GOP contemplates embracing tea-partiers

Posted: 04/16/09 02:27 PM [ET]

Republicans are contemplating how to involve thousands of anti-tax protesters in rebuilding their fractured party a day after nationwide tax-day tea parties drew widespread attention.

"We should embrace them," House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) told The Hill on Thursday. "These are Americans who believe that their government, at all levels, are going in the wrong direction and they're tired of it."

Boehner was one of many Republican politicians and prominent activists who attended a tea party on Wednesday. In Boehner's case, he joined Chief Deputy Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) for a rally in McCarthy's district in Bakersfield.

"This party has always been based on movements of individuals," McCarthy said. "People are frustrated, and the one thing you see with the tea parties is that they're not being organized by elected officials."

Though President Obama maintains sky-high approval ratings, several Republicans suggested the anger they witnessed may be the beginnings of a re-energized base capable of propelling their party back into contention.

South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, the Republican who has clashed more with the administration than just about any other public official, said he foresees a "genuine voter backlash, and there's probably a lot more to come with that."

Most party leaders and strategists say it is not a matter of whether to involve the so-called tea-partiers, but how best to harness the new anger for political gain. Some go so far as to suggest the protests are signs that the GOP has finally found the vehicle it needs to get back to the majority.

"This is very cathartic for the conservative movement," said veteran party strategist Craig Shirley, who has penned a biography of former President Reagan. "It means the movement is becoming re-Reaganized. It's becoming a populist movement again."

"The Republican base was shrinking and depressed after the past two elections. Having activists organized on the ground and online is something the party should want," added Doug Heye, a GOP strategist. "The challenge now is how to positively channel that energy into electoral gains in the off-year and midterm elections."

"Barack Obama created a populist movement right in front of our eyes," said Katon Dawson, chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party. "Now that populist movement he created has thrown a question mark up."

Said Dawson of the protesters he saw Wednesday: "It is part of the Republican movement. You see some libertarian faces there, and the Republican Party has got to practice the politics of addition, not subtraction."

Still, the question of where the movement goes from here remains up in the air, with few evincing any urge to do anything to stand in protesters' way and with all insisting the events were organized independent of any national coordinating effort.

"We want to help in any way we can, but this is not us doing it," McCarthy said.

But consensus on how to envelop the anti-tax outrage has yet to emerge, and few seem confident of where the movement goes from here. On Thursday, FreedomWorks, the Washington think tank headed by former House Majority Leader Dick Armey (R-Texas), announced a second round of tea parties slated for Washington in early September, but until then the next step remains unclear.

"We'll see," Boehner said when asked the direction in which the tea parties are headed. "But clearly they're responding to a lot of what we've had to say in Washington over the past couple of months."

Though some in the GOP see protesters as distracting from a uniform message for a party struggling to define itself as something other than naysayers, others suggest the intensity of the tea party protests will rob party leaders in Washington of the option of ignoring them.

"The flow of power has shifted. It's moving downward, not upward," Shirley said. "These people are in charge, not [new Republican National Committee Chairman] Michael Steele."

Asked whether Republicans should embrace the protesters, Shirley said simply: "I don't think they have any choice."

"Will they find a place? I think so, but a lot of it will depend on us and our candidates. We're going to have to sell ourselves to them," said Saul Anuzis, the former Michigan Republican Party chairman who attended a tea party in Lansing.

"We may be the default place for them to go, because the alternative, the Democrats, is so bad," Anuzis said. "It's by no means a slam-dunk."

They can broadcast the new form of the party to millions of trailer parks, roadside cafes, granary towns, logging communities, truck stops, and hotel rooms. The people will nod and believe and vote. Look who owns the printing presses. They print/broadcast the distorted truth, just like they print/wire inflated money.

There's only 1 (ONE) way this will all be stopped. OK, 2 (TWO) if you live by faith.

One party down and one to go. After trying to work within my Ron Paul group to make salient changes within the local GOP, I soon realized that the party is simply too deeply infected to save.

Some folks continue on with the effort, but it's wearing them down. We need a populus party, not a corporate cronie party, if we are ever going to get some representation.

Nope, Nevada state Republican convention. We had already swept through the party platform that was constitutionally sound and a return to the Ron Paul vision. We had pushed through the necessary voting adjustments, following all the tedious Roberts Rule of Order.

We were the majority. Ron Paul was on his way to be the nominee for Nevada.

Then the party hacks rushed in and stole the ballot box after the ballots had been cast and made a mockery of the entire process. Held up the process for weeks, balked at legal manouvers on our side and rammed Juan McAmnesty through by deception and fraud.........the true GOP way.

