31. TEA PARTY members listen to Atheist Crusader, your "leaders" are used car salesmen

Fri Oct 18, 2013, 02:17 PM

Oct 2013

I enjoy having two parties to keep us in the middle, both containing extremes pulling away from the center with new ideas.

Matt Kibbe and Ted Cruz are hustlers, like the evangelist preaching on Sunday after sleeping with your spouse on Saturday. Defaults are not in your interest, destroying the best politicians you have like Lugar is not in your interest. Stop drinking the Kool aid and understand you need Condeleeza Rice as much you as you need Sarah Palin. Karl Rove as much as you need Rush Limbaugh.

Wake up conservatives, but I put my money on Koch/Cruz/Kibbe/Needham leading them over a cliff with their "populist" movement.
