The Onion: Tea Party Quiet ..Too Quiet

In this fake news report from satirical comedy network The Onion, the Tea Party takes some jabs from a fictional analyst. Do you think there is any truth to this sketch? Can conservative have a sense of humor, even about themselves?

    TEA Party useless – too useless. Even with all the TEA Party-backed candidates that got elected, we still got the NDAA from our Congress. Explain that one …

    • Ttownse3

      The explanation is simple.  First of all, the dominant two parties in this nation have been permitted by the citizens and the media over the years to work together to push out and ignore all other potential non-republican and non-democrat candidates and obtain total control and dictate the candidates and conditions of the electoral process.  In so doing, they have jointly manipulated these processes, allowing third and subsequent party candidates only as a show and tools to divide party oppositions when needed and divide votes to help bring in specific candidates that both parties have wanted all along.  Illegal election tactics, the blocking of voter ID use that would have helped maintain some semblance of honesty at the polls, efforts to prevent votes being available and/or counted from deployed military and the tricks and tactics used by the Republican and Democrat parties and the government run/Soros run media to make sure Romney would be the Republican nominee and the election fraud used to keep Reid in office are all evidence of just how rigged elections have become.  Recent efforts to push obama into a party situation to delay or avoid elections all together and democrat admissions that fraud is acceptable to them, combined with republican silence and even caving (called cooperation or joint party negotiations) have only served to further drive home this point, especially when matched with the arrogance and consistancy of obama’s displayed contempt of court (i.e., in the Gulf oil drilling rulings and now in his response to the SCOTUS ruling on Obamacare deciding it was a tax while obama says it is not and the Arizona Immigration law where the SCOTUS approved a major part of the law only to have obama retaliate by cutting off agreements with Homeland Security in such a way as to effectively void this approved law in contempt of the SCOTUS ruling.  And yet, no one will do anything about his arrogance, contempt, violation of law and the U.S. Constitution and even what should likely be correctly described as treason.  This makes all those involved similarly criminal and even treasonous by extention of their willing aid, enabling, and even involvement directly and indirectly with the crimes at large and the prevalent obvious willingness to overlook and ignore these crimes and refuse to even uphold the oaths given to oppose this criminality and to take prompt action to stop it.  After all, what criminal is willing to take lawful required actions against a major culprit when they are sworn to do so and are in a position to be similarly held cupible for many, if not all, of these same crimes? 

      The resutl?  The crimes continue unabated and through the lack of repercussions these crimes escalate with the arrogance and self-importance of the criminals and the amount that the palms are greased for the leading offenders by criminal and foreign powers with other than the well-being of this republic and/or its actual citizens in mind.  Under such conditions and considering that the only option at this time to the illegal alien illigitimate incompetent criminal-in-chieff in the White House is an obama near look-alike politically; Romney, who was selected and put in the position of opposition to obama by both of the main parties and the media or perhaps Hillary Clinton (one half of the previous criminal pair of the Bill Clinton / Hillary mock investigations ran by Clinton’s appointee Janet Reno who was one of several who was instrumental in the heavy miscarriage of justice in the Clinton hearings), it is evident that the only ones who will ever actually make a difference for the better are the actual U.S. citizens and only if fully backed by patriotic veterans and the majority of the U.S. Military (many of which are now apparently conducting MP maneuvers in U.S. city streets while the federal government is preparing for and instigating conditions to promote martial law). 

      Only lawful, thought out, reasone responses to this condition can ever prevail, if kept within the authority of the U.S. Constitution.

         When the government no longer serves the people, it is the right… no… It is the duty of the people to replace the government.  This is the reason the second amendment was ratified.

        • ErnieDavidson

          I hear you Tony and I agree.

      • ErnieDavidson

         Wow – that’s a mouth full! I completely agree that Obama is a criminal through and through but the TEA Party candidates ARE ‘the people’ supposedly. So then why did the TEA Party-backed candidates that got elected vote with the Grand Old Party in favor of the NDAA?

  • TonysTake

    The most sincere and active Tea Party members have joined militias, armed themselves and are prepared to re-take our country at any cost. They have not forgotten their oath to defend our Constitution against all enemies, both foreign and domestic.  The rest have become actively involved, casting their lot in the Republican party. The county and state central committees are theirs for the taking.  All they have to do is to show-up. Fewer than half of the Republican party precinct seats are filled. 

    Only a fool would think the Tea party has gone away.  They have traded their protest signs for guns, ammo and a seat at the table of the National Republican party.  While the RINOs have been sleeping, the Tea Party has taken complete control of seven states, with more to come.  By the sword or by the vote, the Tea Party can and will take our country back for Constitutional Conservatives.

    Sounds like “the news”, watch the birdie while Liberty vanishes. Why demonstrate? The Elected Elites of Der Party could care less. (Both Parties included)
    Obamacare was NOT ruled constitutional by “The Supreme Court”, it was 1 man, John Roberts, a Republican.
    The Constitution be damned by these Elite UN-NWO traitors, Enemies Foreign and Domestic.

    “When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The
    strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear
    arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in
    government.”Thomas Jefferson
