At first I figured that it would come down to some sort of censorship issue...
Then maybe I figured it would come to some sort of angle of Government controlling companies...

I did not see this somehow becoming a civil liberties thing. I don't really want to fight for a company's right to bend me over...

corporations are not people, no matter what the right wing supreme court wants to think. Libertarians are completely off their nut if they think that picking corporate power over government power will make a better country.

snowjeeper · 08-13-2010, 01:39 PM

a bunch of angry white people mad that the economy sucks and delusionally blame the president because he's black.

This is the best definition I have ever seen.

well it basically is. if mccain had won, the tea party would still be a small fry libertarian movement.

so a / the Tea Party is basically a bunch of xenophobic upper-middle class people, who wish to aspire the common good to greatness (as long as they can over see it).... just as in the good old days?

it is interesting how the fog of domestically based turmoil might function to obscure what is being done further afield. kind of like, 'dont worry about the people in that other land, especially when those in the next street are threatening to undermine what is important to you!'

They tend to be lower-middle to lower class, poorly educated, and prone to suggestion.

Anyone with anything more than a bachelor's degree is automatically labeled as a liberal elitist. Open disdain for science and higher education.

The penultimate American that the rest of the world makes fun of.
