I for one have been just dying to hear the christian zealots on the right trip over themselves to justify the new satanist in their little private tea party.

46 Days to Decide: Dem Candidate Coons Comes Under Scrutiny in Delaware Senate Race

....Coons wrote about his political evolution from a conservative college student who founded the Amherst College Republicans into a Democrat suspicious of America's power and ideals. The transformation, he said, came during a trip to Kenya.....

Oh really?

LOL...Pepsi will have to dig pretty deep on "Situational Relativisim" to justify.

SO some woman experimented with doinking a Witch/warlock? WHOOPTIE Doo...It didn't seem to matter that the PrezBO and Moochelle were "life long" members of an avowed Racist Church in Chicago. And that they had attended all the services but couldn't remember some of the most racist and inflammatory statements ever made by the bigoted and hypocritical Minister.

NAH Strat, pepsi will go out backpacking rather than face the fact that he is a bigot.

sorry XL, but you can't lump me in with this scary evil "them" you're so afraid of. I'm not a big fan of the democrats (including out current puppet in chief) either. As I've said repeatedly, I think both sides of our political spectrum are so corrupt, hypocritical and disgusting that I'd love to see nothing less than this "revolution" that all you little Che's are playing at.

However, I would say that THIS falls directly in line with that hypocrisy mentioned above. I've seen the teabats mention many times how this is about bringing back good ol' christian american values. And here, their candidate turns out to have "dabbled in witchcraft!"

I'm sure the teabats didn't realize this during their celebrations. However, it seems that the honest thing to do - the way to stay true to your ideals, this being about values and all - would be for the teabats to immediately denounce her and admit their mistake. Otherwise, they're just blindly marching lock step with their party, sacrificing ideals and beliefs in favor of winning (fyi: it's not a football game). Like the democrats. Like the commies. Like the fascists. If you support her after all your chanting of values and god, you are a hypocrite. You are a drone. You are everything that is wrong with this nation's voters. The only honorable and sound thing to do would be to sack up, admit a mistake, and move on. It won't kill you.

But as you and strat have proven, that won't be happening. Strat still seems to think I'm a democrat and somehow support the crooked politician he uses as an example above. Not only is that a mistake, but that's irrelevant. That's the same pathetic excuse that Obama supporters use when someone criticizes him - "you think he's bad? look at Bush!" If your only response to learning your supported candidate is a satanist is to point at the other side, then you don't have a leg to stand on. And if the only way you can engage in political discourse is to fall back on an "us and them" stance and lump anyone who doesn't march lock step with your propagandists into the "them" pile, we're never gonna get anywhere

I don't watch TV at all. I don't even have cable. But if it helps you to believe that, then I won't stop you.

All I'm saying is show a little integrity. Have some backbone. A coward can hide behind a crowd, but a courageous person is the one who stands out when that crowd goes against his beliefs. Is this person really who you want in office? Forget about her opposition for a second (a career politician and therefore a piece of shyt himself). How can you with clear conscience sit there and support a person who admits that she got into witchcraft and had a date on a satanic altar? I know you're a strong believer in your ideals strat... so step back for a second and stop with the counterattack. Is this really a person you want to put your support behind?

And don't tell me, don't even TRY to tell me for one second, that if she had a (D) next to her name, you wouldn't be singing a whole different song about the severety of her dalliences into the black arts. If not for me, surely you respect yourself too much to attempt such hypocrisy. Take the title off... don't look at her as a Tea Party candidate at all... don't look at all the posturing things she and all candidates say to get elected. Look at who she is. Is this a person you can truly get behind with clear conscience?

you don't have to respond on here... in fact, don't. I'm gone for the day too and, honestly, I respect you and XL enough to just drop it...

but ask youself, if she had a (D) next to her name, would you really admit to something like "dabbling in witchcraft" as a teenager doesn't mean she's a satanist now? Honestly and truly, if this was a member, say, of Obama's cabinet, would you really think it was "no big deal"?

after all, if you replace "witchcraft" with "communism"... lol

When the (T) fights the (R) and the (D) with the same Hollywood Methods as the(D) and (R), then the actors and their parts( Tea Parts) become so obvious to everyone that they are just PAU (Politics as usual) and nothing more.

Well I voted my dream girl; I voted my dream girl
But she didn't tell me her credit was bad
So now instead of livin’ in a pleasent suburb
We’re living in the basement off her campaign cash

No, we can't get a loan, for a respectable home
Just because my girlfriend’s party wouldn’t regulate swaps
Now if they had only left Glass-Steagall alone
We would not have suffered all those stock market drops

Mutt, it's real. You won't ever understand it, I can see that. But believe me, it's real. We feel it. We're not crazy or stupid, WE ARE FED UP. It's common sense based on logic and truth. It's a philosophical movement. A mind-meld, if you will. Restoration is the goal.

They don't respect us, they don't fear us, they don't care what we think, they don't value anything but power.

That's all about to change.

Maybe then you and the other smarty pants up in here will believe it's real.
Stratd00d

Did I say it was not real? Like any other club, though, its raison d'etre is often not the prime motivation for its membership. As nebulous as the tea party is, it would be even more susceptible to that, I would think. It gives the "little guy" a chance to sound like an authority and vent steam and have that special sense of belonging, which is obviously highly appealing, judging from what I've read here. History is replete with examples of this.

Well I don't really know much about raisins but you are very clearly implying that we are somehow being manipulated by some sort of mysterious longing to be special...and by extension it's not a pure movement. I got new for you, we are special. Arrogance is the problem. It leads to darkness.

think of it this way; We see where they are taking us and we instinctively know that it's not going to end well and we are honest enough to admit that to ourselves and most importantly we know it's our responsibility, our duty to correct things. It won't all happen with this election and there will be some exceptions but expect a bloodbath in November

I see nothing wrong with being simple or with a lot of what the TP is trying to do. What bothers me is what they don'T seem to want to talk about which most times are the very things that are most important to the country as a whole. We do have, left and right now, so many massive problems, but our attention is only on the things that 'Those people have done', but never what 'we the people have done', that are wrong that is, eh?

Tilt is spreading lies. The teabaggers kicked out many institutional Republicans out of office this primary season and that proves that they are legit. It's the establishment that we are fighting.

Also,General motors, owned by the government(that's you and me) is funding Democratic elections today, right now.

It doesn't matter how many times you say it, they are Americans. Unhinged? Oh hell yeah they are, watching their society being fundamentally transformed against their will will do that.

You've heard of the book "Rules for Radicals," haven't you? That's brings us back to Obama's religion. No ... he's not a Muslim. And no, I don't really buy this Christian thing either. Obama's Christianity exists to serve his political soul, not his spiritual one. "Rules for Radicals," by Saul Alinsky, is Obama's bible and his god is government. In that book Alinsky wrote:

"If they could get the middle class, along with the poor, to envy the rich, they could control the largest voting bloc and seize all the power they'd need."
