Funny thing, she is probably correct. All of them, the Huffington Post writers, Al Sharpton, Obamabots, Rush LImbaugh listners, admirers of Hillary Clinton–her style, wit and wisdom, readers of the Washington Post, government contractors running drones, TSA staff frisking 80 year olds with prosthetic limbs, school boards expelling 8 year old boys due to the danger of a toy pistol in a backpack, kill are the insane stew that is america
From where I’m sitting in Australia it sure looks as though the Tea Party is being co-opted by extremists in the Republican Party with the inevitable result that Obummer will be re-elected in 2012 because the Conservative vote will be split and have no ‘fall-over’ from the Democrats as they will see the Tea Party as just a bunch of red-neck conservatives.
The control grid clamps down to strangle at birth yet another attempt by the people for a legitimate voice in government.
Americans, Australians, Armenian’s, etc, ‘we the people’ doesn’t mean a thing to the PE. They got the money, guns, drugs, and oil and what do we have; the right attitude…..LOL !

Unless you’re talking about those newly developed and deployed microwave pain compliance weapons being used in the jails, that statement isn’t quite correct:
“…the number of guns that Americans own has risen by about 90 million”
The anti-self-defense, anti-gun and the anti-knife laws down under make you all out to be big time scaredie-cats afraid of your own shadows or something. I know it’s contagious, but I’m glad it’s not spreading as quickly here in the U.S.
Down under, I fully expect to see a law banning sharp sticks next, followed by fines for touching and picking up tree branches.
The Tea-Party is “extremist” in the sense of being anti-government, anti-Fed, anti-empire, including antiwar.
It’s been coopted by the so-called moderate, centrist establishment – which is pro-war, pro-Fed and pro-government.
Drop the label “extremist” – it’s a demon term used by the establishment to marginalize critics
@Clark
Australia is a big outpost of the empire.
Why wouldn’t it be?
All that mining…all that empty land where surveillance centers can be set up
Close to Asia with frequent tourists from Malaysia China and Indonesia.
The empire can keep an eye on the masses from among the friendly Aussie types. Naturally, disarmament for the plebes prevails.
With all due respect mb4 please don’t ‘tell’ people how or what to write. It makes you sound didactic and obtuse. Just because other jurisdictions would interpret such words with loaded meanings does not transfer ownership to them. In other words, I consider my use of ‘extremist’ valid and justified.
I don’t think the grass-roots of the Tea Party is extremist; grass-roots never are. IMO it’s when you try to organise into a system that has been operated and controlled by the PE for centuries that you will run into the ‘extremists’.
In my experience of politics the game is rigged and all levels of political organisation have the PE’s spoilers in place ready to derail what they don’t like.
I do not share your optimism that owning a gun will protect you from the ‘bad’ guys. What will you use it for ? To shoot some poor sod who comes looking to steal food for his family because the economy has collapsed and hyperinflation has destroyed your currency ?
All I see happening under those circumstances is for small bands of young men forming into guerrilla units only to be picked off, one by one, by a highly organised and sophisticated internal security force that has a vast array of technologies, aimed at full spectrum dominance of the population it’s targeted against, at it’s disposal.
Good luck if you think you can challenge that control grid with your gun.
Sorry if I sounded peremptory in telling you not to use the word.
Web comments can come off sharper than intended.
Nonetheless, i think it’s important to realize that using the same language in the same context as the elites tends to bolster their use of it.
I differ on gun ownership. No one suggests that owning a gun is going to help against Stasi-type units or police helicopters.
But it will certainly help you walk the streets more safely in a time of civil unrest.
It’s not for nothing that the Swiss, who have always owned and used guns, have not been invaded or conquered for centuries. Nor have they invaded and conquered others.
I think change for the better will only come about when enough ordinary people realise that they need to shut down and paralyse the economy. Just stop. Don’t go out. Don’t buy any unnecessary goods and services. Turn off the TV. Sit in the dark if you have too. The economy is the elite’s life-blood and ultimate weapon of control. Remove support from that (if you can) and the Elite will be forced to retreat to their Palaces and garrisons to contemplate their next move on achieving world domination.
Should the Elite be wiped out, killed even ? I don’t think so. To me, the elite are but a side to us all in that elitism is a state of thinking more than being, and can only be contained by understanding and producing forward thinking contingencies that can prevent such ideologies infecting society generally.
For that I would offer that a return to constitutional values as prescribed by the Bill of Rights, Constitution, Declaration of Independence, should be tempered with the recognition that we are hundreds of years in the future now and what may have seemed adequate and right then, may need some adjustment now. E.g. Central Banks and Fiat-money phased out and prevented from re-introducing themselves by market mechanisms and general education through information dissemination through the Internet. Keep the Internet free of regulation but hunt down and expose unethical activity, are but two I can think of.
I think you’re absolutely correct when you make the observation that Australia has become a comfortable, isolated, and yet near to the action platform from which the PE can view their ‘dominions’. We are a perfect camouflage because of our deference to authority and it’s associated endemic corrupt practices that favour the few over the many. We are confused and manipulated by the PTB to a level that requires all the combined knowledge of Jung/Freud to exculpate our minds from it’s claws, on a daily basis.
The PE can walk amongst the unaware, unconscious, sheeple, here in Australia without a care of ever being challenged directly by one of the victims of their activities. Just the way they like it.
This whole use of the word extremists discussion, yesterday I saw Glen Beck on TV do a somewhat good job describing how it can and can’t be used. His basis was the definition in the dictionary, not just one person’s perception of the meaning, and from what I saw, the opposite of John’s description/usage.
John Edwards said… “I think change for the better will only come about when enough ordinary people realise that they need to shut down and paralyse the economy. Just stop. Don’t go out. Don’t buy any unnecessary goods and services. Turn off the TV. Sit in the dark if you have too.”
Things are going to have to get Much worse for that to happen, as in war zone worse.
What’s more likely is people won’t have the discretionary income, a forced option.
John’s anti-self defense and anti-gun comments make it out like there’s little will to live, just roll over and expose your belly for thugs to pierce or stomp.
The “control grid” and “Stasi” comments both reminded me of this article and some of the comments on it:

yep…
But it’s interesting to see the media playing up her dabbling with witchcraft..
Had it been a liberal, they would have been crying foul..talking about christian jihad against minority religions…
The point is the Tea Party IS America.
So are the liberals. So is the madness and the war mongering and everything else.
That’s the reality. Let’s start with that instead of saying this or that is astroturf.
Yes, the anger is being coopted..but the media isn’t innocent of coopting either.
Let’s hear from Christine O’Donnell.
Why not?
We have to listen to Bernanke and Krugman’s drivel.
At least, she’s prettier to look at.
