Obama says to Illegal Aliens to vote for him in America

After everything Obama and the other globalists have done could they all be planning to dissolve thw twoparty system and convert it all into a communist/Nazi style one partydictatorship.

Why was Obama, the globalists, and many democrats demonizing tea parties while Dale Robertson saidthe total opposite in a interview by USWGO Alternative News,demonizing republicans and all GOP Candidates, Mexican RevolutionaryLeaders turningMexicans against Americans and using racial slurs such as frail whitepeople, Teachers starting to tell students that wearing an Americanflag is wrong (Sourced hereand here),getting ready to grantamnesty to millions of illegal immigrants (aka illegal aliens)demonizing anybody against Big Government as republican while the mediaestablishment and system has made sure independent candidates never getelected even though you CAN vote in a independent candidate, and whywas Bush misbehaving so much while in office by attackingenvironmentalists (While the globalists are all for controlling theworld by using environmentalist groups) and causing all Americans tohate the republican party even though there's corruption in bothpolitical parties, and the right left wing paradigm is just a big mediacircus.

Could the globalists that hijacked both the democrats and republicans be trying to abolish the republican party then takingcomplete control of the left side because of foes against globalismsuch as Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Randall (Republican candidate thatbelieves the oil spill was done on purpose), and many libertarians andpatriot group supporters are getting into the republican party insteadof the independent party that never gets elected just to get elected.

Could the Obama and the elite be planning the same tactics as Hitler and Mao, the dissolving of the two party political party system andthe formation of the one party political system like Communist China,Socialist Germany before the Nazi regime and the dissolve of theparliament, and other socialist/communist/fascist nations that have hadtyrannical dictatorships after the dissolving of the two or more partypolitical systems.

Could Obama be granting amnesty and voting rights to millions of illegal immigrants to subvert the legitimatevoting process (Just like how Bush cheated the elections two times)thus getting Obama himself reelected, and keep the democrats in controlof our country for decades to come?

Could this be the beginning of the dissolving of the republican political party and furtherconvert American to socialism, then communism, and then into adictatorship that will work under a world government?

To answer all of these questions it is a major possibility that the very reasonhe is granting amnesty is to get more votes for Obama and theprogressive democrats, that the very reason Bush misbehaved so much andacted like a total ba**ard and idiot was to get everyone to worshipthe democrats and Obama because playing peoples emotions and using goodpolitical groups to fuel the elitist agenda is what the globalists aregood at. Also even though both the democrats and republicans havepolitical corruption and both have Bilderbergers in them by demonizingthe republicans and GOP good enough the people could get angry enoughalong with the Illegal Aliens from Mexico to dissolve the republicanpolitical party and thus there will only be one party to vote for calledthe democrat political party while the independents will still neverget elected because the media traditionally showcases only two majorpolitical parties and that's the Republican Party and the DemocratParty.

So again could this be why hes giving voting rights to millions of illegal immigrants, could this be why the democrats arepushing hard to demonizing all the republicans, could Bush have actedas a horrible president on purpose to create am huge need to dissolvethe two party system and create a one party dictatorship? Well youdecide for yourself what the answer could be!

Tea Party Loses Way, Forgets King-making
Embraces Third-Party Status??
It’s beginning to look like many in the TEA Party have decided that acting in “its” perceived best interest and not in the nation’s best interest is the way to go . . . ho hum, ho hum just another political party that doesn’t understand the difference between winning and vainglory. Truly a sad state of affairs given the TEA (Taxed enough already) Party’s tremendous initial integrity and promise. Rajjpuut believes that thanks to the inclusion of the TEA Party in the affairs of the nation this November, the chances of the Democrats to maintain, or even advance their majorities in the House and Senate have dramatically increased. That is, the once great hope for America, for winning back the country, is proving to be just another short-sighted third party effort.
TEA Party candidates running in primaries, trying to get elected? Sounds like an enormous waste of time and money. Sounds like a sure way to become part of the corrupt system rather than to actually reform it. Rajjpuut would point all TEA Party folks toward the thoughtful example of Puerto Rico and Puerto Rican statehood . . . no, no, we're NOT talking about Obama . . . .
The ultra-cynical Barack Obama would like to make Puerto Rico into the 51st State. If he succeeds, he will actually have created real jobs for flagmakers, wow, the very first success of his misguided regime. Mr. Obama, however, is clearly NOT thinking about jobs for flagmakers or for anyone else. He has embarked on a desperate gamble. He needs to add about fifteen million Hispanics to the voting rolls, keep them in a riled up “revolutionary fever-pitch” and use their votes (expecting to win a split of about 80-20 or 85-15 for the Democrats at the ballot boxes) to dominate the elections of 2012 and 2014 and enshrine the progressive-wing of the Democratic Party as the permanent holder of the White House and both chambers of Congress. If you thought he’d brought us hell on earth in 2009 and 2010 . . . consider the specter of “President-for-life” Barack Obama – doesn’t that just thrill you?
Mr. Obama, passing his desired Immigration “Reform” bill into law and once he becomes “el dictador” (the dictator) here could than impose statehood on Puerto Rico from outside if he chooses to, but that’s the only way Puerto Rico would be dragged into the USA. You see, Mr. Obama doesn’t understand PR politics and the model of PR politics is also the model the TEA Party leadership does NOT understand either. The survival of the TEA Party and the utter defeat of the Obama regime depends upon the TEA Party wising up . . . QUICKLY and adopting the PR model. Let Ol’ Rajjpuut make this perfectly clear in case you're not aware of what goes in Puerto Rico . . . .
The single-most burning issue in PR politics for the last sixty years has been American Statehood. Like Hamlet’s vacillation, it’s a major question of “To be or not to be . . . .” In 1952, the Puerto Rican people made a huge deal of demanding (and getting) PR recognized legally with commonwealth status (in Spanish “un estado libre associado” or 'a free but associated state'). Puerto Rico is by law thus a free territory associated with the United States. This single issue has so dominated political thinking for the last six decades that three separate political parties arguing this issue more than any other, have risen up to dominate PR politics. These three sides have been arguing this issue and controlling the country until recently when another seemingly-intelligent fourth side has emerged. We’ll ignore the arising fourth party, its influence is not yet clear, except to say they have chosen perhaps the wisest ground of all, they refuse to get involved in statehood at all which could prove to be a very popular stand and devote themselves to more mundane matters in island life . . . oh, by the way, to be fully accurate there are nineteen political parties in PR but up till now on the most important question of all and on other very important questions only three of these parties have mattered. Understanding that the situation is very fluid in PR and that influence from one party flows easily to other parties within their nineteen parties, here’s what’s going on:
A. The right-wing organization los “Estadistas” believes that the future of Puerto Rico should be aligned with the United State, better yet within the United States. They say that everything good now going on will be amplified a hundredfold and all miseries would be reduced tenfold if PR becomes the 51st state. Their strength from year to year varies from 30-37% with 33-34% of the people agreeing with them on statehood at a given vote. They're somewhat like our Republican Party.
B. There is a left-wing organzation los “Independentistas” that wants Puerto Rico to become a free nation. The most progressive among them actually hate the United States and paint the United States as an empire that dominates and exploits them. Think of them as our revolutionary-progressive Democrats here seeking to fundamentally transform their island. Depending upon economic conditions, their popularity oscillates between 32-38% with 35% of voters typically voting with them on the statehood issue.
C. The third major party when it comes to the big question of statehood is actually not so much a third party but a third way of thinking. They are officially the Commonwealth Party. Every time the issue of statehood comes up for a ballot (Puerto Ricans love voting on this issue far more than any other) their utterly INexpensive and utterly effective campaigning features a lot of volunteers parading around with a few signs emphasizing the beauty of “el estatus quo” or keeping things just the way they are. The Commonwealth Party membership varies from 27-34% with 30% being typical support on the issue of Statehood. While they are not always effective on other issues, the Commonwealth Party always wins the statehood vote because they stake out and dominate the middle ground and the other two positions are mutually exclusive. The common wealth party also does tend to enjoy a far greater domination in issues other than statehood despite their low numbers as they almost universally stake out the middle ground and later when a coalition government is formed, the commonwealth party is one of the few almost always invited to the table by the other parties. In so far as any nation with 19 parties can be dominated by one political party the Commonwealth Party dominates Puerto Rican politics . . . most importantly they exercise this domination by only winning on one issue: statehood.
Rajjpuut would suggest to TEA Party leadership that WINNING (and thus saving our nation) is far more important than just looking good. What does that mean?
For one possible example of the probable wrong course, Rand Paul, a nominal libertarian^^ just won a state primary over a heavily backed Republican candidate. Rand might win in November, but then again he might not. He’s not a Republican and will not have the fund-raising of the Republicans behind him -- NOR SHOULD HE, they've got their own troubles and their own candidates. Those in the know say it’s 50-50 Paul wins in November; Rajjpuut says its fairly unlikely he’ll win . . . votes follow money, unfortunately. While Rajjpuut would clearly prefer Rand Paul over 94% of Democrats and over 100% of progressive Republicans and/or progressive Democrats . . . politics is a profession built upon hard work and practicality which means "MONEY." And that is the dilemma of all third parties in America and all grass-roots movements everywhere: Piling up money and doing the hard work while never being tempted to make shortcuts to get that all-too-crucial monetary backing is essential but -- just as cleanliness is next to Godliness in politics, it's also next to impossible.
Why is the TEA Party even considering nominating candidates? Our early successes have gone to our heads. And the early successes have impressed Republicans and shocked and angered a few Democrats. The TEA Party integrity has also been a refreshing new addition to the American political scene – in fact, Rajjpuut would say the TEA Party integrity and winning . . . highlight the most favorable path ahead: like the Commonwealth Party in Puerto Rico let's be real conservatives on fiscal matters and the Constitution and possibly a few more associated matters (such as the TEA Party “Contract FROM America” perhaps the single-greatest political document since the Magana Carta and TEA Party leadership is letting it languish on the sidelines instead of relentlessly educating Americans (“This, this ‘Contract FROM America’ is what we are all about.”) Let’s say the TEA Party’s effectiveness in winning is right about 67-68%. That’s amazing for not having any money. But this figure needs to be tempted by reality and practicality: Scott Brown, of Massachusetts, for example, has done some minor good but sided with Obama on three critical issues so where does that leave us when Brown comes up for a vote? Rajjpuut suggests, it leaves us right where we should be . . . holding Brown's feet to the fire while comparing him to other candidates.
Imagine this lovely scenario: by staying a low-budget, deeply patriotic non-violent group who’s integrity comes to be admired by even the mainstream media (that's not appearing likely yet, eh?) that concentrates on conservative fiscal and constitutional matters (such as repealing Obamacare as a violation of the Constitution, especially the 10th Amendment; and amending the Constitution so that all bills must delineate why and where they are justified within the Constitution) say we set as a goal: expanding our power and influence so that the TEA Party supported candidates and issues win 75% . . . the TEA Party becomes the nation’s kingmakers here in America just as the Commonwealth Party dominates in Puerto Rico. That’s an easily achievable and far more noble goal than becoming** another political party.
Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,
Rajjpuut
^^ Rajjpuut is a Libertarian and Rand Paul truly does NOT FULLY understand the political thinking of libertarianism as seen by his comments on the civil rights law -- where he argued about angels on the heads of pins rather than just being "Libertarian practical" and saying (to himself) "it's the law of the land and I agree with 99% of it, so I'll keep my mouth shut." For all practical purposes the Civil Rights Law of '64 is as perfect as its ever going to be, shut up and move on to Fiscal Conservativism and Constitutional Conservativism as the only subjects you talk to reporters about. See Rajjpuut's critique of this issue here:
similarly when abortion is brought up: "It's the law of the land" move on to talka about Fiscal Conservativism and Constitutional Conservativism, AMEN!
**This could change for the TEA Party in say, six or eight years as they gain America's esteem . . . and it might become desirable to become a vote-seeking party. But ask yourself this, if winning and advancing the two major conservative issues is all that matters (Rajjpuut says it is NOW and for the foreseeable future) than how much more effective can a political party be than 75%??? Not to mention that political parties and politicians tend to get corrupted. It’s more difficult at first, but after awhile they all lose their integrity. Isn’t it better to be the one holding feet to the fire, than being the one whose “vision slips”???? Better to strategically control the fray while staying apart from it and maintaining one's objectivity and integrity, NO?

