Coffee Potty Party's Mission Statement:

Quote
We want the political process broken down into three steps:
1) open and respectful dialogue
2) thoughtful and informed deliberation
3) competent and decisive execution.
The process is so broken, we can’t get past step 1 right now. We demand cooperation, productivity and accountability in government in the same way we would demand it of an employee we might hire for a job.
We want local chapters to have the autonomy to figure out their own legislative and electoral priorities. At the national level, we’ll make recommendations for direct action on legislation. But they will only be suggestions. We value and celebrate diverse opinions just as we value and celebrate diverse backgrounds. All that is required to be part of this movement is a sincere commitment to participating in, and protecting the democratic process.

They left out
4) Paper ballots, counted by hand
5) Bushco war criminals frogmarched to The Hague
and, of course,
6) Investigation and prosecution of the BFEE conspirators behind the 9/11 attacks

Yeah, and that Arrogant Asshole in the White House along with the slime balls running the the house and the senate are the main problems. Those three things sound more like planks of the TEA party.  Did the girl that started this just copy off someone's paper?

They were going to call it the Skim Half-Decaf Latte Party, but it didn't sound butch enough.
