Title: Where is the Tea-Party, why have they gone so silent?
Post by: 225for70 on December 15, 2010, 06:36:25 AM
Just curious. ???

Many people are saying that many members of the (tea-party) are actually republicans in disguise? I haven't heard anything from any tea-baggers in regards to this monstrous tax package.

Plus, we're still dealing with the lame-duck bubbas in the Democrats, who are trying to ram as much foolishness through the works, before they get booted.

Tea party members saw Rand Paul flip flop on whether he'll actually vote to stop the debt ceiling, as he promised.

They'll see him cave on the bush tax cuts to the tune of 800 bill added to the deficit.

They'll see him cave on the war spending, etc.

It's not just him - all of these new tea party sweethearts will turn into Mini-Boehnners by February.

Oh, they'll still talk about "changing up washington", but they'll vote lockstep with the repubs on any issue that matters.

And the momentum they worked so hard for will be gone by 2012, where obama will probably win.