I know what you are saying is truth and afaic those mother f**kers should ALL be hung until DEAD. I'm talkin' "shit their pants - dead".

I suggest we permanently ABOLISH all PARTIES once and for all !

Can I get an Amen ? ! ?

I'm for permanently abolishing the two party fraud. In a land that is supposedly free we should have at least twenty parties that can get on the ballot, instead of just two offering the same crooks and liars who share the same interests.

I think 20 viable parties would be great. Hell we have socialists and communists already, why not put 'em on the ballot and put some sunshine on their ideology rather than pretending to be otherwise? We'd spend a hell of a lot less money if we had 20 parties, than just two corporate cronie parties.

The entire election process is a sham where hidden interests pay the way and the duped public continues to believe they only have two options that are viable. I say BS to that. The only thing stopping us from tearing the whole process apart is that we are conditioned constantly to believe it is the only way. This sham can't be fixed from within, the fixing has to come from the people.

I'm happy to see the GOP flopping around like a fish out of water. Next up, Dem guppies meet up with the disgruntled base.......I give it less than six months before we start to see the Dems disintegrate too. It has already begun.

With millions of voters, we need some distinctions amongst candidates prior to duking it out.

Without corporate cronies putting up the funding, those running for election would actually NEED the people to roll up their sleeves and contribute some funds. The people need to know that the person they are backing will represent THEM and their perspective, that's where parties actually help rather than hinder the process. Why should libertarians or constitutionalists be considered not viable? That's just insanity.

"We should embrace them," House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) told The Hill on Thursday. "These are Americans who believe that their government, at all levels, are going in the wrong direction and they're tired of it.

Americans are sick and tired of seeing the rich taxed on their capital gains and business profits when there are millions of ordinary, minimum wage earners to carry the tax load for the country.

And, why should the rich have to provide health and unemployment insurance for workers who are no longer of any use to their employers?

And, why should rich American companies be hindered by immigration laws that force them to pay first world wages to spoiled Americans and to compete with foreign competition that can use slave labor to build their products?

Americans are sick of it I tell you! This is a populist, grassroots uprising and if Obama tries to reverse course on Bush's tax cuts for the rich I'm afraid the country will explode!", Boehner said..... _________________________________

Although I have doubts about "Obama's sky-high approval ratings" (according to Ed Steele Obama's true ratings are lower than Bush's at this point in his first term) I do believe that the GOP is trying to manufacture and channel a tidal wave of anger to cover their "Protect BushCo's 'favor the rich' agenda at all costs" and they honestly believe that Americans are that fucking stupid and won't see the soft, carefully manicured hand writing the secret directives from The Golden Castle On the Hill.

And, the puppeteers know very well that Obama is under orders to follow the same playbook as BushCo and he will completely ignore the voices of dissent and the whole world if necessary to follow the directives from the shadow govt.

If the past teaches anything it's that this is a necessary exercise to keep us occupied in our playpens and to create the illusion of political involvement and relevance while preparing for the next swing back to the other "truth" where "Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia!".

Although no one responded when I mentioned this previously, it so seriously pissed me off that I'll write it again:

Back when Sen. Dick Lugar was toying with the idea of running for Emperor his exploratory platform was "abolish the IRS and the income tax". After he withdrew he returned to the senate and never breathed another word about this issue that was "so crucial to America's survival."

And, when Bush was kissing every baby, every ass and every baby's ass he could while running for re-election Denny "Let me show you how to hold that bat you cute little feller-Have you ever seen a grown man naked?" Hastert said that if re-elected Bush and the GOP were going to abolish the IRS and the income tax! He was talking to a reporter in what appeared to be the outer lobby of the House and he would have never said such a thing if he wasn't instructed to plant another "all things for all people" seed to guarantee Bush's re-election.

Of course I know that this issue is just campaign bait and they have no intention of abolishing the tool they use to silence their enemies the way corporations use SLAPP suits. This is evidenced by the fact that they never detail any IRS abuses of Americans or explain that income taxes are used to fund the federal reserve swindle not to build bridges, roads, the military, education, etc.,.

If they were serious about de-funding the federal reserve some insider would actually introduce a bill ("Hoo wants to bell the cat?" "Mee? Kiss MY ASS, Hastert!") and they would have no trouble selling it to the people once the truth is allowed to fall upon the ears of the long suffering masses. But, none may criticize the royal families of banking and finance lest his or her plane falls from the sky or he/she ends up swinging from a rope under a bridge in the old Italian P2 tradition.

