U.S. Senate seat in Kentucky.

"Governor Palin is providing tremendous leadership as the Tea Party movement and constitutional conservatives strive to take our country back," Rand Paul said in a statement. "Sarah Palin is a giant in American politics. I am proud to receive her support."

Paul also acknowledged that he "has received a generous donation from Governor Palin's PAC."

9. I wonder if that was for support (he was already ahead) or as a bribe
to his supporters?

We're a persistent bunch....(sorry, I know I'm not supposed to be on here unless I'm Dem, but we have cross over issues, honest.)

Vote for Medina in TX , SP is supporting Perry there.... And Medina (Ron Paul tea party candidate) may get more votes than Hutchison per the PPP poll yesterday and force Perry into a runoff with HER -- so today Beck tried to completely discredit her by tying her to 9/11 truthers or else make her denounce them. She said she didn't believe the conspiracy theory but did believe it was good for citizens to question govt.

But neocon blogs are having a field day....

And you won't like her as much as a Dem maybe, but she'd go to bat to fight for civil liberties, and who else running would? And all three of the GOP are outpolling the Dem there, Medina by least. If it helps, this 'best of the lot' bit goes both ways: I will likely end up voting for Jerry Brown in CA. I don't like people buying the governorship....