Ok, I have reached the point where Government and some minorities have taken complete control of this nations democratic process. How is it excepted that any black man or hispanic man can demand that equality be given to them while at the same exact moment seek to demonize whites by suggested everything we seem to do, has some racist motive or agenda to enslave non-whites. Like in one New England state where a black principle decided to only allow black students to go on a field trip while telling the white students they could not take part in that public runned facilities activity, but it's ok, it was "well intentioned". How is this not racism? How is this perfectly ok with government and local leadership? Where is Al Sharpton demanding equality or President Obama and his misguided rhetoric? Hmm? Good question. Or how about the incident where five white students who wore the American Flag on their shirts to school where some Mexican American students also wore their Mexican flag. Somehow only the white Americans were told to remove the flags from their person or face suspension. And one Mexican student actually came out her mouth and demanded the white students apologize for wearing their nation's flag in their nation. How is it equal to punish the white students and not say a word to any of the Mexican students? Al Sharpton? President Obama? Hmm... Still not here. I also find it funny that when those in the Tea Party voted for Obama they were not racist but somehow because they do not agree with his policies they become "Racist redkneck tea baggers"? Those on the left for some reason believe they can change the rules when it suits them but God forbid anyone else expressing their freedoms. Does anyone remember what happened when Bush was in office? Did the left not come out and do the same exact thing we are doing now? Were they called racist? were they called tea baggers? goodness..still no sharpton or obama. You see, this nation has become so double standard that we allow inequality and racism, existence. This legalized racism needs to be stopped before some real damage takes place. lets shine some light on real racism like Obama and Al Sharpton who intentionally create racist issues in order to advance a cause to seperate and unravel our free democracy. Yes, some whites are racist and I said some but let's not pretend that blacks or hispanics can't also be racist. And lets treat all racism the same with equal justice and not social justice. And I will be honest, I did vote for Obama. I saw hope in his promises, unforntunately I soon realized that this man carried no interest in protecting all americans and no intentions to keep America free and equal. He is a criminal who has violated his oath to protect the American People and the Constitution. He speaks in a socialist tone to divided the American people, increase our national debt, create socialist legislation, undermine state governments, pushing equal balance towards a racial preference, monetary theft from the rich and middle class to give to the poor, removing the seperation of powers to consolidate his one power, pushing government ever closer to a police state in which civil liberties no longer exist. I truly do not understand how this criminal racist man is allowed to remain in power? Why isn't he impeached? I do not know. The American people need to realize what is at stake. Lets end this double standard in our society, lets treat every American with respect and equality. Blacks,whites,hispanics need to stop hating each other and work together. Lets make American mean something again. If we are unable to live equal then this nation will collapse. Do the right thing, the just thing and remove Obama from power. So thats why I wrote this, to express my concerns about a government and ideals that portray equality but subvert it to a double standard. I wish everyone love and happiness and God Bless!!

Obama’s Great Blessing -- Christians Misunderstand

the Doctrine of “Turn the Other Cheek!”

One of the very few places where Rajjpuut agrees with Barack Obama occurred in 2007 when Illinois Senator Obama said, “The United States is NOT a Christian nation.” Some Christians get angry to hear that from Rajjpuut as well as from Obama. Nevertheless, Jefferson, Franklin, Washington, both Massachusetts Adamses and virtually the entirety of the founding fathers believed precisely that way, that it was important NOT to be a Christian nation but rather to be a nation where religious tolerance as well as true separation of church and state existed.

Of course, Obama, interprets the statement “ America is NOT (or, no longer) a Christian Nation” in a very negative and controversial manner and Rajjpuut interprets the statement in a very uplifting manner. Obama interprets that statement to mean that he can abuse Christians in this country virtually with impunity as he and his administration feel the need to side with other groups for political gain. More specifics on this will follow in a few paragraphs. Rajjpuut means it this way: the evils done to some adherents of some religions by others (for examples by Catholics and Protestants to each other in Ireland and Northern Ireland, to Non-Anglican Christians such as the Quakers by the Brits, Jews suffering in Russia and Germany, and Muslims in Bosnia, etc.) ; all the evils that have been done in the name of corruptions of Christianity historically to other religious and non-religious people; the evils that state-mandated religions all over the world have done; and all possible evils associated with BIG RELIGION . . . all of this is controlled by the law, by the Constitution, in America. No one in America can be forced to follow a given religion or dissuaded from following their own spiritual leanings in America.

As for Obama’s intolerance toward Christianity, lets examine just three incidents:

#1 After hosting 50,000 Muslims for three hours on Capitol Hill September 25, 2009, at the the National Day of Prayer for Muslims, today, May 7, 2010,Mr. Obama cancelled the 2010 National Day of Prayer Ceremony at the White House saying “ . . . we don’t want to offend anybody.” Apparently Christians, Jews and other non-Muslims are not considered to be “anybody.”

#2 While liberally sprinkling about nasty terms ( racists, haters, stupid, Nazis, extremists, astro-turf, storm-troopers, hood-wearing; etc.) in reference to the TEA Party movement, Obama and his people have made an impossible-to-miss effort at a ridiculously extreme form of political correctness (for example in 70 pages discussing the Ft. Hood shooting, where not once were the words “Jihad,” “Terrorism,” “Islam” or “Muslim” to be found . . . that is, the core motivation for Major Hassan’s attack was literally impossible for them to put into “politically-correct” words while they have no trouble finding insults for the “extreme right,” insults they cannot back up with evidence ever. But who exactly is the “extreme right?” According to Mr. Obama? “…Christian right, has done a good job of building these organizations of accountability, much better than the left or progressive forces have. But it's always easier to organize around intolerance, narrow-mindedness, and false nostalgia. And they also have hijacked the higher moral ground with their language of family values and moral responsibility.” In other words Christianity, at least as practiced by conservative individuals is his philosophical enemy.

#3 Back in 2006 while a senator and again when he was already campaigning for president, in 2007, Obama interrupted his activities to visit the homeland of his father, Barak (no ‘c’) Hussein Obama, Sr. in Kenya. He went nominally on fact-finding missions on taxpayers’ money but ‘paused’ while there to help the presidential campaign of Raila Odinga (purportedly the then-senator Obama’s cousin for which no verification could be found other than Odinga’s claim). Odinga was university educated in East Berlin some years before the fall of the Berlin Wall and is a non-apologetic communist, just like Barack’s father Barak (no ‘c’) was. Whether or not the two are cousins, both of their fathers were also unapologetic communists. In the top link immediately below, Barack’s birth dad in a well-known African periodical talks about the benefits of “100% taxes on the rich” and also describes his favorite political system as “scientific socialism” which he quickly clears up by saying “communism.”

http://www.politico.com/static/PPM41_eastafrica.html

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0408/9610.html

Socialism and communism are, of course, closely related . . . far more importantly for this blog, in many communist regimes freedom of religion is very problematical if not impossible. Raila Odinga’s character and Obama’s actions are the question here, however . . . .

