According to Box and other people the Tea Party is a dying group so why so much attacks. Truth is the protest maybe slowing down but the idea of a small constitutional government has never been more popular as it is today.

The TeaParty is a dying group of bigots... but like a fatally wounded bull, they can do an awful lot of damage before they are declared dead.  Like their brethren in the John Birch Society, their movement will probably go through several reincarnations before being forever buried in the  cemetery of bad political ideas.

philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

You mean sort of like how Communism in Eastern Europe fell?  You know, that same movement that we're moving TOWARDS?

If doing a lot of damage means believing in the Constitution, smaller government, individual freedoms, and a balanced budget then bring on the damage.

It's always interesting when Conservatives display their 'selective memory' about the history of their movement.
Take the "balanced budget" for example:

Dwight Eisenhower was last Republican President to preside over a balanced budget. He had a balanced budget in 1956 and 1957.
Since then, there have been two presidents to preside over balanced budgets, LBJ in 1969 and Clinton in 1998 through 2001. During the last 40 years there have been five budget surpluses, all five were under Democratic Presidents: 1969, 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2001.

The Conservative rhetoric seldom matches Conservative history.  (just more Conservative BS)

Take the "balanced budget" for example:


The conservative memory is going further back...BEFORE 1913...BEFORE THE FEDERAL RESERVE...BEFORE KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS...BEFORE THE GLOBAL EMPIRE...

I don't think either party understands the type of conservatism/libertarianism hybrid the American people are beginning to embrace.  The people are sick of the Neo-Cons and the 1960’s Liberal big government ideals.  People realize that America isn’t in this precarious position because of any one president over the last 100 years.  This is the result of the collective big government welfare/warfare state policies, which has been funded by the central bankers and the Federal Reserve keeping Americans perpetually in debt.

American's are sick of hearing the same tired Republican vs. Democrat arguments they've been hearing the past 50 or 60 years.  

That's why it's the age of Ron Paul.  He's been predicting this day would come to America for over 40 years now.  That cannot be said for ANY of the other candidates - Republican OR Democrat.

THE AGE OF RON PAUL??

The "age of Ron Paul" is a very elderly, 76... which would make him 81 at the end of his first term.  
Paul if elected, would be 'The Oldest President in our history', 8 years older than Reagan (who took office at 69).

The Age Of Ron Paul is an election issue that can't be ignored by the voters.

The spending that Bush did was no better than what's going on in Washington now. All Reps are not conservatives nor are they friends of the Constitution.

Ron Paul is a leader of an idea, not just a national leader and candidate for President.  That is why the Presidency is an Administration, and Presidents appoint a cabinet, and appoints justices, and surround themselves with the like minded individuals that support and believe in the Paul idea.  I can honestly say I am not worried about his age.  Paul’s ability to appoint his administration and close down government bureaucracies through executive order, and direct the military, is enough for me to feel comfortable with voting for Paul.  

I'm voting for the IDEA - NOT the necessarily the person.  The idea of liberty and the Constitution is interchangeable from leader to leader.

you cant bury the TeaParty Movement just as you cant bury Martin Luther Kings memory......it's seeded.....just like the "dont trust anyone over
thirty" generation....and the "free love" generation

the movement will be talked about over and over and over and over....it's already in conversation....are there morons too far to the right..sure
they are the redherring of the left's conversation.....the issue is more generational than it is left or right....

the free love-stop 'the man' folks have dropped their gaze to graze and never looked up again...they got comfortable and failed to keep the machine
going that pokes the beehive,,,,,now they only have medicare to complain about.....that's not forward

now the hybrid of that generation and their kids are left.....the only problem is that they are less informed or told not to care about it because
the government will entitle you to comfort and benefits....

seems to me that is the opposite of what the "stop the man" folks wanted.....so whatever the tea party movement evolves to it is already seeded

and the central banking system---LIKES US LIKE THAT....so 'the man' continues....


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

The IDEA of Ron Paul as president is what??? A libertarian president with a Democrat and Republican congress.  The congress can ignore Paul when it comes to legislation... Paul's only option would be to veto.  Without the backing of Democrats or Republicans President Paul would become irrelevant.

If you want to see the future of the TeaBaggers in America, just look to the S&P "TeaBagger Downgrade".

at eachother and complaining about who has more than us or less than us......

what's your credit score and your future earnings? they drag you along like a donkey following a carrot THEY made.
