Why, if the tea party is really full of racist, homophobe, morons WHY ...?

would there be a need for a web site to request people to infiltrate the party and smear them to be such?

The tea party is not about race, religion, or party, it IS ABOUT FREEDOM.

DO YOU ENJOY YOUR FREEDOM?

Update:

Ps- I didnt like Bush either, and as far as where was the party when.....

Is that even relavent- why do you still bash if people are now standing up for our freedoms? Honestly I was younger and did not concern myself with the rediculous in gov, Now that we have seen the deficit go up exponentially- Im paying attention. Will you stand to stop this spending and keep your freedoms?

    Because the vast majority aren't and that upsets liberals. Liberals will lie, cheat and steal to silence any who dare to speak out in favor of responsible government..

    the folk accusing the Tea celebration individuals of being racist do not extremely trust it themselves. They see the Tea celebration as a political chance so that they attempt to discredit it by labeling it racist. that is a tried and authentic tactic of Democrats. They do all of it the time. Its despicable. there continues to be authentic racism in united statesa., in spite of the undeniable fact that it extremely is faded by individuals that make pretend accusations of racism for political motives. what's worse, being a racist, or falsely accusing someone of racism? pretend accusations of racism are the in simple terms suitable preserve of the liberal scoundrel.

    Use as needed:

    * "Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear and retreat."

    * "Make the enemy live up to his/her own book of rules. You can kill them with this. They can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity."

    * "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also, it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage."

    * "The threat is generally more terrifying than the thing itself."

    * "In a fight almost anything goes. It almost reaches the point where you stop to apologize if a chance blow lands above the belt."

    * "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it." (Think Gingrich, Lott and the success of name-calling used by the likes of Bill Clinton, Paul Begala, James Carville, Maxine Waters and others against conservatives and Republicans. Think of how Clinton "enemies" like Paula Jones or Linda Tripp were treated.)

    * "One of the criteria for picking the target is the target's vulnerability ... the other important point in the choosing of a target is that it must be a personification, not something general and abstract." (Trent Lott comes to mind. Meanwhile, a former Klansman by the name of Sen. Robert Byrd got away with saying "ni##er" on Fox News at least three times, and he still maintains his Senate seat and power.)

    * "The enemy properly goaded and guided in his reaction will be your major strength." For instance, Democrats imply conservatives are racists or that Republicans want to kill senior citizens by limiting the growth of the Medicare system, they imply Republicans want to deny kids lunch money without offering real proof. These red-herring tactics work.

    It is all a propoganda campaign to keep the Tea Party from screwing up the Left's plans.

    @CAKE GOOD

    That "bogus website" is legit. The creator even granted an interview regarding his group to the Associated Press.

    (but you still won't give anyone $1M, because yours are the words of a blowhard)

    ADD:

    to quote NOFX regarding the freedom to live your own life:

    "The sad truth is, you'd rather follow the school into the net. 'Cause swimming alone at sea is not the kind of freedom that you actually want."

    Too many people have lost the desire to be free, in exchange for the convenience of someone else telling them how to live.

    Unfortunately, the biggest freedoms they exercise are the freedoms to by uninformed and to make claims without evidence.

    Actual freedom is having the ability to develop as a person. That means far more balance in opportunity and social mobility than is provided by the free market.

    I don't believe their motives. If they were concerned about fiscal responsibility, they would have been protesting from 2001-2009 while Bush expanded the deficit every year. They obviously have other "socially conservative" motives, fundamentalists, anti-gay, supremacists, etc. all coming together for a far right social agenda.

    Freedom is such an alien concept to some people that they can't comprehend speaking out in favor of it. To them all freedom means is smashing windows, burning cop cars and vandalizing and not getting caught.

    The guy behind crashtheteaparty.org is just having some fun with the paranoid tea baggers. They are so suspicious of everyone else it's funny.

    So, if Bart Breit, or whatever his name is, disguises himself and enters an office building under false pretenses, and videotapes and records third parties without their consent, that is considered exposing the truth.

    If Americans do something similar, but far less deceptive, then that is infiltrating and smearing.

    So, does that sum it all up for you?
