We all fondly remember reading in history class about the Boston Tea
Party, an event brought to us 'courtesy' of the Dutch East India Tea
Company, and the onerous taxes the Colonials had to pay if they wanted
to brew a decent cup of tea.
On the night of December 16, 1773, patriots headed by Samuel Adams (not
the brewery) dumped 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor, in protest of
the Stamp Act, the Tea Tax, and every other form of "Taxation without
Representation."
Even now, the event remains one of the most popular forums for school
plays, as children dress as American patriots disguised as Indians,
while their parents reflect upon the most famous act of political
dissent in American history.
Of course this was also a natural forum for the modern day, "Sons of
Liberty" tea-party protesters, who sought to mimic the original
taxation w/o representation platform, as conservatives sent their
"warning" to Congress, and reassured fence-sitting independents that
not everybody agrees with the left.
The original Sons of Liberty were disguised as Indians, so as not to be
a spectacle that could invoke the wrath of the British Crown.
But the modern version of the tax-day tea parties may only have served
to invoke the wrath of the angry, in-your-face, mean-spirited leftists
who now unabashedly control the levers of power in this country.
Ironically, what actually took place this last April15th may only end up backfiring on the GOP.
The orderly, family-atmosphered tea parties proved one thing: conservatives still aren't done "playing nice", while the Democrats rule uncontested, and undoubtedly will play hard ball with the republican minority until at least 2011.
But there was one decidedly major positive outcome: It filled up a big
hole in the GOP's organizational skills, helping them realize the
unifying political power of the internet-- one of the key strategies
formerly the exclusive tool of the Obama camp.
But just like the "I hope Obama fails" comment, the brilliant, Machiavellian democrats used the tea parties
as an excuse for putting their agenda on fast forward.
Indeed, it’s all about 'compressing the time frame.'
Obama knows he must hurriedly empty his socialist ammo clip. He'll let his henchmen (er henchpersons) Nancy Pelosi and Harry
Reid ramp up the dirty work he was saving for the latter part of his
first term, and move it on up now and "let ‘er rip."
Republicans claim the big national turnout "sent a message" to moderate democrats: "They're aware that we're mad"... "people
have had enough"... "we're not gonna stand for all this spending and
taxes, and robbing our children's future"...etc.
But the real message they managed to send Mr. Obama was, "Hurry up before November 2010." Until then, our anti-president knows America will remain
under one-party rule. So it's "damn the tea parties...full speed ahead."
The result? Leftist overkill! The Waxman-Markey bill-- the Stalinist edict on
"dangerous CO2" emissions; Obama's pending amnesty reform bill; the
democrat's 'reconciliation plan', a sneaky, back door manipulation to
pass nationalized health care; cap ‘n trade climate change legislation; green
energy; takeover of the banks; government take over of the auto
industry-- they're all happening at once!
Obama has put 'em all on fast forward, knowing that if he continues to be
attacked from the right, it only garners MORE suport from his left, as
long as he has the majority on Capitol Hill.
It's called painting by the numbers -- Obama's Marxist portrait of how to destroy the Constitution in his first 100 days.
So instead of a 2012 'benchmark for completion' for Obama's socialist
transformation, it’s merely been compressed by 24 months.
Obama now says..."just get everything out the door by Jan. 2011, and
we'll have more time for fudging the census, and preparing for my 're-coronation' in January 2013."
Obama senses his "window" has opened even wider-- he's eminently
shrewd enough to see it may close by January of 2011 -- so he's firing all
his guns at once before the ignorant 'middle ground' electorate can
perceive his true agenda, and by that time-- like a metastizing socialist cancer-- it'll be too late.
Obama rightly figures, "Bring it on...the more opposition from the right, the merrier."
As long as the media stands firmly behind their messiah, the
republicans can hold tea parties till political eternity, and it'll be
little more than an excuse to disparage them as a bunch of "right wing
extremists"...”whackos who want to hurt our president”... "kooks"..."racists"..."the crazy far-right, with a tendency towards
violence"...and...“tools of the rich who don't want to pay their fair share
of taxes".
When will the republicans learn? Obama cannot be attacked from the
right while his support from the media and the left is intact; i.e.,"Obama
cut your taxes, what are you protesting?"
And talking about Obama's birth certificate (and other such egregious
stupidity) may end up hurting the GOP, as the clock ticks ever closer
to Nov. 2010, and the republicans have yet to find a "political Moses"
of their own.
Recall how the leftist media cleverly played down the dignity of April 15, treating the tea parties more like an “MTV Spring Break”
event for Fox news, instead of taking a more somber, journalistic
approach.
So all ye modern Republican Sons of Liberty; how do you respond in the face of such staunch adversity?
Just like the original Sons, who did great economic damage to the
Crown, you must attack leftist king Obama where he's vulnerable-- from his
left-- and damage him by the numbers!
But how do the republicans attack a radical leftist from the left? Just like Obama does...divide and conquer.
First, remind his moderate congressional support that every vote for an Obama
policy is the slippery slope to defeat. Do any democrats desire to
fall on their political swords in 2010, for he (Obama) that will be immune for
at least 4 more years?
Remind his legions of leeches --his core support of government
dependents-- that Obama (and Geithner) have spent 100-1 in favor of Wall Street vs. Main
street: only 20 billion extra for food stamps, but trillions so far to
the Wall Street and banking entities -- a clever masquerade of betrayal
of the people whom he professes to so solidly support.
Expose this sham...reveal the messiah as the political puppet of the
super rich leftist George Soros-- a man who pulls all the political
strings of the Obama marionette.
Remind his leftist media support that as they continue to broadcast
their one-sided portrayal of the great infallible Obama, this will
only continue incensing the people who actually buy newspapers, and
watch the 6:30 PM national news, and drive their shrinking core
audiences to Fox.
Like the scene in "Godfather, Part II"-- where Tom Hagen disputes the
futility of Mike Corleone's assissination plot against Roth
-- the republicans must ask the fawning Obama media…"is it worth it?
Yes; is it worth it to continue to support a man who has polarized
America like no other in history? Is it worth it to support a bitter
partisan divide that will only weaken our economy, and eventually put
all the major news services in jeopardy, as their older audience
shrinks, and the young seek out their politics from Comedy Central
and Face Book?
So is it worth it for all you media people to self-destruct on the rocks
of Obammunism, and stand behind the most subtle, socialist charlatan to
ever occupy the Whitehouse?
And is it worth it for all you leeches to keep depending upon your monthly Obama check,
when the kitty may one day run dry, and Obama is long gone and retired on
his princely presidential pension?
Yes, can it be worth it to be so short sighted, when the hard realities of life will always remain?
There can be no future in supporting the Pied Piper of Marxism-- all that missing is Obama's ability to play the flute.
Only unemployment, higher energy bills, higher costs of
living, inflation, loss of America's economic power-- these will be
the ultimate legacies of Barack Obama.
Yes republicans-- this is all fertile ground for the taking-- use the
next round of tea parties to not directly attack Obama, but undermine
his support on the left. Everyone's bottom line is their own best
interests at heart.
Partake of the wisdom of Thomas Jefferson; know exactly what you're all up against...the tyranny of the majority!
As Jefferson once wrote..."A democracy is nothing more than mob rule,
where 51% of the people may take away the rights of the other 49%."
