Both the Dems and the Reps loves them some wars and handing out goodies to their cronies and bread and circus to the sheeple so they go back to sleep. The Tea Party is the only group trying to stop this. Win or lose it won't matter. The gravy train cant go on forever. At least if we stop it now it wont hurt as much.

The real story about the tea party movement
by lifeisgood ini started this thread because some people are telling lies in another thread about the tea party.. i am one of the volunteers that helps arrange and put on tea party rallies in southern mississippi.
we do not have a membership roll.. we are not a political party.. we have one basic issue that we are addressing, which is: we want federal spending to be lower than federal revenues.
we do not say how this is to be achieved.. some liars on this site are claiming that the tea parties are actively pushing to achieve the balanced budget by cutting only liberal policies.

Are you suggesting that evangelical christians have no constitutional right to express their choices by voting or by organizing and being active politically? Are you suggesting that because the Koch brothers are billionaires, they have no right to express their political ideology and support the candidates they choose?
Good points drewcoul.
The other thing is that the Kochs are not social conservatives. They have no interest in letting religion run the government. For example they founded the Cato Institute which takes liberal positions on social issues. They might even be atheist/agnostics.
Why the Evil Koch Bros. Must be Stopped: They Support Drug Legalization, Gay Marriage, Reduced Defense Spending.

They are Libertarians. One of them even ran against Reagan as Libertarian Party nominee. You people spout the blather you are fed without even understanding what you are attacking. Perfect clone troopers.

NB, your links didn't lead to anything about Soros.
Nice waffling BizzyBee.
Soros admits he benefits from his involvment.
The link I posted shows OSI. OSI is Soros.
Here is the OSI website,
DUH!
What financial advantage would Soros realize from donating (a maximum of $5,000) to the Coffee Party?
On the self interest canard, from my link from before on the "man who broke the bank of England"
It was more than passing strange for Mayer to use the “self-interest” canard. In “Covert Operations” Mayer trotted out a spokesman for George Soros, the liberal billionaire and political activist, who “argued that Soros’s giving is transparent, and that ‘none of his contributions are in the service of his own economic interests.’ ” Six years earlier, however, in a profile of Soros for the New Yorker, Mayer had written differently. The hedge fund king told her how he’d once established a think tank in England “which had at first looked like a fruitless venture”—right up to the minute his connections opened a door into the British bond market. “I made many millions,” Soros told Mayer. (The pound sterling wasn’t as lucky.)
DUH!

Coffee Party founder Annabell Park worked for the Obama campaign, which is wrecking the country:
The New York Times and Washington Post are promoting a group called the "Coffee Party" organized by filmmaker Annabel Park.
The Coffee Party is a political parasite which presents itself as something it is not. As reported in the NY Times [see update below], Park presents herself as not hostile to the Tea Party movement, and in fact, hopes to bring some Tea Partiers into her group:“We’re not the opposite of the Tea Party,” Ms. Park, 41, said. “We’re a different model of civic participation, but in the end we may want some of the same things.” ....
Ms. Park and chapter organizers said they would invite Tea Party members to join their Coffee counterparts in discussions. “We need to roll up our sleeves, put our heads together and work it out,” she said. “That’s, to me, an American way of doing this.”In fact, a simple internet search (which the NY Times apparently is not capable of doing) reveals that Park organized the Coffee Party for the specific purpose of undermining the Tea Party movement.
Park is a former Strategy Analyst [Park's Linked In page has been taken down, here is a cached link] at the NY Times who was one of organizers and operators of the United for Obama video channel at YouTube:A Korean-American filmmaker is in charge of creating video clips that are playing a role in increasing support for Senator Barack Obama, the frontrunner for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination.
"I found that people have little understanding of the change that Senator Barack Obama is advocating. I thought from my experience in using videos for civil movements that videos would be the best way to promote the need for change and for Obama. That's why I decided to work for the Obama campaign," Annabel Park said.
Joining the contest in December last year as chief of a promotional video team, Park has produced some 20 five-minute video clips which have generated a positive response. A clip interviewing actress Kelly Hu in support of the senator was viewed some 10,000 times, and a music video called "Oh Bama " [embed below, Park appears at 1:35]] drew wide attention. She has also produced Spanish-language videos to draw support from Hispanics.
The 40-year-old Park is leading an Obama promotional section on video-sharing site YouTube (www.youtube.com/unitedforobama) with around 10 other volunteers.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uo4QoNfaBoU
Park's Twitter history leaves no doubt as to her hatred of the Tea Party movement, and the formation of the Coffee Party as a counterweight:
It is very clear from Park's background, and her own Tweets, that the Coffee Party simply is part of the perpetual Obama campaign, a means by which to subvert the real grassroots Tea Party movement by co-opting part of the message, but in a way which supports keeping Obama in power.
Much like a parasite which feeds off of and ultimately takes over the host.http://legalinsurrection.blogspot.com/2010/03/coffee-party-parasite.html
So she is not a centrist. Coffee Party is not moderate grassroots. It is a liberal Obama/Soros front group posing in order to dupe people.
Partisan extremists.
Good thing it has been an utter FAIL!

