The Tea Party AKA The Republican Party has NO plans for Jobs, Healthcare, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security. Just gut, cut, and evade taxes for the wealthy. And the rest of you folks-DIE! WASH, RINSE, REPEAT!
No job, no health insurance, no home, no food, tough shit. You either die according to Ron Paul or commit murder and Rick Perry and nem will help you out right quick.
The GOP HAS NO VIABLE PLANS FOR GOVERNING IN AMERICA.

The candidates weren’t the only ones on display
By Steve Benen
The point of presidential candidate debates is to offer the public a chance to scrutinize and evaluate those seeking national office. Occasionally, though, voters get the chance to scrutinize and evaluate those in the audience, which is nearly as interesting.
The candidates seeking the Republican presidential nomination are a pretty scary bunch — remember, one of them stands a reasonably good chance of becoming the leader of the free world in about 17 months — and the two-hour display on CNN last night was a depressing reminder of what’s become of the GOP in the 21st century. That said, maybe it’s just me, but I’m starting to find the audiences for these debates even more disconcerting.
Wolf Blitzer posed a hypothetical scenario to Ron Paul, asking about a young man who makes a good living, but decides to forgo health insurance. Then, tragedy strikes and he needs care. Paul stuck to the libertarian line. “But congressman,” the moderator said, “are you saying that society should just let him die?”
And at that point, some in the audience shouted, “Yeah,” and applauded.
Earlier in the debate, Blitzer asked Rick Perry about his attacks on Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. “I said that, if you are allowing the Federal Reserve to be used for political purposes, that it would be almost treasonous,” Perry said. “I think that is a very clear statement of fact.”
The audience loved this, too.
What’s more, note that in last week’s debate, the mere observation that Perry has signed off on the executions of 234 people in Texas, more than any other governor in modern times, was enough to generate applause from a different GOP audience.
Taken together, over the last five days, we’ve learned that the way to impress Republican voters, at least the ones who show up for events like these, is to support letting the insured die, accusing the Fed of treason for trying to improve the economy, and executing lots of people.
There’s a deep strain of madness running through Republican politics in 2011, and it appears to be getting worse. Those wondering why the GOP presidential field appears weak, insipid, and shallow need look no further than the voters they were choose to pander to.

If they didn’t have President Obama to cut to pieces, I wonder what they would talk about. Certainly, not anything a Loyal American would want for his Country!
I couldn’t believe the Cheers that this group of Tea Partiers gave this brood! Disgusting.
Hi treetop45. It’s 2008 redux, only instea of Palin whipping up the rabid, crazy dogs, you’ve got Perry, Ron Paul, and Co. The Republican Party has long jumped shark, and now the baggers, big money are cranking up the fear, anger, and racial hate amongst the white folks. They don’t want the black man in the White House to get another 4 years.
They”re definitely not into HOPE & CHANGE, Only FEAR, ANGER, RAGE…. This is the 21st century Repunlican Party, folks. We’re going to keep exposing the UGLY and calling them out.
