Two Tea Parties

[sophia-sadek.livejournal.com]

Now that the Tea Party has taken the plunge to support racism in Arizona, the Party will have the obligatory split over policy. I see a division into two distinct Tea Parties: one of them based on black tea and the other based on green tea. The black Tea Party would continue to support racism (black represents the color of their heart). The green Tea Party will favor a more rational, natural approach to immigration.

What is your opinion of these two parties within the Party? Which other policy divisions can we look forward to?

I'm glad your reading comprehension levels remain the same.

the majority of the people who support the law

This ain't rocket science here, buddy.

Sorry, you fail too.

[dwer.livejournal.com]

I know you won't ever change. Rock doesn't evolve.

[404.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you have so much to offer, do please keep it up.

Considering that you are just telling people that they "fail" (as if your word counted for anything on it's own) I think it is pretty ironic you'd make a remark like this. Come back when you have some substance to your arguments.

[404.livejournal.com]

You do as well, since you have gained the ability to channel the inner thoughts over every person who supports the AZ bill.

it's funny because while Futurebird suggests that there's evidence to back up her assertion, you don't.

[404.livejournal.com]

and can't show any... other than vague quotes from amorphous sources...

[dwer.livejournal.com]

which has nothing to do with the fact that you're suggesting you know peoples' minds better than she does, and provide NO quotes from NO sources.

[404.livejournal.com]

Never said I did. I am merely pointing out that she can't speak for the majority that does.

[dwer.livejournal.com]

but of course, YOU can.

here's a little... now your turn

"Obviously not," Brewer replied. "You know Arizona has been under terrorist attacks, if you will, with all of this illegal immigration that has been taking place on our very porous border. […] The whole issue comes back, that we do not and will not tolerate illegal immigration bringing with it very much so the implications of crime and terrorism into our state."

Republican governor, Jan Brewer

This is hyperbole.

Rep. Pearce, R-Mesa, said during an interview on “Morning Edition” on KJZZ (91.5 FM) that he would support bringing back a controversial federal program dubbed “Operation Wetback,” which was designed to apprehend and deport illegal Mexican immigrants in the mid-1950s.

“We know what we need to do,” Pearce said on the radio show. “In 1953, Dwight D. Eisenhower put together a task force called ‘Operation Wetback.’ He removed, in less than a year, 1.3 million illegal aliens. They must be deported.”

State Rep. Russell Pearce (Who introduced the bill)

The bill was written by Kris Kobach, he thinks that today's immigrants will "divide the United States into two peoples, two cultures, two languages."

It's not hyperbole. Have you even looked at how much the crime rate (and just random crimes but kidnappings and murders) has risen in AZ in the past couple years, most of which is due to the illegals?

[dwer.livejournal.com]

Who's offering you anything?

[404.livejournal.com]

I see you are her to be the little self-important partisan dog who yips at the slightest noise and then promptly craps on the floor.

[dwer.livejournal.com]

it's funny because I'm over here, and you're looking in the mirror.

[404.livejournal.com]

Right. Whatever you say boss.

[futurebird.livejournal.com]

Wow, that was really mean, I bet you thought you were going to hurt dwer's feelings BAD with that one... I mean seriously, can we have a conversation instead of tossing insults around? I find the latter boring.

[404.livejournal.com]

Sure, when he decides to actually add something rather than drive by snark.

[dwer.livejournal.com]

it's funny, because http://community.livejournal.com/talk_politics/531611.html?thread=38197659#t38197659.

[404.livejournal.com]

pot calling kettle black?

[404.livejournal.com]

they weren't random.

[abomvubuso.livejournal.com]

Yet, i suggest they cease.

"I know you won't ever change. Rock doesn't evolve."

This is now not an insult.
