There are hundreds of thousands of assaults by liberals on conservatives, especially this past year, that if were done in the reverse, conservatives would be excoriated and persecuted. But such is the life of a conservative, and learning to recognize the hypocrisy is a survival tool. A couple of good books on the subject is Ann Coulter's "Guilty" and John Gibson's "How the Left Swiftboated America". But this latest assault has literally turned physical.

"Time for Obama to go ‘gangsta’ on GOP"
THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!!!!!
I am sending this to virtually everybody on my e-mail list and that includesconservatives, liberals, and everybody in between. Even though we maydisagree on a number of issues, I consider all of you to be true Americansand friends. My friend and neighbor wants to promote a"Congressional Reform Act of 2010 ". It would contain eightprovisions, all of which would probably be strongly endorsed by thosewho drafted the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
I know many of you will say, "this is impossible". Let meremind you, Congress has the lowest approval of any entity in Government and…now is the time all Americans should join together to reform Congress - theentity that represents us.
It’ll be almost impossible and very hard to do, but we need to get a selflessSenator and Representative to introduce this bill in the US Senate and asimilar bill in the House of Representatives. These people will becomeAmerica’s hero's.. Thanks,
A Fellow American

Is Obama a fraud?
Wow. This is very interesting,...
I have always wondered why NOONE ever cameforward from Obama's past saying they knew him, attended school with him, washis friend, etc. NO ONE, not one person has ever comeforward from his past. VERY VERY STRANGE.This should really be a cause for great concern. MA
To those who voted for him, YOU HAVE ELECTED THE BIGGEST UNQUALIFIED FRAUD that America has ever known!
This is very interesting stuff. Sort of adds credence to the idea of The Manchurian Candidate thing having happenedhere!
Stephanopoulos of ABC news said the same thing during the 08' campaign.He too was a classmate of BO's At Columbiaclass of 1984. He said he never had one class with him.
Was he there?
While he is such a great orator, why doesn't anyone in Obama's collegeclass remember him? Maybe he never attended class! Maybe he neverattended Columbia? He won't allow Colombia to release his records
either. Suspicious isn't it???
NOBODY REMEMBERS OBAMA AT COLUMBIA !!!!!!!
Looking for evidence of Obama's past, Fox Newscontacted 400 Columbia University students from the period whenObama claims to have been there, but none remembered him.
Wayne Allyn Root was, like Obama, a political science major at Columbia who also graduated in 1983.In 2008, Root says of Obama, "I don't know a single person at Columbia that knew him, and they all knowme. I don't
have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obamaat Columbia. Ever! Nobody recallshim. I'm not exaggerating, I'm not kidding. "Root adds that hewas also, like Obama, "Class of '83 politicalscience, pre-law" and says,
"You don't get more exact or closer than that. Never met him in mylife, don't know anyone who ever met him. At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago,who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard ofBarack! And five years ago, nobody even knew who he was. The guywho writes the class notes, who's kind of the, as we say in New York, the machawho knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him.Is that not strange? It's very strange. "Obama'sphotograph does not appear in the school's yearbook and Obama consistently declinesrequests to talk about his years at Columbia, provide school records, or provide the name ofany former classmates or friends while at Columbia.

NOTE: Root graduated as Valedictorian fromhis high school, Thornton-Donovan School, then graduated from Columbia University in 1983 as a Political Science major (in the same class as President Barack Obama WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEENIN).
Can it be that BHO is a complete fraud?? More intrigue concerning "The Manwho wasn't there."
Thank you.
I would add the suggestion that all Internet TP users make as good use of their printers, telephones, and coffee pots as possible for copied, phone relayed and face-to-face conversations.
Great use of the new in your notice below, good crossover with strong existing infrastructure;
add a pinch of keep the old and feels like continued progress to me.
No child left behind did not work as expected.
Change we can believe in is still fragile and not from the source that promised it.
The Tea Party needs to remain inclusive to any level of communication and vigilant to see if any citizen is missing from the discussion.

