Tea Party Blasts Boehner "The Senate Deal Is A Complete Sellout"
While the House looks set to vote for the Senate bill and kick the can just a little down the road, the Washington Post reports that at least one tea party group is calling for Republicans to hold their ground.
"The Senate deal is a complete sellout. Speaker Boehner and the House should stand firm and reject this deal to reign in the executive branch’s power before it is too late,”
-Tea Party Patriots head Jenny Beth Martin said.
“The House ‘leadership’ must stop playing ‘flinch’ with themselves, and instead, play hardball with the White House, the Senate, and the House. Otherwise, hard-working Americans are going to bear the burden of this unaffordable law (Obamacare). The American people will hold those responsible for this mess accountable.”

Its the "people's house", dumbass. Maybe you should get a set as big as her's and pick a side. Keeping the power in the House IS what is right for the country.
Apparently you are MR. Jenny Beth Martin.
Your mouth is in obvious confirmation of and disproportionately horribly affected by your imbecility.
You somehow seem to have tied your disaffected nether regions to your vocal cords.
That sadly terminal problem for you is seriously affecting your central nervous system ability to make logical argument aside from bloviated epithet.
Get it?
In simple, very simple language for you:
Drop dead because you have no more idea of what is right for the country than you have any idea which end of a horse your face most closely resembles.
But it is quite obvious by your comment that it is not the horses front end.
I agree.
Let's send Congress home and make Obama Emperor for life.
Solve that power and politics problem.
Obama is as much a part of the problem as the rest of them.
Let's send him home too.
Damn! I would love to buy you for what you are worth and sell you for what you THINK you are worth!
All that blah blah and you didn't say jack shit!
I know this! This is the greatest form of gov the world has ever experienced and it was great when it operated within the guidelines of the the rulebook (the Constitution). They took senators away from the people, the president has been a silver spoon prima dona for the last 40 years, the Supreme Court has always been full of over educated, self bloviating fools, and the House is the people's last stand before we go to total anarchy.
We are in anarchy right now and it is only the character of the average American that holds this society together. The Tea Party is full of people who work hard, honor thier commitments, and obey the rules. Hell, the gov doesn't even do that anymore and when they make rules, they love to exempt themselves. We have no leadership, and when the House refuses to listen to the people, we have no representation. Just a matter of time and this will collapse on itself.
Don't bring your liberal ass to my house looking for a handout, unless it is lead you seek. Some of you fear the thought of ever being without Washington, while others of us dream of the day it sinks into the swamp on which it sits.
"Reign in".......a Freudian slip or just another example of the TP's inadequate grasp of language? Sloppy spelling doesn't always reflect sloppy thinking but sometimes it can be seen as an indicator..........
Honestly, I look at it as 3 more months I get to prepare for when the EBT cards actually don't get funded. This past weekend was helluva an eye opener as to what happens when the soup lines close.
Off to get a new 9mm...
good luck with ammo search...at least i cant find any..lots of 40 though
when is the Tea Party going to wake up to the fact that you cant make changes within the current paradigm? after all, was the Boston Tea Party not the start of the colonists revolutionary acts?
Most everyone is going to have to wake up and realize that most people in this country (tea party included) could not handle the pain that is necessary to set it back on the right track.
It will take what it took to win this country in the first place; blood, sweat, tear, etc. The parallels between what is going on in Washington and how we were being treated under king George are sooooooo clear. Why do we think what didn't work back then will work today? Why would we think it would not take the same thing today as it did back then?
We have lost the grit to get it done?
Re: We have lost the grit to get it done?
If King George had spread the loot to 50% of the population do you think there'd have been a revoltion?
Gimma a break, everybody that MATTERS is living REAL fine off of their favorite Big-Gov scam: Big-Ag, Big-MIC, Big-Road, Big-Water, Big-Airport, Big-Energy, Big-Ed, Big-House, Big-Fin, Big-OldFart, Big-OldFartHealthcare, Big-AntiDrug, & Big-PoliceState.
When the OldFart demand their socialism gets cut, then you'll know IF "We have lost the grit to get it done" or not.
Until then, it's all "Conservative" (with the quotes) bullshit.
That Big-Gov scam I'm living off of isn't socialism, it's an investment in our children's future.