Hah! If that were true wouldn't the Coffee Party be more successful? And wouldn't you have a factual link?
Here is the Coffee Party's contribution page, Bizzybee:
https://org2.democracyinaction.org/o/6500/p/salsa/donation/common/public/?donate_page_KEY=1853
democracyinaction.org is funded by OSI, which is Soros organization.
http://www2.democracyinaction.org/about
“Financing
DemocracyInAction is funded by a mixture of service fees from the organizations using our tools, private grants, and individual donations. You can become a DemocracyInAction donor here.
Many thanks to our foundation grantors, the Surdna Foundation and the Open Society Institute, for their support.”

So now you know Soros ties to Coffee Party. You can't waffle and demand links.
Now since you demonized Koch's possible involvement with the Tea Party, wHat are your thoughts on Soros and the Coffee Party?

Great nonresponse response, JT.
By the way, shouldn't your thread about pathetic schismatic reactionaries be in the Politics section, or do you not understand categories?

Looks like some prefer Colombian, while others insist on French Roadst for their Venti lattes.
The schism in the Coffee Party is so bad, they split up into two different booths at Denny’s
Just because the Coffee Party was a fraudulent “Me too!” effort to counter the Tea Party, and it’s all but forgotten a mere year later — even after a concerted media effort to convince you that yuh-huh, you are too interested in it — that doesn’t mean Ben Smith at Politico is done talking about it:
Schism brews in Coffee Party
The Coffee Party, which launched last year to mild public curiosity in reaction to the Tea Party wave, has receded from public view — in part because of a schism between its centrist leadership and some left-leaning grassroots.
The movement, co-founded by filmmaker named Annabel Park, was initially seen as a progressive alternative to the Tea Party.
As Newsweek reported of an early meeting, members “were angry. They hated the Tea Party, and the Republican Party. They wanted to get even.”
Park, however, says she intended the group to be centrist and non-partisan. She at one point weighed legal action to prevent the left-leaning faction from using their copyrighted logo after Darrell Bouldin, a Tennessee-based activist, started an offshoot called “Coffee Party Progressives.”
Drama! That was on Thursday. Smith followed up on Saturday:
We reported on Thursday of a schism between the progressive wing of the Coffee Party and its leadership. Launched with high hopes last year and seen by some as a progressive answer to Tea Party, the party has instead been an example of the failure to counter the power and energy of the tea party movement — and its own board members are portraying it as an organizational disaster.
This week, the organization also announced the dissolution of the interim board this week, and three board members lashed out against the two cofounders in response.
“We are writing to you because it is our belief that much can be learned from the experience of the Interim Board, and the dynamics on the Board which we believe seriously impeded our process. We would like to identify some issues which, from our point of view, have become problems within the Coffee Party, and which, if not corrected, will hinder its success,” wrote ousted board members Bahiya Cabral-Johnson, Teri Torres-Hart and Sabina Virgo in an open letter.
Painting a general picture of organizational chaos, they pointed to a lack of civility in the organization, a lack of democracy and a lack of consultation.
Not to mention a lack of interest among the general public.
Some things never change… (WARNING: Naugty language)

But don’t get too smug, you wingnuts. The Coffee Party might’ve failed miserably, but F*ck Tea is really going to capture the popular imagination any minute now. Yep. [Taps foot, checks watch] Aaaaaany second now. You’ll see, teabaggers. You’ll see…
P.S. And how about US Uncut? Pre-made signs: Check. Marxist rhetoric: Check. Pathetic turnout: Check. Just another failed astroturf campaign.

The Coffee Party is a "me too" group formed as a response to the Tea Party.
The Tea Party's plank is that the government should not spend more than it takes in, and that government should be limited as outlined in the Constitution.
Tell me, what is EXTREME about that?
The Coffee Party is a pitiful little band of losers.