A message to all members of TeaParty.org
Several TP members are wanting to figure out a way to reach NON-Internet users. Here is my answer I am sharing with everyone.
First of all, without Internet access it will be very difficult to contact people. The TP was created around the Internet and social marketing.
However, the staff of TPorg is working on a 3 prong plan to address this issue. Nothing is cut in stone yet, this is ONLY a discussion.
1. we are working with a major processing house to hammer out a direct method to reach tens of millions of non-Internet people. Once/if this takes form, then people can join the educational mailer system by sending us a note, BUT not until it is in place.
2. Dale, and his staff are accomplished speakers. We can make a tour though the Bible belt or any location speaking at Churches of all denominations about God and Country w/o being theologically dogmatic. Also, clubs and Non-Profit organizations.
3.We will encourage people who are not Internet connected to go to their library's and take a Internet basic class (which all the libraries have) and then use the Internet at the public library's. TP chapters can sponsor this as part of their mission. Kool huh!
Do you have any more ideas? We are open and willing to listen!
Steve EichlerTPorg Exe. Director
OBTW - Dale and his staff will be in Washington D.C. this coming week meeting with several high profile leaders. We are expecting some exciting news within a week or so.....(NO, we are not going to join the Elephant or Jack-ass party!)
Is there a directory of contact information for those who are involved at what might be considered the "managerial" level of the Tea Party Organization?
I'm a little concerned about the lack of organization and the lack of "go to" people in this movement on both the national and local levels. I understand and agree that the TP movement should not become personality based and should NOT be identified with one particular personality/politician. I believe that would be the beginning of the end of this great movement. The movement should continue to be based on IDEAS.
On the other hand, there needs to be a way for those of us to more easily contact others in the State/City/Community who are interested and/or willing ot get involved to one degree or another.
On this site for example, there should be the ability to search for members in a specific geographic community. I typed in ILLINOIS and came up with TWO MEMBERS. Now I know there are more than two people in the State of Illinois who have signed on to this effort.
I'd like to try to help create a more effective STRUCTURE that will help and permit people to get involved. If anyone is "like-minded", please feel free to contact me at contribric@sbcglobal.net.
What would Ronald Reagan think of the TEA Party movement today, and what would he think of Sarah Palin? In a recent interview with MSLSD's Hardball and HLN's Joy Behar Show, his left leaning son, Ron, would have you believe President Reagan would have looked down on the tea partiers. Since much of Ronald Reagan's success came from the grass roots, I would have to disagree, as does his oldest son Michael, who played a much bigger role in his campaign.

Look who is giving all the thousands of dollars to these groups. Probably the same ones that gave to Obama before the 2008 election. When you pull up the above site scroll down to the list below and click on the Donations or the IRS forms. If you belong to one of these groups you should speak your mind about this.

The other day I was watching one of my religious shows, "Light of the Southwest", and the guest that day was Walid Shoebat(shoebat.com). Walid is an ex-terrorist member of Hamas and now spends his time using his former knowledge to try to warn America of Islamist activity here on our soil.
What he presented that day in these videos made my hair stand on end, my blood pressure to rise, and stirred an anger in me I never felt before!! Unbelievable!
If your sitting down and have your seatbelt on, dare to watch this show. It's 2hrs long, so if needed save the link so you can watch it all! Everyone in America needs to see this, so please pass it on to your Congressman, Senator, friends and enemies.
Sincerely,