Obama made at least fifteen campaign stops for Odinga. Purportedly, he donated $950,000 to Odinga’s** campaign, Rajjpuut is still looking for a second confirmation on that one (if true, the next question is where did that money come from?). Mostly Obama wore a dress shirt and tie when campaigning. However, at least twice he dressed in traditional Muslim garb while addressing Muslim groups. Mr. Obama, despite his claim to be a lifelong Christian and to have “never practiced Islam” spent parts of five years of his youth attending a Muslim school^^ in Jakarta, capital of Indonesia and was reportedly a “prize student.” This is at best, a small issue. However, the character of Mr. Odinga is no small issue. Here’s what Rajjpuut means:

As a communist candidate, Mr. Odinga ran under the banner of “change,” but did not ever breach 50% popularity during the campaign. However, it appears he definitely LOST the election because of a secret deal he made with the Muslim community in Kenya that was reportedly leaked by a disenchanted aide.

Christians are the biggest worship group in Kenya, constituting 45% of the nation’s populace. Muslims are just about 11%. Odinga signed a letter of agreement with the Muslims to make Islam the nation’s official religion and institute “sharia” law. Beside instituting the traditional Muslim treatment of women that the two sides agreed upon, the law would have banned other religions’ access to TV or radio broadcasting. All person-to-person missionary work by other religions would have been banned . . . in short, Mr. Odinga would have curtailed religious freedom and freedom of speech while imposing hateful restrictions on women and girls and thus proved himself the lowest of scum and well- prepared to betray his country.

Within days, the content of the letter of agreement was known all over the country and Odinga was lambasted in the press and public opinion. Pretending the copy of the agreement “captured” was bogus propaganda from the incumbent, Odinga produced a much more “reasonable” agreement and said it was the only one ever negotiated between himself and the Muslims. Mr. Obama never commented when asked about Odinga’s shenanigans. Later as defeat loomed unmistakable, an e-mail from Senator Obama before the election purported telling how Mr. Odinga should handle the matter (violently) was published . . . Rajjpuut could NOT find a second source to confirm Jerome Corsi’s “The Obama Nation’s” claim that the copy of an Obama e-mail advising claiming election fraud and stimulating violence was a probably successful course of action for Odinga. In any case, however, when Odinga lost, Muslim violence coincided with his claim of “widespread election fraud.” An outbreak of violence (against Christians mostly but any non-Muslim) at this Odinga announcement against numerous Christians and Christian churches suffering attacks, maiming and death and wanton arson. Rape was one of the favorite expressions of violent disapproval by the Muslim perpetrators. Obama again claimed no connection. Odinga never apologized or showed regret. To quell the violence, Odinga was offered the newly created post of prime minister by the victor and accepted.

OK, Obama is not crazy about Christians, so what? The problem increasingly is that of Christian passivity in the face of clear and aggravated injustice. Rajjpuut’s reading of the Bible is that “turn the other cheek” is actually an act of courage and aggressive Christian expressionism and not merely crawling back toward some corner to hide. The best examples, one from a Christian and one from a Hindu, are the actions of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Mohandas K. Gandhi which demonstrate non-violent but utterly courageous resistance to unjust behavior by one’s “enemy.” This is one reason that Rajjpuut is so enamored of the TEA (taxed enough already) Party – the fact that active resistance to injustice is adopted at every turn of events.

The evidence (often revealed by Rajjpuut on this blogsite) shows Barack Obama’s mother, grandfather and birth father were all communists (and opposed to Christianity and most religious expression); it also shows that his two longest serving mentors, Reverend Jeremiah Wright and poet Frank Marshall Davis are both communists; and it shows that he attended Muslim school for parts of five years and was highly regarded as a student. So, knowing that Barack Obama is an unjust enemy . . . active resistance by Christians and conservatives is called for every step of the way and non-violent dignified protest is the key.

Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

What's a Poor TEA Party to do?


The mainstream media when discussing the TEA Party mostly performs a continuous non-stop conversation using the Obama propaganda-nonsense re-using their progressive-labels, terms like “racists, hate-mongers, astro-turf, stupid, extremists, and violent.” You can hardly hear the term “TEA Party” on the air without one of those nasty six propaganda adjectives attached somewhere in the "news" coverage. Only very rarely does the lamestream media try to talk sense or semi-sense about the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party phenomenon. When they do, they mostly seek comparison with Ross Perot’s bumbling political attempts in 1992 and 1996 or call it “a third-party movement,” or even compare them to Ralph Nader. They could be right, but hopefully NOT. Rajjpuut believes Perot failed miserably and accomplished just exactly the opposite of what he hoped to do. By splitting conservative voters, he ensured dramatically easy victories for the progressives and nothing more . . . a very sad legacy.

The TEA Party has a huge opportunity awaiting and at this stage (things might be dramatically different in 2012, 2014 and 2016) the worst thing that group can try to do right now is to raise a bunch of money, field a slate of candidates and seek to elect them as a political party. That would playing the Ross Perot card and playing it very, very weakly. The fact is, Americans are fed up completely with politics and politicians and political parties. Fiscal-conservatives and Constitutional-conservatives (the largest voter-bloc in the country) are especially fed up with politics, more fed up with politics than any other group in America. Politics-as-usual like Ross Perot tried, is precisely the easiest way to waste this moment in history. This moment in history, if handled rightly can be considered: the TEA Party moment! Never has America needed a more intelligent grass-roots movement than it does right now. So what can be done? What should be done?

To succeed at anything it helps to know who you are, exactly who you are and who you are NOT. The TEA Party movement, at its heart, gives conservative people an outlet, more importantly, it gives them hope that their voices can be heard. Right now that is a very huge role to play; and it is right now the best that they or you and I can expect; and most importantly IF they truly play that role properly, the TEA Party can make a huge difference in America and can accomplish many of the things that conservative people in their hearts most pray for.

To succeed at anything, it also is very important to know just exactly what you’re up against and who are your friends and who are your enemies. That the present progressive-dominated Democratic Party is the enemy of the TEA Party seems fairly obvious. Many folks believe that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Many folks believe the Republican Party is the TEA Party’s friend. Let’s think a little on that. The Republican Party as it was created in 1854 in Ripon, Wisconsin would be precisely the TEA Party’s very best friend. Today the Republican Party of 1854, 1856, 1858 and 1860 would be called “Libertarians,” which means fiscal-conservatives, constitutional conservatives and live-and-let-live liberals so long as you don’t “tread on me.” That was a party that stood for something. That was the Republican Party that freed the slaves. That was the Republican Party that eventually replaced the once proud Whig Party which by 1852 had become an effete party trying to please everyone at once that commanded about 26% of the national vote. Those Whigs were, however, someone we need to understand right now.

The American Whig Party itself arose when the original Republican Party lost its vigor and vision and somebody was needed to oppose the takeover by the executive branch and denigration of the Congress by Andrew Jackson (they called him “King Andrew," the Whigs did) and the Democratic Party. According to Wikipedia: "Whig" was then a widely recognized label of choice for people who saw themselves as opposing autocratic rule. The Whig Party counted among its members such national political luminaries as Daniel Webster, William Henry Harrison, and their pre-eminent leader, Henry Clay of Kentucky. In addition to Harrison, the Whig Party also counted several prominent war heroes and national figures among its ranks, including Generals Zachary Taylor and Winfield Scott and former Lt. Colonel, western explorer and demi-whig California Senator John C. Fremont (the Republicans’ first presidential candidate). Abraham Lincoln was a Whig leader in then frontier Illinois. Except for a few spotty victories here and there, the Republicans who eventually replaced the Whigs were not at all successful until six years later and helped ensure virtually complete control of the country by the Democrats in 1854, 1856 and 1858 which proved to be some of the most volatile and violent years ever and led directly to the Civil War.

So the question remains, is the Republican Party the friend of the TEA Party? And the answer is . . . mostly NOT. Or most properly, NO, NOT yet! If the Republican Party had stuck to its core-philosophies of fiscal-conservativism and constitutional-conservativism over the last twenty years (twelve years under Republican presidents Bush I and Bush II) the nation would NOT now be in the shape it’s in. In fact, by possibly hijacking TEA Party votes en masse without later adhering to TEA Party desires for real meaningful conservativism in 2010 and future years . . . the Republican Party could prove to be as huge an enemy as the progressive Democrats. Right now, as I write this, there are probably eighty to a hundred rather cynical Republican politicos out there, looking at the TEA Party as a “nifty little parade” and planning exactly how they can jump in at the front and lead it.

All that being true, Rajjpuut believes it’s fair to say that the Republican Party has lost legitimacy among fiscal- and constitutional-conservatives. Once burned, twice cautious. The TEA Party would do best to stay independent of the Republican Party and yet NOT stand in direct opposition to it, the Republicans are, after all, the only ones opposing the Obamanations now going in Congress. That Republican opposition has been crucial and the Republicans share many conservative values at least nominally . . . .

It would be a hopelessly stupid mistake to run candidates against Republicans in 2010, because it would ensure progressive Democratic victory and more Obamanations. The TEA Party needs to show it’s hand clearly as opposed to the progressive elements of the Democratic Party which dominated the senate debate and most of the house debate. And the TEA Party needs to show itself as opposed to at least 90% of the Obama administration’s “transformations.” So far great things have been achieved by simply holding candidates’ feet to the conservative fire. Is that a perpetually winning formula? What’s to be done? What is the wisest course for the TEA Party? What’s best for America?

The secret for the TEA Party lies in knowing who they are. The TEA Party is a leveraged group of disenchanted conservatives (about 52% call themselves Republicans; 29% say they’re Independents and 19% call themselves Democrats) who are discovering their political voices. The two key words are the term “leveraged” and the term “disenchanted.” Let’s talk plain English here: leveraged means “potentially powerful.” Disenchanted means “fed up completely.” The TEA Party then is a potentially powerful group completely fed up with the political scene in Washington, D.C. and most of their state capitols.

