There is a common theme playing out from both sides and all of the media. Bill O'Reilly made a reference today that really ticked me off. The following is my response to him on twitter:
The TEA party is NOT a far-right fringe movement. We are concerned citizens from all political backgrounds who have converged to the CENTER. If wanting our government to be fiscally responsible and wanting our government to stay out of our personal lives is radical then so be it.
Considering our government has evidently been growing astronomically and building a nanny state, we are going against the status quo. I make no apologies for wanting to stop this madness we face and ensuring a free lifestyle for future American generations.

DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz Says There Is Only One Takeaway From Tonight’s Debate: The GOP Field’s Unanimous Allegiance to Extreme Tea Party Doctrine
Here is the DNC statement after tonight’s GOP Debate in Iowa:
Washington, DC—DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz issued the following statement after tonight’s Fox News Republican Presidential Debate in Ames, Iowa, where the Republican candidates all showed their unbridled allegiance to the Tea Party and their extreme ideas:
“Tonight we learned without a doubt that these Republican candidates represent the single most extreme GOP Presidential field in the history of Presidential politics. It wasn’t enough for those Republicans who aspire to be President to simply pander to the Tea Party, tonight they raised their hands and pledged allegiance to the Tea Party and swore an oath to stand by their extreme agenda without yielding.
“Every candidate raised their hand tonight and pledged to not require millionaires, billionaires or the special interests to pay an additional dime to address our nation’s problems – this in a debate where they didn’t mention the middle class one time and continued to stand by plans like Cut, Cap and Balance, which would end Medicare as we know it.
“If Americans were looking for a debate where the Republican Presidential candidates’ true colors shone through – they got it tonight. Slashing Medicare, privatizing Social Security, placing additional burdens on the middle class, all while protecting corporate CEO’s and Big Oil, might be the agenda of the Tea Party, but it’s not the direction that the vast majority of Americans want to see the country go.”
BY THE WAY DEBBIE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO SPEAK THE TRUTH!
The democrats have already GUTTED MEDICARE when they passed the 2,700 page Obama Healthcare bill that NONE OF THEM READ! The democrats support Ethanol subsidies and Green subsidies which get far more federal funds than the oil industry. They protect corporations and CEO's TOO! The democrats claim to care about the poor, sick and needy. Really? Well haven't the people in the low-income communities across America been voting in democrats? Have ANY of those neighborhoods improved? NO. But the people in these communities keep voting these CON-ARTIST into political office and keep getting shafted! How long does it need to take for a lesson to be learned?!?!