I'm your Oldfart. What "socialism" are you referring to? The one I've been paying in to my entire working life? Tell ya what, write me a check for every dime I've put into the ponzi scheme, plus interest, and you can take me off the SS rolls next year when I hit 66. You win, your 30-something pals win, and I'll survive just fine knowing I won't have to listen to all the whining about how boomers are going to destroy your ability to buy a new iToy every 18 months.
That was good. Big differrence between socialism and facism. Some born in a land of plenty will find it tough going when it gets really bad. Yepper, all these shouts of tear it down will turn to where can I hide should it ever occur.
+1. you are absolutely right. blood sweat tears and sadly a decrease in population would have to occur for any chance of prosperity moving forward. the countrys population growth has occurred due to generous benefits and artificial economic growth, both of which can no longer be sustained. sadly, we have masses of people that are left with no skills, no incentive, no avenue for self sustainment. there are far too many people who are conditioned to believe the government is needed in all its glory to resolve their issues.
its impossible to move forwards within the current paradigm.
Um....
The Boston Tea Party WAS making a change in the current paradigm.
Tea tax? No tea...no tax. Get it?
Do it yourself negotiations tend to be a bit more flamboyant than the representational kind but that's to be expected when the majority of 535 reps are pretty damn comfy just coasting along.
Personally, I would have loved to see the Boner grab Reid and punch the everloving shit out of him but that's just me and my preference for proactive problem solving methods.
They had to get this off the table, the sheep were starting to understand the process and see the light. Back to the Kardashians.
I guess the lease ran out on the strap-on spines that the republicans rented. oh well, it was a good show.
Can't wait for Obama to appear
he is going to rip the house and senate Tea Party like nothing you have seen
Mission Effing Accomplished
up next
watch for suggestions that Cruz be brought up on charges of some sort as the canuck pussy has just come out from under his desk in the past hour and stated he will not oppose the senate bill
It ain't over until it is over but this theater should set the table for 2014 midterms. That is the real fight for change here. This is where the vets lead charge and everyone else backs it up at all levels. There is more of us than them just a matter of coordinating small decentralized groups to work towards the same ends using local tactics. Can't have one large central group they will attack and shut it down before it can be effective small and spread out is the key. It is the net sum that counts not the size of a single aggregation.
You fuckers know what you got to do so get cracking and start with your friends and neighbors and build from there. Build from bottom up, build to last.
As they do it in certain communities, force multipliers bitchez. Lot more effective in working locally using a few well trained individuals to organize and focus locally where there is still trust among individuals than trying to create a giant organization and getting everyone to join up at once. I don't mean just the typical stuff one thinks of, you create strong local communities that can operate outside the system maximizing local resources and that includes financial skills, land management, infrastructure, communication systems etc. You need people with individual skills and a systems engineer type in these small scale force multiplier teams and then have them help locally leverage it so the sum is something to be reckoned with. Birds of a feather and amplification effect.
Show time is over.
Or could it get worse?
Lot's of pissed off people.
It is going to get worse. Let them spend like drunken sailors. bring on the pain it will force clarity. These fuckers are trying to bring it but not enough to force clarity. Time to short the system every way possible. Bitcoins, refuse to use debt cards except at the bank to withdraw cash, don't file tax returns, etc. IRS should be taken head on next. Go after the mouth that keeps the beast fed. It is quite simple short the system every way possible (you don't have run around with a gun playing rambo to short the system( and only use where necessary and no more than that. Vote with your actions and wallet, it is not rocket science.
Bingo...... NOthing happens till we make it happen!
Vive Le France, Monsieur Boner...
Well I wrote my Republican Senator and my Republican Congressman through their federally sponsored websites to ask they hang tough. When I tried to reach my Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown, the pop-up window said due to the shutdown his website was not working. Poppycock! If the website is working enough to pop-up a window and display a message its working enough to pop-up the contact page. Its not like some staff member has to fetch pages when I click.
Mitch McConnell is up for reelection this fall. I will be too busy watching the dog sniff turds on the lawn to bother voting- or so he better hope. I plan on voting for the other guy- Matt Bevin. Not that I know a real thing about him, but I do know how McConnell has pissed me off for the last time.