Rajjpuut repeats . . . the TEA Party then is a potentially powerful group completely fed up with the political scene in Washington, D.C. and most of their state capitols. That is the truth and the truth can set you free. So what is the political reality right now?

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/mood_of_america/partisan_trends

Democrats according to a recent Rasmussen survey constitute 36.0% of the voting populace and Republicans 31.6%. That leaves 33.4% of potential voters unaffiliated with either party. There are more unaffiliated voters than Republicans and almost as many as the number of Democrats. Many of those unaffiliated voters are sympathetic to what the TEA Party movement stands for; many of them call themselves Independents . . . and as we’ve seen the make-up of the TEA Party is roughly 50% conservative Republicans, 30% conservative Independents and 20% conservative Democrats and virtually all of them are completely fed up and before the TEA Party came along, they were feeling pretty damn powerLESS. But it’s easy to see that if the TEA Party holds the politicians of both parties’ feet to the fire . . . they and “unaffiliated” groups actually control the political process because neither major party holds anywhere near a majority of the voting public's allegiance. It’s just a matter of proper leadership and wisely plotting the course of the groups’ activism and quite frankly, it doesn’t appear to Rajjpuut to be a necessarily expensive process. More on this later . . . .

For the most part, the TEA Party sympathizers belong to a group of people that Rasmussen calls “mainstream America.” The group of people that are largely responsible for frustrating mainstream America Rasmussen identifies as “the Political Class” How does Rasmussen delineate the two groups? Glad you asked . . . .

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/general_politics/january_2010/65_now_hold_populist_or_mainstream_views

Rasmussen said in his January 31st survey that 65% of potential voters hold Mainstream views while only 4% hold Political Class views. When “leaners” are factored in 76% of Americans hold Mainstream views and only 12% hold Political Class views. Specifically, polling showed 76% of voters generally trust the American people more than political leaders on important national issues. Seventy-one percent (71%) view the federal government as a special interest group looking out mainly for itself, and 70% believe that the government and big business typically work together in ways that hurt consumers and investors. On each question, a majority of Republicans, and Democrats and unaffiliated voters shared those views. Rasmussen’s results would agree with Rajjpuut’s thinking that the Political Class believes that the politicians know what’s best for America and they are the experts and should be left alone to run the country.

Politicians and folks with government jobs, especially those cushy government jobs tend to belong the Political Class. In Rajjpuut’s memory the highest that Mainstream has ever surveyed is right now and the lowest that the Political Class has evered surveyed is right now. The lowest Mainstream numbers he ever remembers were around 49% and the highest political class numbers were roughly 26% or 27%. The lesson to be learned from this? There’s a lot of disenchantment out there and that disenchantment, if properly channeled is a potentially powerful force . . . a force for positive change.Let’s look specifically at why Mainstream voters are so fed up. Recent top gripes include these taken from the mouth of a mythical typical voter:

1. Politicians throwing money around in hopes of curing problems they created by spending money unwisely in the first place. Since unfunded obligations now have reached $108 TRillion, I’m highly upset.

2. Big company CEOs flying private jets and collecting big salaries while receiving billions of dollars of our bailout money.

3. Government telling us we must give up our freedoms and privacy if we ever want to be secure.

4. Politicians trying to control every aspect of our lives for their own benefit has got me boiling mad.

5. Politicians spending our children’s and grandchildren’s money to fund “set aside” programs that they refused to set aside funds for.

6. The mainstream media aligning itself with the political class virtually 100% of the time.

7. Angry citizens with legitimate gripes being labelled racists, extremists and dangerous violent by the Obama administration and the mainstream media.

8. Everything about the Federal Reserve Banking system and how it helped bring us to this fiscal sinkhole we’re in is totally aggravating to me. Now I understand my dollar is likely to be worth seven cents in about five years.

9. Government refusing to protect our borders.

10. Stimulus money spent without our approval.

11. Stimulus money not creating jobs but just being looted.

12. GM using a bailout slush fund of our money to “pay off its debt five years in advance when it only had one profitable quarter.

13. Chrysler now needing another bailout, their third, since I know good friends who’ve lost homes, cars and hope, I find this infuriating.

14. Some being called “too big to fail” being rewarded for their failure while the ordinary citizen who through no fault of his own has to fear losing his job is just taxed more to cover the bailouts.

15. Politicians, especially the Obama administration abusing the Constitution or using it like toilet paper.

16. Greater taxes and greater spending instead of really stimulating the economy by reducing government spending and slashing of taxes.

17. Government abusing the word “reform” when they only mean “greater government control.” REFORM means “making things better” and that’s not happening with the clowns now in office making our decisions. It’s enough to make you want to vote every one of the bums out of office.

18. Major legislation being passed by the slimmest possible vote margins instead of with 90% approval and both parties involved in crafting wise laws.

19. Having the largest (Baaken Fields) oil reserve in the world within our borders and paying an arm and a leg at the gas pump.

20. Knowing that in Europe (where their media even the ultra-liberal London Times keeps them informed) public opinion has now roundly rejected the notion of “global warming” in the face of the Climate-Gate revelations of scientific mal-practice and corruption of statiscal evidence and yet being faced with cap and trade legislation that will cost a minimum of $220 billion per year. Our media hasn't even run stories on Climate-Gate.

21. Seeing irrigation stopped in California and vegetable prices rise so that the EPA can protect a three-inch long fish. Let the EPA figure a cheap way to keep the fish safe and let farmers irrigate. 40% unemployment in parts of Fresno County is ridiculous! Have politicians NO common sense? I find it mind-boggling.

22. Seeing our tax money go to increase the size and complexity and interference-capability of the federal government when it should be going to increasing the number of jobs the private sector can create.

23. Hearing that a VAT (valued added tax) is about 85% likely after November’s elections on top of increased taxes for 2011 created by letting the Bush tax breaks expire and on top of horrendous income taxes.

24. Seeing that our president is 100% convinced he and only he knows best for us, and whatever thoughts we have about what an American government ought to look like and how it ought to be functioning are totally ignored.

25. Seeing that every day America, and everything good and strong and great about it, is being threatened by “transformation” that is becoming more and more of a nightmare. A big part of that nightmare is that our teachers are seemingly teaching that America is evil and needs to be drastically changed. Since those drastic changes include teaching first graders about homosexuality, trans-gender operations, and cross-dressing . . . I’m highly upset.

26. Seeing that the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX with Gore and Obama and Goldman Sachs as prominent players) stands to make, by their own admission, "Ten TRillion dollars selling and producing nothing, but just for handling cap and trade dealings in this country when I know that global-warming is NOT true and cap and trade is not needed just infuriates me. That's a severe conflict of interest for both men and yet the mainstream media won't publicize it.


The list above includes many of the problems that conservative, good and patriotic people are trying to cure when they become politically active by joining or sympathizing with the TEA Party. What can they do but gripe? Does anyone listen?

Politicians really DO tend to listen, especially when it’s nearing election day. Let’s look at the legacy of the TEA Party influence so far. Four elections*** with three resounding victories and one almost-miracle so far. In other words, the TEA Party activism is bringing about change and it’s not even involving huge expense. So why would, should the TEA Party people change a winning formula? They shouldn't. They're doing more to help the country with minimal expense and without becoming a vote-seeking political party then either of the two major parties combined-- don't change a winner!

The TEA Party also has a tremendous new tool at its disposal and to Rajjpuut’s knowledge it has NOT used it so far, more's the pity:

http://www.contractfromamerica.com/Idea.aspx

The TEA Party created this wonderful instrument the “Contract from America” and it’s not using it at all: huge mistake!

The ten items (voted on by sympathizers from the original twenty-one TEA Party concerns) in the Contract from America are perhaps the wisest set of values identified by any political group since the Magna Carta. In brief form, here they are:

And the top ten are…

1.Protect the Constitution


2. Reject Cap & Trade


3. Demand a Balanced Budget


4. Enact Fundamental Tax Reform


5. Restore Fiscal Responsibility & Constitutionally Limited Government in Washington


6. End Runaway Government Spending


7. Defund, Repeal, & Replace Government-run Health Care


8. Pass an ‘All-of-the-Above” Energy Policy


9. Stop the Pork


10. Stop the Tax Hikes

The TEA Party created this wonderful instrument and it’s really done nothing with it. The whole nation needs to educated as to what the TEA Party stands for, and not this brief listing above but rather a full and complete picture. For example, 71% of supporters regarded the #1 item on the list “Protect the Constitution” as important enough to be in their top ten from among the twenty-one items voted upon . . . but “Protect the Constitution is too vague. Their original document which Rajjpuut was NOT able to find, (How smart is that, TEA Party?) required every bill proposed in congress to reference the Constitution of the United States and to cite the provisions of the Constitution that allowed the bill to be considered.

So what’s a poor TEA Party to do?

A. Continue with the winning formula of educating and attracting more members compatible with the three main concerns: constitutionally-based government that’s fiscally-conservative, open^^^, transparent and accountable; and that represents the minimum government necessary to work for the people.

B. Practice high standards and non-violence at all times no matter what.

C. Continue holding the feet of all politicians of every political party and the independents too, very close to the fire. Evaluate all of 'em against the ten planks of the "Contract from America."That is the winning formula. Look for those who espouse and practice conservative minimalist government; and, if they don’t keep their word, kick them out next time and elect someone who respects the Contract from America who will keep their word.

D. EDUCATE! EDUCATE! EDUCATE! EDUCATE! EDUCATE! Imagine how much better America would be today if over the last twenty years Americans were educated and truly aware of what was going on in Washington. Imagine how much better Americans will be in 2020, IF 67% of Americans this year learn the ten TEA Party tenets in the Contract from America and 55% of Americans decide that those ten tenets are important.