Everytime you hear the lie that Bush inherited a surplus when he took office after Clinton, always keep in mind "Every economic crisis we have suffered since WWII has been the result of Democratic Party malfeasance or misfeasance." There is another tidbit to always keep in mind -- The left lies all the time; they have to.
DECEPTION AS A PRINCIPLE OF GOVERNANCE
It should not be forgotten that Obama has talked about his desire to re-write our Constitution, because it "is a charter of negative liberties; says what the states can't do to you; says what the federal government can't do to you; but it doesn't say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf". Exactly!! They knew exactly what they were doing, and it is not your place, Mr. Obama, to change it. This is the underbelly of the man we now have in our White House. It should not be a surprise. This information was out there, but America was sold on his "hopie, changie" thing.
OBAMA'S 'ACADEMICALLY APPROVED' APPROACH TO HEALTH CARE
The Tea Party movement is under attack again, and this time it's by the very people who recently thrashed the Supreme Court for their narrow decision to preserve freedom of speech. With all the noise Obama and his defenders made against this decision, they are the biggest offenders. A group of big corporate companies have organized a new web site targeting the tea parties under the guise of a grassroots organization. It's a very tangled web of corporations, big labor unions, tons of money, and political slush funds to counter the tea party movement.
ANTI TEA PARTY WEB SITE PART OF SCHEME TO FUNNEL FUNDS
Proclaims the Tea Party movement is a fad
History tells of how the ancient Romans devised a plan in 140 B.C. to win the votes of the poor; by giving out cheap food and entertaintainment, as a way to gain popularity and thereby buy their votes in elections, Spanish intellectuals between the 19th and 20th centuries complained about the similar pan y toros ("bread and bullfights"). It appears similarly in Russian as хлеба и зрелищ ("bread and spectacle").. The Roman poet Juvenal called this phenomenon "bread and circuses," meaning that as long as the senators provided the mass with the essentials (bread) for human survival and gave them entertainment (circuses) to distract them from more important things in life, the clever leaders in power could manipulate and use the people for their own selfish ends, without no one ever noticing it.
This was a clever tactic pulled by the senators, but most of all, it's an interesting study of the human nature and the relation between the people and the State. Even though modern democracy says we're all capable of making decisions for a country, reality tells us a different story. As long as people have a work and a family, are able to pay their bills and watch TV, the rest of the outside world matters little. Their concerns are always primarily those that relate to their own immediate existence, and that is also how they vote in elections.
When the Romans manipulated people with "bread and circuses," they tried to pacify the people with things they knew would satisfy their basic urges. Much like our people in power today use TV and social acceptance to keep us in check and make sure no one tries to find out the truth about what is going on, the Romans realized that people essentially aren't interested in actual politics. For the mass, it's all just a soap opera and a struggle for how much land or money they will end up with, regardless of how the system operates internally. Therefore we hear people today vote on who they think will lower the taxes and offer them a higher standard of living, discussing Bush and Kerry much like discussing the love affair in their favourite TV show. Politics today isn't about finding the right idea, but finding the most popular one, and advertising that to people whom only grasp the symbolic process.
So why did Juvenal attack his contemporaries like he did? Partly we understand that corrupt senators were able to get away with selfishness, as they had efficiently silenced the people and made politics uninteresting. But what Juvenal most likely saw as most threatening, was the declining spirit and awareness of the people. Contrary to popular belief, fascism and fascist States are not systems that want to pacify people into numb robots - they actively force their citizens to engage in culture and activism, based on their individual capability. Rome managed to build an unbelievably vast empire simply because it had such a strong consensus that made each Roman citizen feeling as if being a vital part of the Roman Empire as a whole. Without the people, Rome was nothing, as seen with the numerous revolts that occurred now and then when the people felt betrayed or treated unjust by the senators.
When consensus and spirit broke down, the senators realized that the only way to keep the power together was to oppress people at their own conditions. Similarly, our modern societies today lack any form of consensus or motivational force, outside producing and consuming products and services, hence why our leaders constantly have to repeat political slogans and dogmatic messages via TV, radio and newspapers. Bread and circuses replace consensus, and like all short term fixes, it lasts as long as convenient and then collapse completely. Without the external control, and without the opium of the masses in the form of entertainment and selfish pleasures, people will run amok and revolt against the corrupt leadership.
More than two thousand years later, and nothing has essentially changed. Most people still don't know nor care, about what is really going on behind the smokescreen of all good-sounding profit making in the name of freedom and democracy. Do we believe them? Not necessarily, but as the Romans knew, it doesn't ultimately matter. As long as people are able to feed and enjoy themselves, they request no more, no matter how corrupt the current system is. Partly they're afraid of what they'll find, partly they feel attached to a system that satisfies their basic urges.
Beyond that lies idealism, or the motivation to find and aspire towards higher ideals, even if it means criticizing the system you currently live in. Not all people can do this. But those who can, those few and brave, are always out there and giving voice to their ideas. That is why we the people of the Tea Party Movements are so important right now, it's our calling to change history.
By now, it should be pretty apparent Obama has no intention of a bi-partisan reconciliation on his non-existent [health care] 'Plan' or the House plan or the Senate plan. We all know it's a trap to hog the mike, which is not exactly a meeting. As we speak, Pelosi is scheming a new way to shove her plan through, so why the meeting, when he plans to ram it through anyway? This is another showboating appearance to look 'presidential', when the past year has shown he is anything but. No president would tell you to borrow money to expand your payroll. No president would call his military corpsemen ... multiple times. Jimminy Christmas!
GOP'S HEALTHCARE MOMENT
Hi Everyone,
I just joined up a few minutes ago so I’m new to the TeaParty.org website. The main reason that I have joined up is because I would like to see this movement force the House and Senate to pass term limits. Has this been discussed in detail on here, and if so, what’s the consensus? I’m for two terms in the Senate and Five in the House.... What say you? I think this is a vital step in getting rid of the career politicians.

Over the past 18 months, I have learned more than I ever thought possible, and done things completely outside my little private lifestyle, as have hundreds of thousands -- no millions -- have done. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. What we saw happening got us out of our comfort zone, to become engaged in unknown territory, because the very definition of Conservatives is non-combative, who works hard to earn a decent living, and take care of family.
DEMOCRATS, MEET YOUR BIGGEST NIGHTMARE.
I can almost hear our Founders saying, "Ya done good!"
