Tea Party aims to change the political system from within
Here at the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville, there are no plans to turn the movement into a third party. Rather the group’s aims to channel its following into “a force to be reckoned with in the traditional party structure.”
Mark Skoda, convention spokesman and leader of the Memphis Tea Party, fired up the crowd this morning at the Gaylord Opryland Resort telling them the time is prime for conservatives to regain seats in Washington.
“Barack Obama was indeed our Pearl Harbor for the conservative movement,” he said.
Skoda, who said he’s “a declared Republican, but conservative first,” said it’s time to go after big government Washington legislators one at a time. “What we need now are another 40 Scott Brown’s,” he said.
The convention, which begun last night, is hosting a sold-out crowd of 500 attendees. Speakers today include former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore and World Net Daily founder Joseph Farah.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is set to headline to event tomorrow night.

Mr. Pres., I don’t want to be forced to buy health insurance because I am not satisfied with the quality of care, and I would no longer be a person that exercises freewill. When I need painkillers I am usually treated like a drug addict and given very few. I don’t like being treated like that. Further, cures are usually not sought, only expensive ongoing treatments that can keep the cash rolling in. The only way to keep health care honest is to be able to deny these massive companies business. Health care costs are not responsible for holding back our economy. It’s people who continue to pay whatever price is required for coverage. I don’t want to contribute to this terrible system. Our country will be much better off if people will just cancel their insurance when it gets too expensive and accept death when it comes. No socialist health care system please.
Sarah Palin now realizes; Scott Brown is the Tea Party candidate of choice. You can get a free Scott Brown for President bumper sticker (while supplies last) at http://ScottBrownForPresident.com
I see the Barack Suckers are out in force today…
I’ll say one good thing about the teabaggers. Let me say it while I’m engaging in the activity they’re named for. “Mumpf, mmumfh,numbph ummuffu munf!
Tancredo opens things up calling for a reinstatement of the Jim Crow laws.
Can you say…DUH.
The idiots opened the convention without a single American flag flying. They blamed it on the hotel staff.
But keep in mind; these tea bagging fools are real Americans.
They are making some noise at the Tea Party. Thanks to the genius who came up with the brilliant idea of having all those whooppee cushions made with Sarah face on them, who could resist sitting on her face? And to be able to do it over and over and over…..This Tea Party convention is going down in history with the words ‘Palin’, and ‘Flatulence Blasts’ forever intertwined.
What a moron, wait until this november. You unhinged lefties wil be in the fetal position sucking your thumbs. The noise you are hearing is an avalanche coming to bury democrats. The anointed one just declared his precious health crap bill dead. The tea party movement claims another victory!!
~”What a moron”….You’re too kind.
You’re two of a kind…moronic mopes.
