Are the American 'Tea Parties' reactionary, an attempt by the far right to undermine the Democratic Victory? - justgoodfolk - 03-25-2014 05:18 PM
But maybe even Democracy itself? Will Democrats stand up to this like they stood up last November? Or is it simply not worth it and are these isolated right wingers none of your concern?
Thanks

It's both
A Constitutional Republic is a form of Democracy. You were saying?

The Tea Parties aren't just for Republicans.....they're for Conservatives, Independents, Democrats and anyone who believes in the Constitution.
4,000 in Ohio, another 4,000 in Orlando.
This isn't just a fringe group, this is a group of people who have had it with our Government........it doesn't matter if there is an ® or a (D) next to their name.

As one of those "right wingers", I can tell you that this is how Obama won - by tapping the outrage of the population. Now we're the ones outraged and the revolution is growing daily.
Your days are numbered liberals.

Yes. Homemakers & school teachers are such an insidious lot.

They are in the last throws, if you will, of neoconism.

Why is protesting a threat to democracy? Stupid libs have been protesting for decades at the drop of a hat. Why shouldn't conservatives get in the game and make a few signs of their own and yell the same slogans democrats do?
Dems don't stand up to anything; they are weak when it comes to a real fight.

Are you saying that only left-wingers have the right to stage protests?