E. Love America, read about America and study what America is really about and pass that on to your children and grandchildren.

F. By the way, by at least 2016, we should consider making congress a part-time entity, say 160 days every other year. We don’t need politicians and lawmakers, we need to elect statesmen and stateswomen who tinker with the people and the capitalist system the least and spend no more than necessary. Human nature being what it is, lawmakers tend to make laws whether they're needed or desirable or wanted or not, limit the possible mischief by limiting the time available for making laws.

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

*** That is, two big wins in New Jersey and Virginia; and a really huge win in Massachusetts and helping an unfunded conservative oust the ultra-progressive Republican funded with $1 million of Republican money from an upstate New York race and almost defeat the semi-conservative Democratic candidate in the election.

^^^ Open means that perhaps 85% of what the congress does is NOT done behind close doors and both parties and the media are invited.

^^^ Transparent means that bills are clear, simple, short and easily understood and placed online for all voters to read-over 96-120 hours before the first procedural voting begins. Amendments (earmarks) not having anything to do with the fundamental purpose of the bill need to reference the constitution or better yet, be cut altogether from all the bill.

^^^ Accountable means that congressmen and the president honor our established processes; and the constitution; and the will of the voters and are willing to discuss these and the entirety of the bills they're voting on with the media and the people and to ensure that they do NOT personally profit in any way from the bill they're supporting.

Ron Paul doesn't waiver from his principles when dealing with establishment shill Chris Matthews on MSNBC Hardball: http://www.campaignforliberty.com/blog.php?view=34882

If it is true that there is a struggle for the soul of the Tea Party, it's a struggle that has continued for more than a generation on the Right.

The Right in America has long had a Conservative Wing and an Individualist (Libertarian) Wing. Heroes of American Freedom, like Lysandor Spooner, H L Mencken, Robert Taft and Barry Goldwater exhibited the tension between these approaches to supporting American Liberty. Today Dr. Ron Paul (and soon his son Dr. Rand Paul, a former leader of the Kentucky Taxpayers) represent that tradition. Clearly the likes of the Bushes and their allies in the GOP don't.

In that sense, there is no struggle for the soul of the Freedom Movement when we understand that Movement has existed at least since the end of the War between the States and the enormous increase in Federal power. The Taxpayers Movement long represented the heart of Freedom in America. Many of us Baby-Boomers on the Right "cut our teeth" in the Goldwater Campaign and in the Taxpayer Movement.

Always, during the recent "lean" years of Leftist domination of the Federal govt, we've been able to look to Dr. Paul for leadership. He had a major role in returning to Americans their right to own Monetary Gold in the 1970s, thereby setting the stage for the faltering move toward Free Markets that, until the Federal Reserve's recent insanity, produced decades of sustained prosperity. He was always there, often as the only "NO!" vote in Congress, earning him the moniker, Dr. No. Resisting tyranny every step of the way.

Today the Health Freedom Movement, the Movement to End the Fed and similar are at the cutting edge of the Freedom Movement. Dr. Paul has been with us there from the start, on all of those issues.

If you are seeking the soul of the Tea Party you do not have to look beyond Ron Paul.

He is the gentlest gentleman in DC. But the steel in his heart shows through in the above appearance.

Take special note when the Liberal host parrots the usual stupidity about people who "need" to be tax-eaters and how, as Dr. Paul begins his usual explanation to Liberals about how their Warfare State makes their Welfare State impossible, and how the answer is to stop the wars and end the Empire... he's cut off. One thing good Liberals cannot ever, ever question is the Empire! The wars must continue, no matter whether the Left Neocons are in power or the "Right" Neocons are in power (I firmly believe all interventionists are leftists at heart, even Dick Chaney, and have nothing in common with the Movement to Restore the Republic).

Of course Dr. Paul is right, if we prevail, there will be some transition from what we have now back to the Constitutional Republic. His plan to use the tax savings from ending the Empire to reduce taxes while continuing to take care of the elderly and others who now depend on Welfare (or Social Security, which is more or less welfare...) is probably the best we can do... But as the Freedom Movement used to say about chattel slavery, "Gradualism in theory is perpetuity in practice." The evils of Federal interventionism, at home and abroad, must be ended, sooner rather than later. And no one involved the Federal govt is more likely to do that than Dr. Paul.

Or, of course, we will suffer exactly what Dr Paul predicts in this appearance... run away inflation which will evaporate the value of all pensions and savings, including Social Security. The Tea Party does not need "leaders" but it is sure comforting to know that we have Patriot Heroes like Dr Paul on our side!

As Thursday's Tax Day demonstrations drew over two million enthusiastic protestors out for the occasion, totally ignored by the mainstream media was the unveiling of the TEA (taxed enough already) Party’s “Contract FROM America.” The Contract from America consists of the “Top-Ten” most popular planks from among the group’s twenty-one original planks. Of the top-ten planks in the Contract, the number-one issue is clearly protecting the Constitution . . . not just because a plank by that name received the most internet votes and a closely related plank was voted into fifth position, but also because each and every one of the other eight planks honors the concept of limited federal government, returning power to the people and the states vis a vis the federal government and controlling size, spending and interference of the federal government. Here are the Contract From America's Top Ten Planks:

Protect the Constitution of the United States

Reject Cap and Trade legislation

Demand a balanced budget

Enact fundamental tax reform

Restore fiscal responsibility and constitutionally limited

government in Washington, D.C.

End Runaway government spending

Defund, repeal and replace government-run health care

Pass an “all-of-the-above” energy policy

Stop porkbarrel spending and earmarks in legislation

Prevent further tax hikes

These are the ten yardsticks for measuring candidates this coming November which the TEA Party will employ. Rajjpuut finds nine of the ten items he supported on the list as well as his item #13 and is deeply impressed with the wisdom shown by those who voted on the twenty-one item list. For those of us who believe that informed and caring citizens are the nation’s only chance of stepping back from the precipice of doom, this is a most heart-warming result. For the imbecilic mass media who called these gentle and concerned people “racists, haters and violent extremists,” Rajjpuut reminds you of Glen Beck’s nightly close using this Gandhi quote. “Let truth be your anvil and non-violence your hammer. Whatever does NOT ring true when struck on the anvil of truth by the hammer of non-violence must be rejected . . .” so let it be when the media’s lies and hate and extreme left-leanings are brought upon us . . . they are all rejected in the process. Just as the TEA Party says to the legislators “You work for us, we don’t work for you,” Rajjpuut says to the liberal media, “you either cover the truth or you only pretend to cover the news.” This fine document (these top-ten planks making up their 2010 Contract from America) is truly exactly what this country needs now. Let the media cover this great grassroots revolt truly and honestly or let them all die from lack of solvency as people refuse to pay to read or hear their lies.

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

So what? and Now what?

Two questions I always try to ask myself when self educating are "so what?" and "what now?"

For many years my friends and family have gathered around the dinner table and vented about the government getting out of control. For all of Bill Clinton's 8 years, that seemed to be all we did. At times I thought we were all kind of nuts, maybe a strange cell group that given the wrong kinda meat loaf would suddenly "turn rogue". However there was a closeness, an intamacy that we all experienced, knowing we were not alone. I remember times when new people would show up to dinner and we'd all get excited to find out they shared a lot of the same dissatisfactions we did. So we would re-hash all the same 'ol arguments with a lot of emphasis and visseral not really knowing who we were arguing with, being as we were all on the same side. I guess we could say it was iron sharpening iron. We all became experts at expressing our opinions about what was wrong with our country.

Well, now, a few years down the road, looking at this tea party movement, it would appear there were many dinner tables where people met at to discuss the status of the government and how it has become totally out of control. For years we've been talking about the "so what", but now, it seems we're asking "what now".

Erick Erickson wrote a good blog today on Redstate.com http://www.redstate.com/erick/2010/04/14/tea-party-movement-20/ where he was back-peddling a little, trying to explain his flippant remarks in his blog yesterday. For the most part I really enjoyed what he said today, but the following is what I've been asking myself and I believe many of you have been asking as well:

"But I go to tea party events all over the country and hear people say "Get involved," only to have actual tea party activists go home, email me, and ask the "how" that the person on stage never bothered to get to.

We must move beyond the protests and get to the fight. We are effective now. We should not settle. "

He goes on to list some very smart ways the average American can "get involved":

  • Learn how to be a better online activist.
  • Start paying attention to your local government.
  • Learn how to run for office and be a campaign strategist, whether or not you want to run or want to be a strategist. You will find the skills extremely useful.
  • Write letters to the editor of your paper.
  • Call in to local radio shows — not national, local.
  • Find candidates you like and support them, blog about them, promote them and fund them.
  • Stay connected to like minded souls in your community to know you are not alone — why I still like and support local tea party groups.
  • Become active in the political party of your choice. Change it from the inside, not the outside.
  • Learn to discern.
  • Above all else: remember that when the left attacks the tea party activists, they are attacking the foundation of America. Stop responding as an aggrieved tea party activist and start asking what part of the American way of life they have a problem with. "

I couldn't agree more, and would encourage all of you to follow through and not only do these things, but, pick one or two in particular and become an expert at them. Self governance takes people that are experts at all different kinds of skills. What good will it do if we are all just cookie cutter activists?

I would also like to add one to the list that we can all do. Like Glenn Beck says, we need to become an evangelist of this movement, we need to spread the word and invite others to come check it out. With that said, I hope to see you all the next tea party meet-up, you and someone you brought with you.

