What did the "blanking" Tea Baggers ever risk?
   
These true patriots of the Occupy Movement have sacrificed more for the "tree of liberty" than any Tea-bagger could dream of.

Think about it. The corporate backed Tea-baggers strolled around for a day with signs, food, porta-potties, entertainment and charging stations for their Medicare supplied Scooters...all supplied by their corporate backers...and then they would return to their mundane existence.

They showed up with guns, but never fired a shot!

They showed up with anger, but never suffered any consequence!

They showed up for an hour, but never camped in the cold rain!

They showed up with demands, but never had to actually sacrifice their comfort!

These brave folks on Wall St and all over the country are risking arrest. They are braving the elements. They are risking their livelihood. They are risking their good names and reputation. They are risking their jobs.

In the Navy we have a saying; "this is a man I want with me in battle"! Well, let me tell you, if the choice is between the phony Tea-baggers, or these folks I see at the current protests...there is no choice!

These OWS protestors are have more in common with our Founding Fathers than any of those cheap imitation Tea-Baggers...no matter how many 3-corner hats they put on their heads.

The Tea Party people have something called a job, that means they can't go out and stay in the streets for weeks at a time.
The clOWnS have nothing in common with our founding fathers, nothing!

1. How many teabaggers ended up getting arrested during their "protests" and rallies?
   
Edited on Tue Oct-11-11 10:12 AM by Proud Liberal Dem
:shrug: For some reason, I don't remember seeing many- the response to them certainly wasn't typical of a supposed dictatorship. :eyes:

That's because decent civilized people don't act like fools and shit on cop cars and stuff like that.

8. But they sacrificed nothing
   
NOTHING!!!

They wanted to compare themselves to the founders of this country who risked hanging in a public square. They pissed and moaned if there weren't enough porta-potties.

Like I said; "the Tea-baggers can wear all the tri-corner hats they want...but they shrink in comparison to these Wall St protesters when it comes to being willing to sacrifice for your beliefs.

Tea-baggers "talk" about "standing by your principles"

OWS folks actually "do" stand by their principles.

That takes courage...and that is something the Tea-baggers never had.

DISCLAIMER: If there are mispelling in this post it's because I don't have my "effing" glasses with me.

And just what have you sacrificed? You sit there at your computer in comfort, how about hitting the streets with your fellow moonbats and show us how it's done.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Well they wouldn't be risking arrest if they knew how to behave like we do, and seriously, these people don't have jobs, of course they could afford to protest.

I love this.  They take negatives about these clOWnS and try to spin them into positives:

1). A bunch of filthy people camping out in the middle of the city used to be called vagrancy.  Now it's sacrifice.
2). The fact that tea partiers are respectful of law enforcement and the law in general somehow diminishes them as a movement when compared to disrespectful thugs who try to get arrested.

I'd like to know how many of the protesters and the demographics of same who are actually "roughing it" by camping in the park, as opposed to those who just take a train in from the 'burbs for the day or who are staying in local hotels. Somehow, I doubt very many of them are "braving the elements" or "risking their livelihood". Most of the overnighters and agitators are college students on hiatus or slackers with time on their hands.

When you're that age without much invested in life yet you don't mind a little camping out and threat of arrest in order to get your jollies. "Sacrificing", my ass.

Not only are many of the OWmeS getting paid by leftist and democrat organizations they are hoping to hit a big score by forgiving their student loan, home loan, and any credit card debt. As said above, they have no job that they are going to lose by camping out in a filthy park with a bunch of disease ridden vagrants.

Yeah, having taken a good look at the losers and misfits in these hippie crowds, I have to agree.

As much as I'd hate to be in a battle, if it's unavoidable I hope it's against a gaggle of wimps like these douchebaggers.

Surely he didn't mean he'd want to be on the same side with them.

I like the disclaimer. Unlike the DUmmie I'll be honest because I never claim to be a super genius. If I spell a word incorrectly it's because I (1) simply made a mistake or (2) don't know the proper spelling and was too lazy to look it up. Both happens sometimes with me.

If I don't have my glasses it doesn't cause me to misspell words. It causes my typing to look like this: I hsvw lpst my gkasses abd can't typr worth a da,n witgouy thwm.

Oh and I agree with GOBUCKS. A smart man would want the hippies in battle with him. On the opposing side.