Sometimes I wonder if Man wouldn't have been better off if he had'nt discovered fire...
We all would be better off if voters had resisted the free stuff from the politicians.
America would still be a great country, if the Public-checkbook was used responsibly.
Where I grew up you laid down and let someone take your wallet, a line would soon form of people willing to see how long you would allow. Stand up fer Christ sake!
Garden of Eden was Utopia. People speak of the apple to make a good story, but FIRE was the real event.
This is laughable. Just Kabuki theatre for the media types. Never intended to let the default happen.
Does any body read the FACTS with in the Republican Charade?
1) Affordable Care Act is a bill that passed the House and Senate. It is a LAW now
2) The Supreme Court said it was constituitional, Doh!!
Now the Republicans want to negotiate a bill that is law and confirmed by the Supreme Court?
I thought Republicans were all about LAW and ORDER?
If you don't like it. Then amend it once it is implemented.
I am old enough to have marched in civil rights movement and Vietnam protests. Plus, prevented the ELF system not to be installed in upper Michigan in the 1980's. Ended up in Wisconsin and then migrated to Michigan in the 1990"s Hard to fight money and military prowess with just empirical evidence.
The people who believe that one should work hard, do good, and follow the rules have LOST. Dennis Miller is right--liberals have won and let them feed the poor people. Anyone who owns a business and has the means, sell your business and create a local community that is off the grid.
Boy, I agree. If you need any seed potatoes, holler. I've also got an extra bicycle powered blender and manual washtub/ringer for barter.
"The people who believe that one should work hard, do good, and follow the rules have LOST."
And "today" was your first indication of that? It's how i has been, is and will be til the people get off there ass and stop being corporate lemmings
pithy-You are a pithy example of what John Taylor Gatto has warned of. I have no doubt that you did march in the 60's. You probably should have stayed in school for spelling/grammer lessons instead. Are you not aware that at one time, slavery and poll taxes were also the law of the land? At one time, by law, women could not vote in this country? The Congress has the authority to allocate funding and the executive branch (to you, the president) administers them? As for whatever "ELF" is, YIPPIEE!! Oh, that's right, you probably still are a yippie...
Lol.
Oblamo: "Hey, I managed to bribe enough people to pass this shitty subsidy for my insurance pals and now I need billions to get it going..."
House: "Fuck off and die. A law ain't a law if you got to panhandle to make it happen. We got the wallet."
This didn't happen. Yet.
Sterotyping anyone who was against the Vietnam war. Yippee, you just labelled a bunch of Vietnam Vets!
How much do I have to donate to be pardoned exempted from this law you speak of? Now was the exemptions from this law granted by the WH written in or made up? Why wait to have it amended when the Pres can decide who has to follow the law. The corporations of America got a one year exemption why can't even one else in America?
Bullshit law, passed in a bullshit Congress, giving handouts to politically connected.
"The corporations of America got a one year exemption why can't even one else in America"
Because we are corporate fodder and apparently enjoy it.
The House can defund any law, if it so chooses.
Brillance. Pass a law, negate a law, pass a law negate a law. Every 4 years we get whole new set of laws. Vote them all out!
Pithy, yepper, been there done that among a few actions causing embarrasment to a bank or two. Just wanted to share some down votes with ya.
Ain't this the epitome of hypocrisy?
How can Obama UNILATERALLY, without any vote from Congress, suspend the implementation of the Employer Mandate Section of the ACA?
Whom appointed Obama DICTATOR?
The Republicans allow Obama to do this?
Well I do not like it.
You believe that you have a victory? You support your children's, grandchildren's and your own Death Sentence?
Sieg heil Herr Obama? You are part of the problem, pal. You are just another SOCIALIST, JUST LIKE THE REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS.
Of course the REPUBLICANS...ALL OF THEM...ARE the Red Team Faction of the Socialist Party. It is not better Red than Dead. The Republicans and anyone whom supports them are Communists. They are worse than the Democrats in that they hide their True Colors.
Well...Vive le Resistance! There may be a lot of Blood spilled in a Revolution before there is a Resolution.
All that is needed is 5% to 10% of the population. Let them cut off SNAP. Soon they will have to. Then it will be a bloody payback bitchez.
