Give Me a Break!
The utter hypocrisy of Tea Partiers is mind boggling. Tea Partiers love to whine whenever anybody calls them out for what they REALLY stand for. Disagreeing with a President on policy is part of what makes a democracy great. Plenty of Presidents have been criticized for their policies. The difference with the Tea Party is that they disagree with President Obama based on his legitimacy and that is IN YOUR FACE RACISM. A Tea Party leader had the UNMITIGATED GALL to speak to the President as if the President was his house slave in a receiving line after the Iowa Straw Poll. “Texas should secede from the union” presidential candidate, Rick Perry, jump started his campaign by questioning President Obama’s PATRIOTIC legitimacy!?!? Sara Palin got all riled up about the questionable source of the term “terrorists” when she was the one egging on campaign rally attendees to yell racist epithets about candidate Obama with her DISHONEST “paling around with terrorists” one liner. Tea Partiers held rallies carrying Obama witchdoctor posters with a bone through his nose and other posters with a Hitler mustache. Tea Party leaders and their arm flopping, lip flapping radio talk show spokesperson and SLY cable news network spokespersons label President Obama as a “national socialist” and a “Nazi”. Leaders of the Tea Party described the President as “shooting hoops”, and “goofing off with homies in the hood”. Tea Party “birthers” are so racist that they can’t even acknowledge that Hawaii is a state.

Elected Tea Partied Congressional representatives demonstrate NO respect for the OFFICE of the Presidency. For the first time in history a Tea Partied Republican representative shouted out “You lie!” during a State of the Union address and raised loads of money from his Tea Party backers in doing so. Tea Partied Republican House representatives can’t even wrap their mouths around the title “Mr. President”. The President becomes “Obama”, “your President” and “Obamacare” in their LIMITED Afro-American presidential vocabulary. Tea Partied Republican Congressional leaders unceremoniously refused to honor the President’s invitations to meet and iron out differences in a collegial fashion ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. Tea Partied Republican Congressional leaders walked out on meetings with the President and actually went so far as to NOT answer the President’s telephone calls.

Tea Partiers constantly chant the mantra that they want to “take their country back” – FROM WHOM MAY I ASK? When they’re acting out on their turf, Tea Partiers have no problems acting like the modern day version of the KU KLUX KLAN WITHOUT THE HOODS, but when they’re called out in public, they’re the first to cry “foul”. Give me a break!

2. The Tea Party is nothing more than a front man for Corporations.
Obviously, how else do they get their funding?