First of all, losers, some of you are getting paid more per hour than the working people you want to take from. And your misery is your own fault, mainly because you don't want to take responsibility for yourselves. If you did you wouldn't be asking daddy government to solve all your problems for you. No one has a clue what the hell it is you want. Green jobs? Yeah it's worked so well before. Jobs? Money for NOT working? Free college education? Free health insurance? Stop all wars? You want to steal from the rich? I've never heard any explanation that explains your "right" to their money. CEO's don't start out that way. They start out at the bottom of the ladder, maybe a middle manager and work their way up. If you work and get paid for a job how can you say they're stealing from you? If you think you're worth more ask for a raise, talk to your boss about what you can do to advance yourself, get a new job, take a night class related to your field.

You say you're suffering more for your cause, that you have more in common with the founders. The founders didn't want socialism. Neither does the Tea Party. The founders wanted a small government. So does the Tea Party. The founders didn't want to limit free speech whether that came from and individual or a company. More than anything I'd love to have one of you (if any of you have the balls) come over here and explain where in the constitution it talks about the right to take from one person and give to another?

So what exactly are you suffering? Well you've turned your occupation sites into pig sties. Some of you haven't bathed since you got there. It's got to stink. You have people delivering you food. You can buy drugs. It also seems to be a fertile ground for "free love". And I bet since this is funded by George Soros, Move On and other NON grassroots organizations (show me a Tea Party Rally where over half the participants are carrying signs exactly the same obviously printed by one of your "sponsors") they could have rented port-a potties for you. Maybe your beef should be with them, huh? You could, each of you, be responsible for your own trash. For a bunch of environmentalists you sure are working hard to hurt mother earth. And no one is forcing you to be there. Your choice. Just like the Tea Party people.

You know, I bet if someone gave each and every one of you the monthly income you think you deserve there wouldn't be another peep out of you about the "poor" and disadvantaged. You want to see poverty? Go to Somalia or Yemen or Ghana. Even people with jobs don't live as well as families here who have been on welfare for generations. You want fair? They're doing worse than you are. To them you are the rich. Doesn't that mean you should give them at least half of what you get? That's only fair. The money you're wasting on your little sit in would feed 3 or 4 villages for a year. But no, you're so selfish you'd rather let them starve.

Can somebody tell me how these OWS ****s have sacrificed more then any veteran that's in the tea party? I don't see these clown running up a beach facing machine  gun fire nor do I see these clown crossing live mine fields or flying deep into enemy airspace on a mission that might not make it back. Far better men and women have given more for this country then any of the losers at the OWS rallies. Sorry but sitting on your asses and acting like children to do make you a hero and better then those that are standing up for the law's and the Constitution of this country. You candy asses what people to give you everything. That's not being patriotic that's called panhandling .

Exactly right. Just like the Viet Nam demonstrations in the 60s. For the vast majority, these mob scenes are nothing more than drug markets where you can buy, sell, and use with little risk of arrest.

ive had this thought in my head for a couple days

is it possible that when the tea party got together in public it was a "Rally" and not a "Protest"
i think there is a major difference, unless my idea of a protest is extremely skewed by the stereotypically photo's of a protest (pretty much what we have now at the OWS events)

so was the tea party actually protesting or rallying???


as far as risk goes, do you really have to RISK something to protest?

this would be obvious to us but for the DUmmy who wants to know what the TP risks thinks risk is mandatory for a protest.

These true patriots of the Occupy Movement have sacrificed more for the "tree of liberty" than any Tea-bagger could dream of.

Let's see - 22 years of my youth, knees, feet, left shoulder, hearing, and many other things while I was writing a check to your sorry ass for the amount of "up to and including my life".

When one of your whiny faggot, cop car shitting, protester "true patriots" can tell me what a round from an AK sounds like as it whizzes past your nose (so close you can feel the ****ing heat from it and the pressure wave makes your ****ing eyes water) fired at you in anger while defending your right to be as big a slack ass as you can be, I might be more inclined to listen.  Until then, **** you and the human vermin you associate yourself with.

I've risked more than you will ever comprehend, DUmbass.
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

When the TP stood with their hands over their hearts and recited the Pledge of Allegiance they were branded as Nazis.

What more were they supposed to have accomplished?
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."