A wide range of polls over the last three weeks show that as Tax Day approaches Americans are becoming more and more convinced that congress and the president do not listen to them, tax too much, spend too much, have run up too much debt, and are on the wrong track for curing the ills of the nation, particulary jobs and the economy. Whether old respected polls or the polls of the networks or spot polls on the internet, the conclusions have been the same. More recent polling paints a “hardening” of those attitudes . . . today, Rasmussen Reports pollsters found "more of the same" in their surveys:

Item: only 21% of the voters believe that the decisionmakers in Washington have the consent of the governed while 61% believe Washington does NOT have that consent

Item: 66% of those polled say Americans are overtaxed including 81% of mainstream America feeling we are overtaxed . . . but in contrast 69% of the political class feels Americans are NOT over taxed

Item: 69% say the American Dream is becoming impossible for their children and grandchildren and 58% favor repeal of Obamacare and 47% say repeal of Obamacare will be good for the economy and only 33% say repeal of Obamacare will be bad for the economy
Item: 50% of unaffiliated voters say their views are closer to the TEA Party than to President Obama 38% of unaffiliated voters align with President Obama’s views and overall 48% of Americans feel closer to the TEA Party views than to Obama while 44% feel the President represents their views better.
Item: 96% of the political class** have an UNfavorable view of the TEA Party movement but 58% of the mainstream hold a favorable view of the TEA Party. To understand this polling statistic better . . . the Political Class typically varies from 6% to 18% of the populace depending upon the answers to three key questions on any given polling date. The mainstream percentage typically varies from 46% to 70% depending upon when a given poll takes place. The upshot is that the political class believes that the people in Washington are the experts and they know what’s best for America. The mainstream believes the voters have a much more realistic idea of what’s needed and what’s NOT needed at any given time.

Ya'all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut
** Understanding "Mainstream and Political Class" designations
Rasmussen's designations of "political class" and "mainstream" do more to clarify attitudes than perhaps any other system of classifying voter trends. The two groups not only shift in temperment from time to time, but also shift in the sizes of the respective groups over time, for example, a late January, 2010, Rasmussen poll showed that only an unbelievably low 4% aligned with the political class at that time. It is unusual for the political class to drop and stay much below 8% for any extended period of time. The three questions Rasmussen uses to calculate the Index are:

-- Generally speaking, when it comes to important national issues, whose judgment do you trust more - the American people or America’s political leaders?

-- Some people believe that the federal government has become a special interest group that looks out primarily for its own interests. Has the federal government become a special interest group?

-- Do government and big business often work together in ways that hurt consumers and investors?

To create the designations, each response earns a plus 1 for the mainstream answer "YES", a minus 1 for the political class answer "NO", and a 0 for not sure.

Those who score 2 or higher are considered part of the Mainstream. Those who score -2 or lower are considered to be aligned with the Political Class. Those who score +1 or -1 are considered leaners in one direction or the other.

In practical terms, if someone is classified with the Mainstream, they agree with the mainstream view on at least two of the three questions and don’t agree with the Political Class on any; and someone is classified as part of the political class if they agree with the political class view on at least two of the three questions and don't agree with the mainstream view on any.

Rajjpuut's Folly: Fun @ crashtheteaparty.org

Obama Dirty Tricks Groups Expand
Internet Efforts to Disrupt TEA Party Tax Day Protests

This coming Thursday is April 15, a.k.a. Tax Day, the day when the TEA Party will unveil its “Contract From America." For several months Americans have been voting on which of the top twenty-one TEA Party concerns they believe belong among the top ten American issues this year and thus will become the 2010 TEA Party Contract from America. TEA means “taxed enough already” for most people and “taken enough abuse,” but if some shady Progressives get their way . . . then count on the TEA Partiers to take a lot more abuse . . . .

One TEA Party organizer quoting Gandhi, put it like this: the attempt to destroy our movement is evidence the message is resonating. "We've been ignored, we've been ridiculed. Well, now they're coming after us," said Judy Pepenella, a co-coordinator for the New York State Tea Party. "Gandhi's quote is one we understand: 'First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win.'"

Obama and his Marxists admiration society have not only recently stepped up the hate attacks on the TEA Party via -- their always ready to broadcast (but never ready to check out the facts) Democratic hate messages -- the lamestream media . . . but have now expanded their internet efforts to recruit thugs and agitators to disrupt the group’s meetings; make them appear stupid in line with the lamestream media’s perceptions; do fake interviews; shout racist and inflammatory slogans in hopes of getting air time for negative perceptions of the group and otherwise using their dirty tricks to (they hope) do what truth won’t do: discredit the TEA Party movement. Here’s a typical website: one of about 200 that have sprung up in the last month:

which is owned/operated? by someone named Levins according to first impressions Rajjpuut garnered in looking things over. By the way, just type in "crash the tea party" or "crash the tea parties" and you'll get almost one million hits, ain't that interesting?

Opening the site, one is greeted by this joyful message: Welcome to “Crash the TEA Party” and then the lies start.

Under “About Us” we find . . . “Who we are:”

“A nationwide network of Democrats, Republicans and Independents who are all sick and tired of that loose affiliation of racists, homophobes and morons; who constitute the fake grass-roots movement which calls itself “The Tea Party.”

Having been to TEA Party events Rajjpuut can tell you, he’s yet to hear a single racist or homophobic comment and would put the population density of TEA Party morons at about 5% what you’d find at a union rally or among the progressive Democrats. The only hate spouted is by TEA Party detractors not by its members in Rajjpuut’s experience. Comments about “astro-turf” and “fake grass-roots movement” began with Nancy Pelosi and come from only one place: the Democratic Party, the only group mentioned who has a lot to lose because of the existence of the TEA Party movement. The TEA Party is an intellectual defense of the U.S. Constitution. Since the Democrats dare not openly attack the Constitution except in 5,000 page bills that attempt to tear American tradition and American values to shreds . . . they have been singing a tune of lies for over a year now trying to discredit the movement. The site’s message continues . . . .

“What we want:”

“To dismantle and demolish the TEA Party by any non-violent means necessary.”

This is another lie, the union goons that have thrown eggs, shouted curses, and tried to pick fights and beaten lone TEA Party members have shown no interest in non-violence. Goons are goons. Violence is their thing. Saul Alinsky in his “Rules for Radicals” advocated starting fights and confusion and then blaming it all upon the victims as standard operating procedure whenever facing opposition. Let’s see more from the website:

After talking about the disruptions and possible mayhem they hope to cause, the site mentions its goal: “to distance them from the mainstream of America and damage the public’s opinion of them.” And then ends with this joyful thought:

Sound like fun? It is! If you’d like to join us, just click on the word ‘CRASH!’ Below.” Which takes you to this link:

http://www.crashtheteaparty.org/phpBB3/

Which gaily salutes the user with the message, “Hello, Party Crashers!”

Then you have to register to become part of the “fun.” Sean Hannity mentioned the site earlier today and the humorous comments filling it up by TEA Party sympatizers overwhelmed the serious Party crashers cyberspace: Here are a few . . . a user called “Veritas Warrior” had this to say:This may be the fastest growing conservative website on the internet!! With a picture of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the caption: "Rightwing Radicals" describing the founding fathers in the painting.


A contributor called “Common Sense” said, “Just trying to figure this site out because it doesn't make much sense to me. The site says that they want to show how racist, hateful, and stupid the tea party people are by infiltrating their events and shouting racist hate speech and holding intentionally misspelled signs. Umm, if the tea party people are stupid, hateful, racists, why do you have to show up and act stupid, hateful, and racist in front of the media? Isn't it your position that they already are?

I have this sinking feeling that this is a parody website and I'm looking really foolish right now for not getting 'the joke'.

But seriously, what is this?”

In answer to Common Sense, a real Party Crasher replied, “How 'bout we just bust a boot off in your skinny, white, racist tebagging butt? Naaah...Waste of a perfectly good boot.” Which proves that all Party Crashers are not humorless.

The response his humor received was this:

"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds." Albert Einstein. From a user named HeyMentallyIllLibs.

Not finding any authentic Party Crasher content, Rajjpuut slid over to another subject in their forum: Tea-Baggers are Racist Radical Terrorist (Proof) (excuse their grammar). Someone calling himself enhancelogic: said,

You Tea-Baggers perversely murder in the name of 9/11.

You shout racial hateful words at your protests.

You all belong in jail with your Christian Militia friends.

GTFO my country you stupid racist radical tea-bagging terrorist!


_________________
GTFO my country you stupid racist radical tea-bagging terrorist!

And he got this response:

LMAO. Quoting the huffers at huffing post and cbs. LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Couldn't you get a quote from bill ayers or jeremiah wright?

lol. The Tea Party is your worst nightmare. You and your parents may even eventually have to get a job.

Someone called Party-of_Kuffar with 86 posts on the site to his credit asked,

Jesus-fuc__ng-CHRIST. Who's gonna throw the first Molotov already?” Rajjpuut edited out two letters from his message.

You get the idea, Rajjpuut is sure. The real haters, now that they’re known are being overwhelmed by polite but firm TEA Party responses.

Then something very strange and possibly verifiably true, but who knows?? Rajjpuut is only copying it here, because it gives you the flavor of what’s going on at the Party Crashers site . . . whatever you do, do NO violence, it could even be deliberately false information, again, who knows? But here it goes, from a user calling himself JohnLocke:

So, on balance, it seems CrashtheTeaParty.org really did turn into a “fun” site after all . . . but, remember some 200 such sites have sprung up . . . so expect violence and confusion at the TEA Party celebration and protest over Tax Day . . . .

Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

Rajjpuut just listened to yet another Democrat talking about the relationship between the TEA (taxed enough already) Party and the Ku Klux Klan and then he also mentioned the “hate-mongers like Glen Beck” with his very next breath. This is a typical example of the lame-stream media in action. Regular viewers of Beck’s show have often heard him close with “let truth be your anvil and non-violence your hammer and reject anything which doesn’t answer the test of truth and non-violence.” These words of Gandhi are very close to the spirit guiding the TEA Party and, of course, are the furthest thing from what CBS, NBC, ABC and CNN would like you to know about those “crazies that are attacking the programs of our Dems and our President.” The amount of lying about the TEA Party by the Obama administration and the congressional Democrats and the lamestream media has gone well beyond epic proportions . . . .

Supposedly when Nancy Pelosi and the Dems were walking in unison on the day that Obamacare passed, at least one TEA Party member shouted the word “nig__r” fifteen times at Representative John Lewis and another Black Democrat was spit upon by a white TEA Partier. Now fifteen times is an awful lot of racial abuse but somehow with all the mainstream and other media (including FOX News) in the area, not even one racial slur was aired on the public air waves. Andrew Breitbart has challenged Representative Lewis and his honor, in effect calling the good congressman “a liar.” Rajjpuut will herein repeat Breitbart’s offer of a reward of 10,000 paid out of his own pocket for conclusive videotape proof that one of these incidents occurred . . . .

“It’s time for the allegedly pristine character of Rep. John Lewis to put up or shut up. Therefore, I am offering $10,000 of my own money to provide hard evidence that the N- word was hurled at him not 15 times, as his colleague reported, but just once. Surely one of those two cameras wielded by members of his entourage will prove his point.

“And surely if those cameras did not capture such abhorrence, then someone from the mainstream media — those who printed and broadcast his assertions without any reasonable questioning or investigation — must themselves surely have it on camera. Of course we already know they don’t. If they did, you’d have seen it by now THOUSANDS OF TIMES.

“Rep. Lewis, if you can’t do that, I’ll give you a backup plan: a lie detector test. If you provide verifiable video evidence showing that a single racist epithet was hurled as you walked among the tea partiers, OR you pass a simple lie detector test, I will provide a $10K check to the United Negro College Fund.”

Looking over dozens of online videos, Rajjpuut has seen only one scene in which the “spitting incident” might reasonably have been THOUGHT to have occurred. In one scene a dark skinned man, presumably a Democratic representative, walks up the stairs through the assembled TEA Party protestors and one white fellow has his hands cupped around his nose and mouth to amplify his voice. It appears that this man is yelling, but the videotapes showing this incident are all “silent movies” for some reason. If this actually was a fellow yelling the “N-word 15 times it surely would have been picked up by somebody with live audio since it is very obvious that he is yelling something. As far as the spitting?? Well, again the onlyreasonable candidate located by Rajjpuut is that same possibly obnoxious fellow yelling and quite clearly he DID NOT spit, however, the possibility of hims spraying his message accidentally as he was saying it does exist . . . but there was no reaction by the dark-skinned man to indicate anything but being weary with the yealling as he calmly turned and continued up the stairs.

Supposedly the story of John Lewis’ horrific experience was witnessed by one of his associates . . . who like Lewis will NOT take a lie detector test, even to enrich the coffers of the United Negro College Fund. Just yesterday, a union man who said he was there has come forward and said he heard the racial slur and saw the spitting but was totally uninterested in providing evidence didn’t even wish to talk about who was filming when this all supposedly happened. Let Rajjpuut be very clear here: in the 2008 elections, there are racist claims and then there are racist facts: Barak Obama got more White votes than Kerry or Gore in 2004 and 2000 respectively . . . almost 48% of the White votes. John Mc Cain, who was a pretty good man, got just a bit over 4% of the Black votes. The highest percentage of real racists in this country are probably not going to be found among the White voters. Let us just say that if 8-10% of the Whites in America could be called serious racists then perhaps 40-50% of the Blacks might vie for that dubious honor.

Talking more personally about racism, President Obama listened for 20 years to Jeremiah Wright spewing hate from the pulpit before the cameras caught that magic “God Damn America!” moment as he proselytized about White’s treatment of Blacks in the United States . . . perhaps Obama and his administration and his fellow Dems are just accusing others of what they themselves are guiltiest about? Last time Rajjpuut looked, none of his ancestors ever owned a Black slave or even an indentured White servant; indeed Rajjpuut personally kicked the crap out of two much bigger (thankfully drunk) White fellows verbally assaulting a trio of Black girls so quite frankly accusing the Ol’ boy of being a racist or of being responsible for racism in this country is pretty darn stupid and yet that’s precisely what the Dems are doing . . . accusing every TEA Party advocate of hate and racism. And why? Just to detract the attention of the sillier branches of the media from the justifiable attacks on the Dems in congress for their anti-constitutional tax and spend and magnification of already too-big government agendas. Obama and his ilk have been playing the racism card for almost 40 months now on the national stage. It never was true, it isn’t true now and he ought to apologize right now. Fat chance of that man ever admitting a mistake, eh?

By the way, the Dems’ accusation that the TEA Party is made up of extremists and radicals was put down recently by not one but four different polls showing the TEA Party make up to include roughly 58% Republicans, 28% Independents and 14% Democrats; and another poll that showed that on most issues people in this country trust the TEA Party more than they do President Obama 48% to 42% and far more than the Democrats in Congress 21% or the Republicans in Congress 27%. And yet another poll by the mainstream media showed that 62% of TEA Partiers call themselves conservative; while 28% call themselves moderate; and 9% call themselves liberal; and while 34% of ALL Americans prefer Democratic candiates and 32% prefer Republican candidates; 28% prefer candidates supported by the TEA party.

On a related front, several TEA Party groups have created the National TEA Party Federation (NTPF)** and this central group has also announced alliances with the National Taxpayers’ Union and the following other organizations with fiscally-conservative agendas:

  • 60 Plus
  • Americans for Prosperity
  • Americans for Tax Reform
  • Bannon Strategic Advisors
  • Citizens Against Government Waste
  • Citizens United
  • Constitutional Sovereignty Alliance
  • Contract From America
  • Doctor Patient Medical Association
  • Family Research Council
  • FreedomWorks
  • Heartland Institute
  • Institute for Liberty
  • Let Freedom Ring
  • Moms for America
  • Ronald Reagan Institute for Conservative Leadership
  • Richard Viguerie
  • Tea Party Patriots Live!
  • Victory Media Group

Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

OBAMA WINS WAR OF RHETORIC

..but the republican effort was quite lame.

Despite what the majority of the public thinks (50.8% opposed,RealClear Politics poll average, 3/28), obama and the main stream mediaare all giddy over the passing of obamacare.

He has won the war of rhetoric and since we will not know for sure thatthis bill is a front and a fraud for another 7-10 years, obama has thewon the privilege to run about the country as egotistical as ever.

Some in the media will print what lies in the bill below obama'sguess-work rhetoric and expose what the bill really means to theaverage American.

Despite the sensibility of some of these discoveries, some exposed byfacts, obama has the advantage in knowing none of it will be actuallyproven until his presidency is dead and gone.

What a wonderful position for a sleazy politician to find himself.

obama has put off the guts of the bill for another 5 years and untilthen he and his foot soldiers will be able to cast any opposingopinions on the bill as right-wing, tea-bagging nonsense...as politicsas usual and as actions of the status quo.

He'll use pretty speeches and half-assed comedic statements on thestump to energize and indoctrinate his already blind supporters inbelieving his continued rhetoric.

Because we will not see the tragic consequences of this bill's passing until it slaps us up side the head.

obama's staff has told us that they have a mega-marketing campaignplanned to get the word out on what is in the bill. Shouldn't thishave been something they did months ago?

Actually they have, using the same rhetoric and dragging out some poorcrippled person or cancer patient to exploit for political gain.

They will not tell us what is actually in the bill or what it willactually mean to us, really, what they will tell you is how greatchange is and this is something you can believe in.

If you are not questioning why we never heard detailed specifics on howthis bill will work and its affects on the country from obama, his footsoldiers, and the media, then obama's rhetoric will fire you up sillyand you will clap your hands with glee while God blesses your ignoranceand the Constitution protects it.

We will be indoctrinated, not informed, with the message theadministration wants us to believe this bill will do and what itmeans. Unless we dig and search for the truth, obama has the advantageof hiding behind the curtain and providing us only with bright lights,pretty words, and stories of woe.

Most presidents will seek support from the public before a bill ispassed, obama has changed this method by first passing the bill nomatter what the public thinks.

Why?

Because he is well aware of how infatuated the public can be overpretty speeches and clever denouncements of the opposition's silly, offfocus antics; especially when supported by a biased and unprofessionalmedia.

With that infatuation, that indoctrination, obama can claim a hugevictory for change and thus an even bigger 'I told you so' at electiontime...yet, like his election, a claim based solely on style andlacking substantive substance.

It could have been different. Republicans in Congress should have donetheir job and reported to their constituencies the more egregiouselements of this bill. Similarly, the voting public could have donetheir research and added a little thought to imagine what couldactually happen under this bill and its affect on further legislation.

Republicans instead stuck by the "scrap it and start over" plan whichwas not a crowd pleaser and which was heavily criticized by the media.Not a good plan.

They played into obama's play on the obstructionist angle and they paid for it.

Then when they did offer 29 amendments to change the bill, obama's foot soldiers gleefully rejected the whole lot.

Yet it did not matter, obama has won the war of rhetoric.

obama could sleep with eldrick's leftovers now and it wouldn't matter for health care...he has won the war of rhetoric.

Whether TEA means "Taxed Enough Already" or "Taken Enough Abuse," Old Rajjpuut, has been encouraged by the Tea Party phenomenon beyond that of any other occurrence in political-activism since at least the days of Ronald Reagan, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Gandhi. Patriotic opposition and even a bit of civil disobedience against corrupt government and corrupt politicians is certainly long overdue in this country. The TEA Party, one hopes, will continue to be a vibrant fiscal-conservative backlash against the abuses of both major parties and the federal government and a strong PRO-voice

supporting the U.S. Constitution. Not a cut and dried "litmus test" but rather an intelligent range of views that define patriotism.

