It’s no laughing matter that the Tea Party movement was originally proposed by libertarians and later hijacked by neocon radicals who attempt to introduce religion into a constitution that never once advocated any religion as a founding principle.

Further, the stolen movement has continued on its path of hate based, faith born ignorance to the point that it will soon drive the deathnail into its own coffin.

Liberty can only exist among people who respect the non violent choices of others and both the right and the left have long since ignored this truth.

Liberty, my friends, is the definition of freedom. If you are prepared to deny another person his/her liberty, you have effectively denied your own freedom.

When they say reject the ideas of the Tea Party, they are saying reject the ideas of Americans. We all know that. Let these puff brains spend their money on attacks. They might go broke trying to break the movement. More power to ‘em.

Labor unions are theoretically brilliant, they served their purpose of protecting laborers from exploitation and abuse as our country grew into a industrial power. That being said, they have been equally destructive as our service industry has declined. Make no mistake about it, labor unions bargained their workers out of jobs in Detroit. In my view, labor unions are right up there on the list of everything that is wrong with American politics. The fact that they are exerting so much energy and financial resources to slow the momentum that the Tea Party movement is gaining only lends the movement more credibility.

Exactly.. Unions can CLAIM all they want they are in control of their members but that doesn’t make it so.. fact is they are as out of touch as the Politicians.

I doubt if they will totally become extinct in some area’s which they are actually safety issue.. however, when it comes to having a union because your job is to change sheets, shuffle papers, and answer a phone THOSE union jobs will die.. a sudden death.. but we don’t need unqualified workers driving heavy equipment because they are CHEAPER..some unions actually make sure companies follow safety rules, that would otherwise be ignored by some companies..

That is the point.. SEIU controls the GOVERNMENT jobs, who are paid MORE than those of other UNIONS.. and THOSE workers ARE for sale.. this would INCLUDE your CITY and STATE workers as well as FEDERAL workers.. the rest of the UNIONS actually made or supply SOMETHING therefore have to WORK.. HOWEVER, that does NOT account for the UNION LEADERS, who one would think speak for the unions but does not.. heck even the GOVERNMENT MOTOR workers have to produce a car now and then..

it is easier said than done.. one does not usually APPLY for a job because it’s UNION.. one applies for a JOB.. you can send out 50 resume’s and you end up where there are jobs..MOST union members have no idea WHERE their dues go.. they simply pay them.. however I must point out to people that the UNION that seems to be doing all this is the SEIU.. strange.. there are many unions, some good and others like SEIU.. I know people who belong to the TEAMSTERS, they have been FAILING their members, allowing ILLEGALS to join and take jobs that American’s were doing and American’s have had their hours cut in lue of this fact.. the members KNOW this and believe me they are NOT voting the way the unions want them to.. Unions have their purpose, they set the standards that all other companies in the industries that are non union use.. however, the spending of the members money is NOT going unnoticed by the members..beleive this or not MOST union members are hard working people they do NOT want their money being wasted I know some union members who even went to D.C. to march with the Tea Party people

[...] Labor Unions Look to Take Down Tea Parties – A new Web site, TheTeaPartyIsOver.org, is working with Obama’s favorite UNION, SEIU, to SMASH the American People as they speak out through the Tea Party Movement. The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees is also involved in this American Public Policy Committee site, which has a self-declared mission is to “prevent the Tea Party’s dangerous ideas from gaining legislative traction.” Yes, like STOPPING the INSANE SPENDING in Washington District of Corruption of our GRANDKIDS MONEY!?!?!

It is time for all the members of the unions who are FORCED to pay dues and join the unions for their (and their family’s) safety and to simply have a job to rise up and QUIT the unions; I am certain if enough of them do, their employers will maintain their pay base and benefits. The time for unions is over and the ending to union tyranny is OVER in this country. Crime and high unemployment plague cities that are ruled by unions – see, Detroit, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, etc. duh

Unionism is dying; they just don’t know it yet. I have been a member of a union, and boy did I get my eyes opened. Unions have degenerated into nothing more than legalized extortion. They are dinosaurs…pretty soon they will be extinct.

Thanks Gwen. There are many more union tea partiers and Republican members than people like to believe. It IS a grass roots movement and it is not going away. It will only become stronger.

It’s funny to hear communists (like Andy Stern, who has published Op-Eds in “The Daily Worker”) describe Tea Party folk as “radicals”.

How can we move the labor unions and the minorities a little more to the center. They have controlled the the liberal press, the MSM, Movies, TV and the ballot box. Once they all loose their jobs and have to work for a living maybe they will grow a set and feel the pain that the other 95% of Americans then they will understand.

Your life is in your hands, your not going to get a hand out or a bail out, no-one owns you or owes you. You reap what you sow and your voice (vote) should not be bought or sold.

Bring your products up to our standards and your prices down to everyone’s level, then maybe you can sell something in today’s global marketplace.

For now you will have to lie, cheat, steal, abuse, rig and strangle anyone willing to provide a message of freedom and liberty to an oppressed public.

This is the type union actions that are the reason why union membership outside of government workers is in decline.

The AFL-CIO has over 11 million members that they charge between $2 and $5 a month for political funds. The AFL-CIO isn’t the largest union in the USA, so you figure out how much money they have to spend.