Bone Her sold his constituents out. He is so out of touch. Must be the tanning booth. Poor fellow. I doubt the Repugnicans can ever win another election....even if they cared to.
Some wrench will be tossed into the mix.. I'm not buying the "deal is in" just yet. A 3 month deal is even laughable! har har .. similiar to going to the local pawn shop for a loan.
Lets wait for market close before we get the truth.
Congress to America: "Shut up and grab some ankle bitches!"
Only thing good from Tea Bagger party was the chick with giant corn dog in her mouth.
At 10mm, I think you have grandiose ideation as to your true potential.
That's not a corn dog.
As you call them, the Tea Baggers are Not corporate executives, are NOT welfare recipients, and are NOT politicians. Tea baggers are far from perfect and surprisingly have diverse perspectives; however, they are hard working people who believed the rules were fair and told their kids to work hard, be good and follow the rules. Tea Baggers are the foundation of this great country, because they work. I wish more minorities were invovled, but the ones who are make your heart go warm with pride.
Yes, they realize they have been fools for believing in the rule of law. I tell them take their marbles and go home. Let the Politically Correct crowd feed and house the poor and create the country they want WITHOUT TEA BAGGER money!!!!!!
"the Tea Baggers are Not corporate executives,"
Correct, they are corporate puppets! Jeez man do the research. Any "working man/woman" that thinks the Tea Party is their friend is delusional. They very quickly moved from independence to "paid for" by the Rich Republicans who were/are not adverse to buying Supreme court justices (e.g. Scalia, Thomas). Rule of law, right?
I'll probably be called Liberal for stating the truth as Tea Bagggers generally paint anyone who doesn't agree with them with the same brush. But hey, like it or not, truth is truth!
If you have never been to a Tea Party meeting and you have no farmers in your first degree network, you will not understand my response.
Tea Party people are as independent as farmers. These people are uncontrollable and this independence will likely be their downfall. As any organization--republicans, democrats...--, they need money and they take money from anyone with the means and interest to give. As we all know, money equals power; however, Tea Party is driven by principles much more so than republicans and democrats. The Declaration of Indepence, Constitution, The Creator, Individual Effort/Hard Work and Independence are their foundation that provides their confidence to stand strong. MSNBC and the MSM fear their confidence because they think they are the wise men (god of the stupid masses) and there is no god above them. I admire the Tea Party people even though I remain a republican and fear their divisive power.
Per Scalia and Thomas, you pick outcomes to support your point. Playing your silly game, who the hell appointed John Roberts? John Roberts allowed the USA government to tax people who do not do what the government tells them to do. The PRECEDENCE this sets for a fascist state to control your life is mind-boggling!
"The Senate deal is a complete sellout. Speaker Boehner and the House should stand firm and reject this deal to reign in the executive branch’s power before it is too late,”
-Tea Party Patriots head Jenny Beth Martin said.
I concur 150%
The Tea Party made the fatal mistake of trusting the politicians in Washington and hoping they'd actually do something different for once. kito is 100% right. You can't make changes within the current paradigm. Not when you have 40+ years of fiat currency and 100 years of the Fed.
Did anybody REALLY think Boehner was going to fully follow through on defunding Obamacare? Remember, this is the same guy that also voted for TARP. If Boehner sold his soul to the banksters, there was no way he was going to actually try to defund Obamacare. It was all talk.
Maybe you could call it "performance art?"
Look, Boehner gave it one last shot and then went soft.
What else could he do?
FRANKIE SAY RELAX
Welcome to the USSA. Amerika has been born. FUCK YOU ALL. I'm over and out of this entire game.
Boehner may as well just coronate him King George OBAMA, the Dictator of Debt!
Did anyone really think this wouldn't happen? It's a charade, it's fixed, they all work for the same people, the corporations. They're all the SAME!! Wake up and start demanding hangings. Form lynchmobs and hang these fuckers.
Obamacare is needed to allow an ever increasing public speding. How else should all the freshly printed FED dollars be handed out to the economy if not by public spending? I bet Obamawar will come any time soon as well.
Lets see how much more Obamashit will be invented to keep the madhouse running.
I call that bold talk for a one-eyed fat man.