There can be no doubt that millions of Americans fall for these GOP theater productions just as in 2000 when they "spontaneously" rioted to force the "abrupt cancellation of a hand recount" in FLA. One GOP loyalist-state level functionary at Liberty Forum even admitted that he was "called up and activated" and that he got on a plane for that very purpose!

It was the first time in America's history that "angry, dispossessed American rioters" flew to the event first class or drove in gas guzzling Humvees secure in the knowledge that the FLA Highway Patrol wouldn't ticket them for speeding once they explained their "mission to the uniformed branch of the Friends Of Bush"! ("Hey, you guys performed a great service for America when you scared those darkies away from the polls. Don't worry, we'll take it from here! And, tell Katherine Harris that it would be an honor to bite the squirrel or a great American heroine!")

"Yeah, Honey, take the kids out of school for a few days because after I'm done rioting we can take them to Sea World and Disney! Of course we can afford it! We'll take The Auto Train and I'll list it as a business deduction! For the next eight years we're gonna reap the profits! REAP REAP REAP!"

Miami's rent-a-riot

But the fact is that the fracas at Miami's recount headquarters was engineered and carried out by Republican Party operatives imported from the heartland, far from South Florida. They might have reminded viewers of Elian's Army -- and might even have taken lessons from the Cubans -- but, by all accounts, the city's strident conservative exile community was very much in the minority. As one observer put it: "There were no guayaberas. This crowd looked tweedy. They were from out of town."

Indeed, all on-the-scene reports coming out now indicate that the Miami protest was carried out by rent-a-rioters flown in by the Republican Party. GOP spokespeople have said that at least 750 Republican activists have been sent into South Florida from around the country to oppose the recount, with the party picking up the tab for a number of them. And last Wednesday, when a gaggle of protesters sprang into action in Miami, those efforts seem to have paid off.

The news outlets delivered it in the same calm, non-news tone one would expect in a story about missing manhole covers.

It should have set the nation on fire. I remember the report very well and my initial shock and then resignation to a state of quiet despair.

And, since you've reminded me I have to say that it's more evidence (to me because I'm so absolutely discouraged-it's as if JFK was assassinated yesterday) that America is past the point of no return.

"Will they find a place? I think so, but a lot of it will depend on us and our candidates. We're going to have to sell ourselves to them," said Saul Anuzis, the former Michigan Republican Party chairman who attended a tea party in Lansing.

Someone may have already asked this question but I have just read the article--if the question is redundant disregard it but isn't that Anuzis guy the one who wanted to exclude Ron Paul from the alleged "debates"?

But, none may criticize the royal families of banking and finance lest his or her plane falls from the sky or he/she ends up swinging from a rope under a bridge in the old Italian P2 tradition.

Or commit suicide by stabbing themselves 27 times in the chest while their arms are behind their backs in handcuffs. Or maybe the way that the cop who knew too much about the Oklahoma City bombing (Terry Yeakey)--they claimed he was a suicide too but if you read what happened to him before he died you know that's a bald-faced like.

"...The official report said "Suicide," and anyone who believes an ANFO bomb destroyed Murrah and the other surrounding buildings will believe this. According to the report, Terry slashed himself eleven times on both forearms before cutting his own throat twice near the jugular vein. Then, apparently seeking even a more private place to die, he crawled another mile of rough terrain away from his car and climbed a fence, before shooting himself in the head with a small caliber revolver. What appeared to be rope burns on his neck, handcuff bruises to his wrists, and muddy grass imbedded in his slash wounds strongly indicated that he had some help in traversing this final distance.

The bullet's entrance wound was in the right temple, above the eye. It went through the policeman's head and exited in the area of the left cheek, near the bottom of the ear lobe line. The trajectory was from a 40-45 degree angle above his head. There were no powder burns. No weapon was ever reported as found at the scene, but independent investigators speculated that had Yeakey shot himself with standard police issue - a Glock 9mm or a .357 Magnum - his head would have been far more destroyed than it apparently was.

One of the last people Officer Yeakey talked to was a friend who knew he was on a mission of private investigation. Terry had told him that he was on his way to El Reno to check out something but first he had to shake the FBI agents who were following him. He was traveling in his private automobile, and witnesses said later that the inside looked like someone had "butchered a hog" on the front seat.

While political assassinations within American borders have become more prevalent in recent years, the ploy to place the blame on someone else - even the victim himself - is nothing new. Neither is the gullibility of the American public...."

You know where to send the money, right?

