They're mad because the Tea Party is a bunch of RINOs who kowtow to left-wingers like Boehner and Ryan.

I just want to say that I always read the title of this thread as "it was the best of times, it was the blurst of times" even though it's not really that close to that line. I think the tea party thing is just because they've gone even further right

If I weren't moving soon I'd gladly brand myself as an EAGLE RUSHMORETARIAN and knock off Darrell Issa if I thought it could work. I forget if vacancies are filled by the governor or special election in California. If the former, I'd just resign day 1.

And now, a slice of life (it's MSNBC, talking about politics or something) -- watch what you say around Melissa Harris Perry:quote:“I just want to pause on one thing, because I don’t disagree with you that I actually think Mr Ryan is a great choice for this role,” she said. “But I want us to be super careful when we use the language ‘hard worker.’ Because I actually keep an image of folks working in cotton fields on my office wall, because it is a reminder about what hard work looks like.” Check your work privilege, motherfucker  As a matter of fact, don't even describe people in any way at all because SLAVERY.Melissa Harris Perry is the liberal that Bill Maher mocks.

ComradeCosmobot posted:My understanding is that they not only want to get the candidates on record about racial profiling, but also things like welfare, mandatory minimum sentencing, and pretty much every racially-associated political topic. So was the town hall not going to be televised? Also, I thought BLM generally wasn't thrilled with discussions regarding the economic issues related to black men and women being killed by police.

Radish posted:Carson is advocating college professors have to have their lectures approved by a government committee if students complain about Christian persecution so welp. funny thing is i actually had the stereotypical leftist teacher the conservatives fear and unfortunate, he sucked and wasn't fun at all. He was my government teacher in a college and he was kinda of a dickhead and he basically just used https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_you_are_lynching_Negroes for every argument ever for any foreign policy discussions, like ISIS, syria, iraq, iran, russia, north korea, etc. thing is i was/am a history major+ something awful+internet in general so i knew all of this already so it wasn't the eye opening experience i am sure he thought it was. what sucked is thats all he would do. He didnt teach poo poo, he just ranted until the clock ran out. he said one of his greatest pleasures was giving the bird to Bush as he drove past in the campaign bus. and whats worse is i didn't even disagree with his politics. hell i liked alot of it. he was just a terrible, terrible teacher and he was to much of an rear end in a top hat and he never took questions or had arguments with the class. He just came off as a petty rear end in a top hat who browbeat students into agreeing with him. He never did do the religion angle though. But again, other then him, all my other teacher were just normal teachers. alot of them are left leaning sure. but nothing compared to what carson thinks.