Seriously folks, the Tea Party is a bastion of conservatism? The money-soaked, spy-riddled Tea Party... a majority of which voted to extend funding for the Afghanistan boondoggle back in 2009?
I bet more Tea Bagger's lost their boys in Afghanistan and Iraq than any other segment of the population.
And that means what???
When you've thought you've seen it all. When it's total despair. Tom Brady can still win the game.
I wish Tom Brady was running America with a strategic mind like Belichick behind him.
They may be right or they may be wrong, but they have HONOUR. They back their words with blood. They do not use their power to spill the blood of others.
I suppose they could have fired them all and made em walk home...
"Thanks guys, and good luck."
I'm pleased that some agreement was reached before a default. I would also like those responsible for these acts of waste to actually pay for the damage they caused, around $15 billion' worth. I don't want to pay the bill. We need to send it to the Tea Party. Maybe next time they'll think twice about holding my country hostage.
You personify Stockholm Syndrome.
May you rot in Hell for your willful stupidity, your willful ignorance and your craven acquiescence to corrupt and increasingly tyrannical authority.
I am tired of trying to be patient and civil with the enablers of Big Brother evil such as yourself. If you can't see that bigger, more powerful and more intrusive government is the REAL problem by now, and certainly NOT the answer to the manifold problems of its own creation, then you are either too stupid or too insane to EVER see reality for what it is, or to justify your pathetic existence on this earth.
This was a total win, a TKO, for TPTB. We got what we deserve.
It is incredible to see that the fate of the US economy depends on the attitude of an extreme-right organisation, the Tea Party. If Obama had balls, he should send the leaders of this gang to jail, like the Greeks did with the Golden Dawn....
Good luck pussy. Obuttfuck ain't dumb. There would be a civil war over night. The problem is these "tea party folks" come from the only states that produce anything. Your pilot light price would increase 10x overnight without them. Plus they can shoot.
What, the TSA and your mamma going to come after them??
Nanny Sam and the DHS know they are out gunned and outnumbered. They will need more than the billion rounds they have on hand for just Texas.
Real world fact of niggercare. Employer with 20 employees.
Current insurance premium w/BCBS: $185 per month.
After niggercare: $485 per month.
Increase of 162%
Enjoy your free health care fuckers, I hope you die quick. Hell is coming to small business and the free shit army will perish with the productive host. Good riddance to you fucking parasites that call disability a job.
"Niggercare?"
With a mouth like that you must be awesome at Call of Duty.
Unfortunately the TEA party began with great intentions and ended up getting compromised by NeoCon fatasses afraid of the direction the wind was blowing. So here we are still, languishing in the two party dungeon, hating absolutely every draconian measure that comes out of Mordor. It's a fucking bag of cocks to deal with, because you can only not cooperate to a certain extent and still survive within the framework of the society. Goddammit. Again, go long on guillotines, because I think one day we'll be needing them.
Apparently nobody here understands the fucking strategy.
It was goddamn brilliant.
C'mon man, don't be stupid.
The GOP can now walk up to the can that was kicked into February & say "look what we did." "We went against every ideal we have, we so far alienated ourselves from our constituents that it's borderline insane. We did that, because we could not stand to see America fail. Now, it is only fair that you, the democrats, to sacrifice your ideals & your integrity to do what's right for America."
Entitlement reform is a shoe-in now. Don't know why nobody else sees that. Here comes the grand bargain & chained CPI.
The Senate deal is a dirty piece of evil that hands the president dictatorial powers regarding the Constitutional power to 'borrow money on the credit of the United States'. The Senate 'deal' means that from now on, the government's power to borrow money (and thus obligate Americans to pay it back) is now in the hands of the president (dictator), as it requires a 2/3 vote by Congress to override the president whenever he wants to 'up' his credit limit (debt ceiling). So if the president wants to spend money for anything - was, spying on Americans, etc. - he will have very little restraint. Many Democrats probably think this is great as Obama is president and Republicans control the House. Perhaps they will regret it when this is no longer true.
In the mean time, it is time a to start a new political party - the Public Debt Repudiation Party - with
the platform to refuse to pay holders of Treasury bonds. Anyone who voluntarily loans his money to the government does not deserve to get paid back. If Congress won't stop the President from inflicting debt on the people, then the people need a new party that just says NO to paying it back.
