Obama refuses or is incapable of leading and instead has decided to play the, “blame game.” After wearing out his welcome with the American people by blaming Bush for all his woes, he has chosen a new target, the Tea Party. Obama’s lack of any presidential quality in handling the debt crisis shows just what [...]

I think we can assume that Nancy Pelosi and the San Fransico progressives are the poster children for out of touch. Instead of reaching out, she insulted concerned citizens. This is why Nancy Pelosi had an 8% approval rating among Independents. The GOP added minorities to its party. Retired Col. West won his race and State Rep. [...]

The Colored People’s letter to Lincoln, which this blog condemned , resulted in a request from the Tea Party Federation –the national umbrella group of 82 Tea Party groups– to discipline Mark Williams of the Tea Party.

As for Mark Williams attempt a satirizing the NAACP, he didn’t show himself to be a racist. He showed himself to be a blithering, insensitive, Jack Ass who has no place in leadership of a broad based people’s movement. In attempting to make some sort of point that the NAACP is embracing a new type [...]

There was a send off of our legislative leaders by the Patriot and Tea Party movement. There was definitely some disappointment with the fact that Senator Bonini best highlighted, the state government increased spending by an amount equal to the “temporary” tax hikes. The other star seemed to be Republican Glen Urquhart who was quoted in [...]

There are lessons for the Delaware as well as the national GOP leadership within the linked piece. I part ways with the author on some of his comments, including his belief that possible extremist Tea Party leadership is in the offing, but I believe much of his piece is right on. I do think he’s [...]

Everyone wants a piece of it. The profiteers, the cooks, and the power hungry opportunists are all trying to get in on the movement. It is ripe for it because they had no leader. It is a purely organic movement. It started under Ron Paul’s campaign and has continued to grow fueled by the socialism [...]

Guest Post–Glen Urquhart On “Tax Day,” I salute the Tea Party movement. And all those new American patriots –with or without a label — sacrificing again for liberty. “Tea Parties” are about being “America, Again.” About avoiding the elitist decline into European socialism. About liberty, not subservience. About restoring the American Dream. The [...]

These principles are what makes our great nation superior to all [...]

Who represents the views and values of Americans? If the choice is the ruling regime or the Tea Party, Americans choose the Tea party. Since we are in the glow of Holy week, we will not gloat.

The tea party movement is more popular than the GOP. Tim, Frank, and I have been making a point for months that the GOP needs to get back to Constitutional, common sense conservatism or it may be in jeopardy. This poll proves the point. It should also be a warning to third party movement that [...]

Thousands and thousands (including hundreds from Delaware) came to a house call at the people’s house. The diagnosis was kill the bill. The crowd had a lot of interesting signs. My favorite was if you can’t read the bill, read the Constitution. Congresswoman Michelle Bachman,Congressman Wilson, and actor John Voight fired up the crowd. They [...]

I just got back from the 9/12 rally in D.C., and I am exhausted. The 9/12 Delaware Patriots took 5 busloads of people over there. There were also several other buses chartered by other Delaware groups and a sizable number of people that drove over on their own. All together Delaware sent over 500 citizens [...]

I went to the “Silent No More” rally in Dover today pretty much to satisfy my own curiosity about who was attending this stuff I’m hearing so much about on TV. You know, were they “grassroots” or “astroturf”? I’m going to do this in a few parts, starting with the signs. I tried to get [...]