Oh I concur that our single-party system leads to frauds.

I'm just saying that the way to win is to OBEY the Tea Parties.

I know that and now apparently the R wing of the NGP knows that too.

After what they did to Ron Paul.

I hope patriots and the newly awakened are smart / wise enough not to fall for it.

I was told but afraid it didn't stick.

I hear ya. I hate it when that happens LOL.

I was just curious, it seems as though so many are stuck on a particular person or party. Although perhaps we are witnessing an awakening. I guess we wont know until the next event.

I'm glad for anyone who begins to see a little clearer. I mean really there are so many reasons to question and mistrust the gov right now.

I remember Officer Yeakey's death very well.

He was African American and a family man and he was apparently well thought of in the cop community.

But, when the FEDs (and the SPLC covering for their agent-provocateur in Elohim City Andreas Strassmeier) decided that The militia (GASP!) was taking the rap for that terrible crime any evidence that proved "ill fitting" had to be destroyed.

And, this murder of an African American police officer is the best evidence of the phony crocodile tears that Morris Dees and his all white band of executive SPLC staff cry for the downtrodden minorities in The US.

Like all commie fronts they only use blacks to keep the doors open for their commie foreign agents and themselves. (Dees reportedly has sexual appetites that run to the extreme and unlawful.)

Yeah, I agree. Morris Dees is lower than whale dung in the bottom of the Mariannas Trench and one of those people who wouldn't be missed for months (maybe ever) by anyone other than those who help him con the naive and gullible.

WHO KILLED [Officer] TERRY YEAKEY?

Link to a good article about Terry Yeakey for anyone who might be interested.

Reading it makes me burn inside all over again.

It makes me think thoughts I shouldn't be thinking.

Savage, cruel, un-Christian things.

If some gray alien ever leaves his UFO double parked and I get the chance, I'm swiping it. And, after a few trial and error tests if I succeed in learning how to fire the weapons on board then some murdering sumbitches ain't gonna believe what happens next.

R labeled candidates need to have the Ron Paul Stamp of Approval now for the newly awakened to pull the lever for them, methinks.

Yeah, I know how you feel. Isn't it amazing that they murdered him the way they did and then expect people to believe their bs about suicide?

When I picture the sheer horror and think of the cruelty of those bastards who killed Terry Yeakey I wouldn't second guess Our Creator if Idi Amin was sent as the avenging angel.

His brand of terror was positively sublime and quite possibly appropriate to the circumstances of punishing soulless govt hit men, CIA spooks, DIA and DOJ "interrogators" and the politicians that unleash and insulate these animals.

And, let's not forget The Clintons' and Spike Reno's complicity in that evil business.

And, if ever a case warranted a change of venue in the interest of justice McVeigh's trial did only to be ignored when inconvenient for the govt and their fellow demon conspirators.

And, the case was even assigned to Judge Richard P. Matsch who was properly cured and rid of his judicial independence when his daughter "fell" into an active volcano several years before.

as FDR said "In politics, nothing happens by chance" or words to that effect. How did we ever allow these beasts to rule over us and to completely insulate themselves from the administration of justice?

I wish I knew. I wish I knew why people didn't rise up and hang the members of the Supreme Court who ruled in Julliard v. Greenman that the government had the authority under the Constitution to foist paper money off on us (and of course any honest reading of the Constitution and knowledge of the debates surrounding the adoption of it proves them wrong). I wish I knew why people didn't rise up and hang Woodrow Wilson who facilitated two of the biggest cons ever perpetrated on the American people, the Federal Reserve Bank and the 16th amendment (got 'em both in the same year). I wish I knew why people didn't rebel and hang that communist Federal Deficit Russianvelt for taking up all the gold. And that is just the beginning of the b@$tards I would like to see doing a rope dance.

Every time I think of that day I remember that people tried to exit the lower floors (of Towers One & Two) on the stairs only to be turned around, presumably to keep them inside and to guarantee a shockingly high body count.

And, then I want to flip out on someone.

Open primary would be great if the funding wasn't coming from corporate interests for just two parties, while the rest are treated like red-headed step children. Without addressing that issue, it's more bs. Fair has to do with who is paying to put these crooks in office. The people vote based on paid for dubious campaign ads.

I never understood the need for primaries. The parties should convention and select their candidate on their own dime and then the selected candidate from each party put on the final ballot. That way the taxpayers don't get stuck paying for all those silly primaries most of which have no bearing on the final outcome.

I tend to estimate well, but I'd say we need 9-14 to get things rocking.

We probably have 3-6.
