The Progressive Plan: We Lost; Therefore, Attack Tea Party Conservatives

63

The Tea Party has been under fire since our humble beginnings (and I say "our" because I am a Tea Party Conservative). Quite recently, terms like "terrorists" and "racists" have been frivolously thrown at the Tea Party in order to attack the group. Why? Because the progressives have lost.

This new debt deal cuts our spending $1 trillion over the next 10 years which, according to our budget plan, is wimpy, but its a start. The deal also includes a vote on the Tea Party backed Balanced Budget Amendment. No tax hikes, a start of major spending cuts, and a vote on the BBA? That's a WIN for the Tea Party Americans and Conservatives who have fought so hard for a bill like this. This bill is just a start, but a big step toward the RIGHT direction.

But that's not the main message of this article. The main message is to draw attention to the ludicrous and intentional attacks on the Tea Party by progressives. It's clear progressives and liberals did not win with this deal; even Obama said he didn't get what he wanted. You can argue that both sides lost, but when you look at it, the Tea Party gets placed in the WIN column.

So overall, the Tea Party Conservatives/Republican Party wins and the progressive/liberal/Democratic party loses. But it doesn't stop there.

While the House was voting on this deal the Progressive Black Caucus, including Rep. Maxine Waters and Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, threw fierce attacks at the Tea Party claiming they want to "dismantle America" which couldn't be farther from the truth. Then again, look at the organization that's making the claim. And don't forget VICE PRESIDENT Biden called Tea Partiers "terrorists" and made the claim that the Tea Party is holding the American economy hostage. Never in my lifetime did I think I would see the day when the second in command of this country, the Vice President of the United States of America, call fellow American citizens "terrorists." It's wrong and absolutely ridiculous. Even the White House denounced his claim. What a shame, our VP.

The relentless attacks on the Tea Party will not be stopping anytime soon. We must debunk these crazy, inaccurate, and completely wrong claims in order to let the truth prevail.

This is a coordinated attack. Never think otherwise. This is right out of the socialist manifesto...demonize the enemy, attack him mercilessly and hope something sticks. Leftwingers like to point out that the Tea Party is losing power all over this country. They cite poll after poll. Yet, and yet...they continue their attacks on this "weakened enemy" that is so very insignificant. The truth is that the Democrats/leftwingers/socialists fear the Tea Party. They hate all they represent, less government and less spending. Might as well get used to these attacks. It will get worse for the next 15 months.

I thought their communist leader Obama gave them a strict order after the Gifford incident to be have a softer and nicer tone? How come we are to blame for violence yet we are never part of that hateful rhetoric they engage in daily?
