Clinton and Kerry target Tea Party: You’re either crazy or stupid

Of course we are. Crazy like a fox … or is that Fox? Over the weekend the Democrats showed one more time, well actually twice, why they will lose in November, how out of touch with the electorate they are, and why the old style politics just won’t work this year, and hopefully never again. Question. Is it really smart to whack the very people who work hard day after day to keep these professional politicians living in the style to which they have become accustomed?

I think I know the answer to that question and my guess is if they keep up these attacks they will soon learn how tough it is to make it in the private sector. First up Bill Clinton takes his whack, Sunday, at the “Wrestling Lady” and the “Witch craft Lady” at a rally in Maine. BTW, the wrestling lady is in a dead heat with Mr. Vietnam.

Then there’s Senator John ” Pass the Grey Poupon” Kerry, calling the average voter ignorant of the facts. We’re just not paying attention, don’t ya know.

Yes we are paying attention, which is why the Democrats are on the road to an Armageddon of their own making. As Dr Zero put it so well over the weekend at Hot Air:

The Tea Party is a large and growing movement that rejects the premise that a morally and intellectually superior government should be given endlessly expanding power over every aspect of our lives.  We reject a media-approved narrative that holds the State blameless for its misdeeds, or gives it unlimited credit for its good intentions.  We are competent and compassionate enough to manage our own lives, and address our problems through willing cooperation with our neighbors.

We’re not lost in incoherent anger because we misunderstand a reality only Democrat Party leaders can see clearly.  On the contrary, we realize that an insane level of willing blindness is necessary to ignore the evidence of their abject failure.  You’ve got to be pretty stupid to think Barack Obama’s only problem is that he’s not superhuman enough to fix the “mess George Bush left him” two years ago.  To accept this critique, you would have to believe Americans are so weak that Bush could permanently destroy us in eight years, and Bill Clinton’s last years in office were some kind of golden age.  You would have to believe the effort of defeating Saddam Hussein mortally wounded us.

We don’t blame ourselves for the nation’s problems, Senator Kerry.  We blame you.

Indeed!

    And Mr Kerry appears to be ignorant of why he lost his presidential bid. Perhaps he's the one who should pay attention to the people.

    Democrats know they are in trouble, and are doing everything they can do to stanch the bleeding.  Pulling out Clinton makes some sense, but Kerry?  Mr. "I don't need to pay my taxes on my luxury yacht" Kerry?  Why not find Marie Antoinette while your are at it?!

     

    Incumbent Democrats and Republicans have become so entrenched and deaf to the voters, that they just can't understand where the anger is coming from.  This is precisely the reason they need to be purged (or maybe "flushed" is better) out of office.

     

    Maybe these elitists should drop the childish ad hominem attacks and specifically point out what ideas the Tea Party has that they disagree with, and tell us precisely why.

     

    Lotsa luck.

    Facts and truths shall never change giving the same each time told. while falsehoods and lies change with the wind in order to appear as a truth or fact. Look to where the wind is blowing and you will find a lib spouting out a bunch of lies, mind your ears as the shrill sound you hear is the lib trying to make a point; move out of the way as they are falling fast like a forest being felled by a woodsman.

    We the People are alert, well armed with facts, speaking methodically the truths; calm winds are with us, our words are music to our ears and we can always be seen stand straight and tall with a flag whipping in the liberal winds.

    Poor dear Kerry and Clinton, they just do not get it, perhaps they need some medication to control their liberal mental disorder.

    Note to Mr. Clinton and Mr. Kerry – Wake up !!  The American people are becoming MORE educated everyday as to how politics really works.  If they are pulling you big names out now, it is an indication of BIG trouble.  When I see John McCain calling "Remain calm, all is well" I will know the American people have started to make an impression on the elected elite.

    I admit to having trusted my elected officials and the media watchdogs.  I apologize. 

    And I apologize for not taking the responsibility to press my elected officials to do the right thing. 

    And now, I take responsibility for fixing it. 

    And I am encouraged that I am not alone in this.

    {Hard to follow Weregettinghosed and PatRiot}

    True, we have awakened and are learning more each day.  Learning politics while busting bum at our daily bread-winning.  I feel like I have taken on a second job, so has every member of my family, friends, business associates.  The winds of true change are raging and, as WeregettingHosed put it, we are standing strong but also with the U.S. Constitution in hand!

    John Kerry is someone we can all relate to, he was born to a lower middle class family. He’s not Irish but he is Catholic or he is now. He worked his way through college and did so well at local community college that he was given a full scholarship to Yale then went on to Harvard for his post graduate work. At that time he was called to duty, knowing that his country needed him. Without hesitation he enlisted into the Navy as a lowly boatswain mate, almost immediately he was found to possess astonishing leadership skills along with an exceptional natural ability to dissect the different strategies of our enemies, which were the Chinese and the North Vietnamese at the time. So the U.S. Navy recognizing John Kerry’s extraordinary talents decided to cut through bureaucratic red tape and they bumped him up to lieutenant from a seaman. Shortly after John Kerry was given his commission he intercepted important encrypted transmissions between the Chinese and the North Vietnamese, he broke the code and was able to thwart their plans to destroy about sixty five percent of our fleet. Needless to say, without John Kerry we probably wouldn’t have won that war. Anyone that has besmirched his reputation is un-American and should be considered to be an enormous threat to our country.

    VictimsRevenge that's a nice piece of fiction, it's full of half truths and some outright falsehoods. A quick check and a fact I came across was that he inherited money from an aunt who was a Forbes. She made sure he was educated at elite private schools and he summered in France on the Forbes estate and on another Forbes estate out on the Cape.  He went to Yale and got his law degree at Boston College. He's an arrogant elitest who has no clue as to how 98% of us live.L

  9. VictimsRevenge on September 28, 2010 at 3:03 pm

    <cite>TomL</cite> "He’s an arrogant elitest who has no clue as to how 98% of us live." This is exactly the point that I was making in my own peculiar way. I do that a lot.



  10. TomL on September 28, 2010 at 3:38 pm

    I had a 50-50 shot to figure you out I was wrong, my apologies, but you made me look up facts, thats a good thing, Thank You

    Where can I get me one of them rich widder women?



  12. Tbone McGraw on September 29, 2010 at 8:33 am

    VR, you had me for a second there! John "Don't you Know Who I am" Kerry aka John F'n Kerry is your typical wealthy liberal. He has the "I want to help the less fortunate, as long as you keep them over there", way over there!" And he wants to help them with other peoples money and take full credit for that help, financed by tax payers.

    The fact that liberalism has been instituted policy for the last 21 months, is a blessing for all of us. No longer, can they hide under the guise, that their here to help us and provide for a better America. The agenda has been seen for what it is; Socialism. And the American majority has rejected it and will exercise that rejection 34 days!

    OMG, now I have to ad VictimsRevenge to my Tim-in-Alabama list! I am so naive.



  14. SeeingRed on September 30, 2010 at 4:07 am

    Gee, sure seems like a 'nuts and sluts', rode-a-dope to me.  Where have I seen this before?



  15. Dimsdale on September 30, 2010 at 10:54 am

    Tim, you will have to move fast: Kerry uses them up and throws them away when a richer one comes along.   Maybe you could scoop his hand me downs!  (I have another term, but this is a family show…..)
