Should the left start a Patriot Party to combat the Tea Party....   Updated at 12:51 AM
   
We have ceded, for what ever reason, all the patriotic symbolism to the crazy assed right.

It's almost if the left is frightened by overt patriotism.

I know that isn't the case, but it appears as if "we" do openly disdain the very idea of patriotism.

The thing is we are the true patriots, we are the ones who want to expand freedom, we are the ones who are always trying expand voting...

And yet, and yet...

We are somehow branded as against America.

The part of America that we don't like is the dream scape that the white people's party disguised as the Tea Party have created.

We are the true Americans.

It's time we take back the country from the people who want to limit access to government, limit voting and limit opportunity.

We are for the people, of the people and by the people...

It's time we started acting like it...

Well, that's my grumpy old liberal rant for the year...

Have at it!

This poor DUmmy got confused, he is confusing freebies with freedom.
Every policy that the left wants takes away from freedom, not an expansion of freedom.

It's right there in our founding documents: increase taxes! Big government! Social welfare! Take from those who work!

From each according to his ability to each according to his need!

Oh wait...

I think it would be great.  Just think of the visuals.  During the first big rally, people in Che shirts, Hammer and Sickle flags, Anarchists in black masks.  It is just too good to pass up. 

Organize NOW!!!!   America needs a DU organized Patriot Party.

10. By redefining what the flag really stands for.... 
 Freedom to object, freedom to speak-out, freedom to have contrary opinions, freedom to participate...

Except when it contradicts you, right?  That needs to be squelched.  How many times have you DUmmies screamed "Hey Teabaggers!  Hey Fux!  STFU!"

These 60's rejects didn't get the world they hoped they could create, and now that they're staring the Grim Reeper in the face in the next 20 years, still haven't figured out that the world viewed them as a passing fancy, but then moved on.

There we go again, thinking along the same lines, sir.

We're in the waning of the Age of Aquarius, the death throes of the hippies.

And it's a great lot of fun to watch.

How can you claim to hold allegiance to a thing you want to redefine?

I am a socialist patriot...so long as socialism is redefined to mean de-centralized government to optimize individual self-sufficiency.

Sure, and the Congressional Black Caucus should change its name to "Massa know best," and NOW should start demanding people hire more strippers to help women's employment stats.

Coffee Party
AnTEA Party
TeaBusters
The American Dream Movement

There may actually be other anti TEA party movements out there that I have forgotten about. They all fail, because they all lack an organic component. Isn't it funny - the left is out-rallied by the TEA party, and they don't know what to do about it.  :-)

88. Marxist solutions are discussed over bongs and wine bottles
 not serious public policy debates. There are Marxist regimes elsewhere in the world...take your '30s radicalism there if you're a real "Trotskyist"

49. The only radical LW group around here is a bunch of dumb college-age authoritarian Trotskyites.
 Unfortunately. A bunch of angsty middle-class fools more concerned about giving The Man the middle finger rather than engage in real radical activism.
 A direct insult to White Wolf!

A "Worker's Paradise"


One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich - Alexander Solzhenitsyn

It is winter at a Soviet labor camp called “HQ,” in Siberia. A worker sounds the wake-up call for the inmates by pounding a hammer on a rail outside, but it is so cold that he soon gives up.

Ivan Denisovich Shukhov, an inmate at the camp, usually wakes up quickly at the wake-up call, but today he is aware of severe aches all over his body and a high fever. He listens to the sounds of other zeks, or camp inmates, trudging off to work. He hears signs that his own team, Gang 104, is preparing for labor as well. Shukhov recalls that this will be the day when it is decided whether Gang 104 will stay in HQ or be sent to the freezing, barren plains to work on a building project. Shukhov reflects that in such cold, with no place to get warm even for a moment, the only hope for survival is to dig feverishly and never stop.

They tried countering it with their "Coffee Party," but it has crashed and burned everywhere they tried to do it.
"The thing is we are the true patriots, we are the ones who want to expand freedom, we are the ones who are always trying expand voting...

And yet, and yet...

Well, there is all the times you have referred to America as a Nazi/ Fascist nation, portrayed our troops overseas as evil and sadistic mercenaries who all deserve to die, portrayed Americans as a whole as fat, stupid rednecks, burned American flags in public, and generally done all you can to express your hatred of this country. That seems more than a little anti- American to me.

DUmmies see everything through the filter of their own dismal politics. They don't--and won't--get that the Tea Party transcends politics. It is about normal people taking their country back. DUmmies don't get it. The MSM doesn't get it. Most politicians still don't get it.
