Tea Partiers attack Karl Rove !!
http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/09/conservatives-trash-karl-rove-after-he-insists.php?ref=fpblg

<snip>
Malkin seems to agree. "Rove came across as an effete sore loser instead of the supposedly brilliant and grounded GOP strategist that he's supposed to be," she wrote. "Expect more Washington Republicans to start sounding like Tea Party-bashing libs as their entrenched incumbent friends go down."

Dan Riehl, a conservative who blogs at the site RiehlWorldView.com, went the farthest in his attacks on Rove, calling on Fox News to "suspend" him and "investigate" reports that he tried to tip the balance for Castle in behind-the-scenes meetings with tea partiers in Delaware last year.

"Especially given his comments on Fox News tonight, until this is resolved, it seems impossible to trust Rove as an objective analyst," Riehl wrote. "In terms of the conservative movement, we should not simply ignore him, but proactively work to undermine Rove in whatever ways we can, given his obvious willingness to undermine us."

According to one of the key tea party leaders who helped push O'Donnell over the finish line last night, Delaware 9/12 Patriots executive director Russ Murphy, Rove held a meeting with O'Donnell supporters last year where he implored tea partiers to bury the hatchet with Castle and get behind a Republican that could win. Speaking after O'Donnell at the Delaware victory party last night, Murphy delivered what he said was "a message" to Rove after the Hannity interview.

It has been my impression of the TP that it is upset because their heroes have RUINED everything.

Which is NOT true about our heroes.

Edited on Wed Sep-15-10 12:13 PM by GreenTea
(the republicans) will have to live with it....

AND SO WILL WE!

If we don't get everyone we know out to vote Democratic on November 2nd -

Those extremely easily hackable electronic voting machines all over the country are just waiting to be hacked to swing several congressional elections in unnoticed & under publicized areas all around the country....

It doesn't matter another seat, is another seat for the republicans who will do anything & everything to gain just 39 seats to take us back to Bush's agenda of government for the rich and their corporations....

Nothing for the worker, middle-class and small business - only the stealing of OUR tax dollars for rich (deficit raising tax cuts -That produces NO jobs) and government welfare (subsidies) for the corporations, as well giving all social programs (privatizing) to their corporations and no regulations to steal even more.

Deregulation means, corporations can do anything they want and we aren't allowed to know - That's republican corporate deregulation!

15. What's just now dawning on TurtleBoy and the Orange Avenger...
...is that any teabagger who makes it to Washington isn't going there to bask in the adoration of their peers in their exclusive little club -- nope, those people are coming there to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and whether it be Democratic ass or Republican ass isn't a matter of much concern to them. They're on a Mission From God.

Try enforcing "party discipline" on these any of these people, Mitch. Dare ya.

16. Anyone notice a trend amongst repub/bagger women?
When they rebut criticisms made by men, they throw out emasculating buzzwords?

17. Oh geez...Malkin is oblivious...
Tea partiers are extremists. They are the lunatic fringe of their party. Why oh why do
they insist on being in denial about what they are and what 80 percent of the population
thinks of them.

Malkin tears apart moderate Republicans and compares them to the "liberals" who don't like
the tea partiers.

Do they ever think that it's about them? Do they ever consider that there it is not the
rest of the universe, but their own nutty views?

I don't begrudge anyone for having nutty, extremist views and following ass hats like
Glenn Beck. This is America. You're free to be stupid. What I can't take is how
these people act like petulant fools--attacking, eviscerating and sticking their tongue
out at anyone who doesn't feel exactly the same way as they do.

It's really annoying.