Just as the original Sons of Liberty which conducted the Boston Tea Party became the Whig Party; and the original abolitionists became outraged at the impotence of their Whig Party and gave birth to the Republican Party in 1854, let’s hope this new movement leads us back to our conservative, freedom-loving roots once again. Fiscal conservativism and social moderation and tolerance are worthy goals. To those ends here is a Suggested Unity Platform for the Tea Party:

Guiding Principles:

I. We hold the Declaration of Independence's truths to be self-evident that all men are created politically equal and own the unalienable rights to LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT of HAPPINESS. We believe in equality of opportunity, not forced equality by government theft and re-distribution. Each human life is potentially of great worth and dignity. Diversity of opinion and diversity of support are vital. Patriotism comes in many wonderful packages. We are a party of inclusion not exclusion. We welcome patriotic dissent as well as patriotic agreement. We expect “discussion” to be civil and search for win-win resolutions at all times, but we totally deny the idea of political correctness.

II. We believe that political correctness is gutless and dishonest. In its place we search for political integrity and the best possible results for the American people as a whole. We do not support or agree with notions of affirmative action. The family is sacrosanct, but after childhoold, each person stands on his own within the bounds of reason and compassion.

III. Because the original Tea Party consisted of radicals whose attack on the establishment on December 16, 1773 (flinging taxed tea crates into Boston Harbor) was a defiant act of civil disobedience, we embrace peaceful but intelligent and provocative defiance toward the present political establishment. We are the people and they govern at our pleasure, they work for us, we do not work for them. We loathe their current attempts at "Taxation without Representation" and consider our pocketbooks and our persons equally sacrosanct. The methods of Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Thoreau, our own founding fathers and Ronald Reagan provide a guideline for constructive, intelligent and effective actions.

IV. Patriotism means first of all respect for the U.S. Constitution and the men and women who’ve fought, died and struggled to make this country great.

Be it resolved that we hold this type of federal government to be self-evidently preferible to all others.

A. A Republic featuring Democratically-elected representatives


B. A federal government in line with the principles of the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution particularly the 10th Amendment.


C. The smallest possible federal government possible that can protect the people from aggressions foreign and domestic

D. The federal government which taxes the least, interferes in daily life the least and keeps it monetary affairs in good order


E. The federal government that honors the principles of complete separation and balance of executive, legislative and judicial powers and in honoring the 10th Amendment honors the balance of central government powers with state and local governments and with the individual.


F. A federal government that will not invoke nor allow ex post facto laws or ex post facto voting or scheduling of voting to fill vacant seats


G. A federal government which practices a balanced budget except in wartime or real emergency


H. A federal government that does NOT feature a central bank nor (except in wartime) allow national debt


I. A federal government that supports a strong currency


J. A federal government that honors and enforces separation of Church and State and favors no religion

K. A federal government which except as necessary (in keeping with the bill of rights) respects and does not interfere with or subvert the state government or the rights of individuals

Be it further resolved that the twenty-one principled behaviors and attitudes listed below outline the attributes of a true American statesman or stateswoman. We believe that candidates that adopt at least eighteen of them are worthy of our votes. We resolve to revisit and revise this list not less than once every eighteen months to keep it current, relevant and intelligent . . . .

The Twenty-One Statements

A statesman/stateswoman of integrity that patriotically represents the American people . . .

•1. Supports strong national defense


•2. Supports responsible capitalism and minimal government interference with honest and responsible captitalist endeavor


•3. Supports minimal taxation


•4. Supports smaller, more efficient, more effective and less onerous and interfering government


•5. Opposes socialism, Marxism, communism and social-progressivism in all forms and strives for repeal of Obamacare and all socialized medicine


•6. Supports reduction of and elimination of the national debt


•7. Opposes the existence of the federal reserve bank


•8. Opposes deficits and unbalanced budgets


•9.
Supports market-based health care reform


•10. Supports full exploration and use of America’s present energy storehouse and potential by the free market, including but not limited to nuclear power; oil-shale development; offshore drilling; drilling in the country itself, especially in the newly discovered huge Baaken Reserve Fields. Supports green-tech with minimal research funds and leaves development of those sources of energy to private businesses and individuals.


•11. Opposes mandatory unionization and card check; and supports secret balloting everywhere in America including in the jury room and work place


•12. Opposes cap and trade or other such energy legislation and is willing to revoke any such measures should they pass. Expects "global warming" to either become a real and proven science or disappear based upon its scientific merits or lack thereof, not on political power grabs and falsified data


•13. Opposes illegal immigration in all its forms


•14. Supports victory in Iraq and withdrawal within four years


•15. Supports victory in Afghanistan and re-building that nation’s infrastructure, especially schools and insisting that nation educate its women before eventual withdrawal. Opposes all terroristic activity.


•16. Opposes “marriage” by same-sex individuals; but supports civil unions without the right of adoption. for such people.


•17. Opposes public funding of elective health care options such as abortion and unnecessary plastic surgery


•18. Supports second amendment freedoms; opposes all irresponsible use of weapons of any sort; opposes violent felons ever getting the right to bear arms; opposes fully-automatic military assault type weapons in the hands of civilians; supports a strong National Guard and other military reserve INDEPENDENT of the federal government except in emergency or wartime necessity


•19. Opposes the irrational and violent governments of North Korea and Iran and supports all measures to stop their nuclear proliferation


•20. Supports all just laws. Supports abortion as the PRESENT law of the land but opposes federal or state funding of abortions. Respects the right of non-violent opposition to abortion and the right to seek a constitutional amendment limiting late-term abortions. Respects the right of peaceful protest and demonstration against all unjust laws and all unjust local, state and federal actions and laws.


•21. Opposes all government jobs creation. Outside of its legitimate limited functions, governments cannot create jobs that benefit the greater public; they can only tax and waste our money. Specifically opposes the present green jobs program of President Obama which will, in order to create the desired five million green-tech jobs, cost the country over eleven million^^^ real jobs. Additionally, the jobs created will be temporary in 91% of the instances; be low-paying in 94% of instances and be a sham. To create jobs and especially green tech jobs the Federal government needs to stand aside, lower taxes and enourage research, period. Supports private sector jobs growth by lowering taxes on business and individuals.

Resolved: candidates whose “track record” demonstrates substantial compliance with both the spirit and the letter of these "Twenty-One Statements" is considered a “friend of the Tea Party” and worthy of our full respect and support. Candidates whose “litmus test” results are very close to the seventeen agreement threshhold may also be supported on a lesser of two-evils basis. Candidates who substantially differ from these standards will be opposed by all legitimate means at our disposal.

Ya'all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

^^^ According to a Spanish study of the results of a similar experiment in their country leading to 18.7% unemployment, each government-created job cost the permanent loss of 2.2 real jobs from the wider economy. Some government created jobs were of extremely short duration, only roughly 9% were permanent and not many paid well.

Tea Party Radio Celebrity Receives Honors

Dr. Laurie Roth an outstanding radio host of her nationally syndicated “The Roth Show” was honored at CPAC numerous times.

Dr. Roth, PhD. hosted the first Tea Party Hour on her national talk show and continues it weekly from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. PST. The Tea Party Hour, also internet streams from her site at www.therothshow.com for those who are in non-broadcast locations.

Her first honor was an all expense paid round trip from her home in the State of Washington to CPAC. She enjoyed this exciting honor because of her diligent work in writing lead articles for outstanding News sites across the Internet. She has written over 50 articles for Canada Free Press alone, not to mention her articles being published on World Net Daily and other world class E-publications.

Her second honor came when she was asked to be the Master Of Ceremonies for the most prodigious event at CPAC. Dr. Laurie Roth introduced Newt Gingrich, Representative Ron Paul, Allen B. North, Brigadier General Van Hipp and a host of other “Who’s Who” of the Conservative Movement. Dr. Laurie Roth hosted the three hour event in the Marriot Ballroom, filled to capacity with over 5,000 people in attendance which was televised on CSPAN to a viewing audience numbering in the tens of millions.

Her third award was the best of all. Dr. Laurie Roth was honored by being nominated for the impressive Ronald Reagan Award. Each year less than 5 candidates from across America are considered for such a distinguished award. Dr. Laurie Roth’s enduring service to her nation, her ability to give breaking lead stories on her show, as well as being the first to host the Tea Party Hour, no doubt weighed heavy on the Judges decision to nominate her. Her miraculous recovery from a near fatal motorcycle accident and getting off life support no doubt had a bearing on her nomination as well.

After the announcement that the Ronald Reagan Award was given to all the Tea Parties it became obvious Dr. Laurie Roth also added to the over all influence of the Tea Party movement. No doubt her Patriotic influence by the promoting of the Tea Party with some of her best radio time is having a great impact on America.

After the award dinner was complete; Dale Robertson - President/Founder of the Tea Party, www.TeaParty.Org, interviewed Laurie Roth, she said: “I am so honored to even be considered, I am truly blessed and grateful for this moment.”

In another interview, Dr. Roth was quoted: “When I agreed to have the Tea Party Hour on my show, I knew this is what I was supposed to do. It felt right and I believe God is blessing it and me as well.”

Dr. Laurie Roth’s friends have sent her countless accolades.

Stephen Eichler, J.D. made this statement to the press about Dr. Laurie Roth:

“To think just a couple of years ago she was fighting for her life and now, she in on the stage introducing the leadership of America to the world. It makes me proud to call her my friend.

Laurie got off life support, and so can America.”
