Tea Party: Cornyn (R-TX) Booed


Okay, so he was booed at the tea party.  That's somewhat interesting because he's a far right guy.  Anyway, what really got me was the article at the Austin Statesman, and particularly the comments section.  Check it out:

The comments are really wild, and very few want anything short of some vague revolution.  They seem to be completely unsatisfied by even the most right-wing politicians.  They can hardly articulate what they want, but it's not something Republicans can provide.   One in particular, reveals the level of anger I'm talking about, and the insane roots that feed it.  I'll post it below, but the whole batch is illuminating as almost all of them veer away from the typical right/left, liberal/conservative memes and into much stranger places than even I knew.

I have repeatedly contacted the Senators office About, 1.Stopping socialism in America! 2.Having him confront Obamie on the hypocrisy of, dont get involved with Iran( his muslim brothers) but threaten Israel. 3.Obamies support of Chavez, Castro, Noriega, but threaten Honduras because they do not want an Obamie for there dictator. 4.When Coryn was Attorney general of Texas, his leadership was nil and void, I pursued his office for help with an ex-wife who owed me $43,000.00 and his staff would not help a Man due child support.Now she is dead and had and inheritance of over $100,000.00 The Great State of Texas AGS office would no help me get my court ordered child support! 5. Coryn is not Conservative, just a weasy washie politician who forgot his constituents once he is power.

Sarah Palin: Community Organizer?


This just occurred to me and apologies if it's already been blogged, because it's pretty obvious and funny.  But when Palin said that "we know we can effect positive change outside government at this moment in time," was she announcing the beginning of her career as a .... gasp...

....COMMUNITY ORGANIZER??
