Eric Odom talks 2010 Tea Party efforts

[xiola6969]

democrat nor republican will be the savior of the American people we must cast off these facades and become Americans again and unite to truly conquer our division and problems or our union is going to fall apart. I will only Vote Tea Party

[DannoJyd]

Well done, Eric!

You keep up the good work, and we'll be there when you need us.

[PatriotSue]

Americans have been scammed long enough, by corrupt traitors in our government. The number one issue, should be removing ILLEGALS from our country, securing our borders with the National Guard. stopping "automatic birthright citizenship" and holding traitors accountable. Millions of jobs could be created over night for law abiding U.S. citizens, just by ENFORCING OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS. As long as 20,000,000 FOREIGN NATIONALS are trespassing here, illegally, this is not a sovereign nation.

[PatriotSue]

I cannot understand why any so called "American grassroots organization" is not standing up against, the ILLEGAL ALIEN INVASION. A whole lot of true American patriots are going to be outraged, if they find out, any of your groups support legalizing ILLEGALS. Maybe you don't, but we do not hear you standing up for the U.S. citizens on this issue.. Maybe you have, but I haven't heard it.

[PatriotSue]

Mr. Odom are you with Freedomworks? Dick Armey was for Amnesty for ILLEGALS, a few years, ago. We have Republican Senators signing on to AMNESTY for ILLEGALS in 2010. Republican Senator Lindsey Graham is helping Senator Charles Schumer craft an Amnesty bill. Maine Senators Collins & Olympia, Ohio Sen. Voinovich and RINO McCain have promised to sign on to Amnesty, if a guestworker program is involved. Traitors one and all. Where do you stand?

[coreycr8888]

Eric, nice work...from 0 to 20% in a year! Keep fighting...we are behind you ...great work on the strategic shift to election work...I (as Im sure many tea partiers did) though of something like i-caucus without knowing what i-cacus was ...glad to hear they are doing this formally...its a no brainer in my mind...is there some kind of training to help local / state tea party groups implement icaucus vetting for anyone who wants to start this in their area for the 2010 election cycle?

[coreycr8888]

Please keep going on these shows and telling people about the tea party movement, icaucus, and all the great activism/election prep work the tea party movement is doing! I bet you wont see Olbermann asking you to come o the show to discuss your strategy, clear up his out of context quotes, or doing a follow up story on the recent poll numbers (20% say they are for the tea party movement) or bring up icaucus.

[Stingray3440]

Argue with idiots, this is the type of answer you get. No truth, no common sense, just stupid comments from, you guessed it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,IDIOTS!

Move to Cuba you think the commies are so great. Or better yet, Detroit. There's 50 yrs of Libs running the show, see how that worked out.....

[rightwingdestroyer]

@Stingray3440 lol your pathetic

[rightwingdestroyer]

@Stingray3440 lol when are you even going to say anything that makes sense??

[Stingray3440]

I am a working, tax paying, law abiding US citizen and what is going on is criminal. I have a gun...and I'm a good shot.

[rightwingdestroyer]

@Stingray3440 lmao dont you need a job to be a taxpayer ? your clearly not smart enuff to have a job lol

[skyblue19632]

Want to know what the Tea Party is really all about? It seems a lot of you commenter's have totally missed it....

UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION!!!

[anotherfoolonthehlLL]

Tea Parties are a White majority who want their country back. Nobody organizes better than Whites. No race has ever accomplished more than Whites.  They have no problem following "rank". They build armies. They go to the moon. They conduct symphonies and publish scholarly literature. Organization is the strength of Whites. Like army ants they organize by nature and crush anything they don't like. It is their formidable strength. And it is the downfall of all other races.

[Stingray3440]

play that race card. What? R U 12yo?

[rightwingdestroyer]

@Stingray3440 lol the tea baggers lol do you know what teabagging really is I think youve had it done to you and like it dont ya

[rightwingdestroyer]

lol you cant really be that stupid . Can you?

[anotherfoolonthehlLL]

Well, @stingray, just look at your TV and newspaper coverage. How many white heads do you count at those Tea Parties? How many blacks have you seen supporting someone other than Obama? Don't lie to yourself. Admit the facts. I know its hard, because it makes you feel like a racist. But a rose by any other name is still a rose. And facts are still facts. Whites are the ones who took the risk on Obama (blacks always vote black) and now Whites are the one's regretting it and fighting back.

[Stingray3440]

You sir, are a racist. U see color, not issues. I could not vote for McCain (OR WORSE, BO) If Michael Steel was available, I would have fell all over myself to see him elected. STOP playing the race card, no gonna work. Its ISSUES stupid. But you keep your 4th grade education (followed by some prison time I'm sure) ...simpleton.

[Stingray3440]

"Well, @stingray, just look at your TV and newspaper coverage" NO, this IS YOUR problem. U believe that crap?? I have attended tea parties, they are NOTHING of the sort displayed by the Lame Stream Media. This are honest, working, tax paying voting citizens concerned with this gov't stealing and thieving from them.

[Stingray3440]

and another thing foolonthetake,

BLACKS are not the largest minority in the country (because they think killing each other is the right thing to do)

[anotherfoolonthehlLL]

Stingray - move out of your parent's basement already, give them back their credit cards, and go get a job.

[Stingray3440]

Typical lib, NO FACTS, just more BS and insults. END OF STORY.

[rightwingdestroyer]

@anotherfoolonthehlLL lol Don't let this idiot bother you he's just another hate filled Republican thats lil feelings are hurt because his party is out and bush set them back a thousand years .

[carsedbarajas]

The tea party movement is not black-white-brown, it is about the green! aka money and keeping it & more importantly it is about "WE THE PEOPLE" not those fools in the White House who believe that they are kings and queens. Keep trying to use the race card & as more & more black conservatives are coming out of the closet & want to be heard, it is certainly going to backfire because the issues with the Tea Party is not about race, no matter your race most of us want to keep more of your money

[hobo59]

I think no matter what way this next two elections go. We'll most likely see armed conflicts breaking out.

[jsruss1961]

The old careerist cronies that have inhabited D.C for decades are no more than meat that is bought, sold and traded among special interest groups, foreigners, elitists, intellectual fools, corporations, financiers and God only knows who or what else. There is not a dime's worth of difference between democrats and republicans (not worth capitalizing) at that level of corruption, filth and greed. Change will come one way or the other and somebody is going to pay for destroying this country.

[robert7232]

I totally agree. In fact, it seems that a lot of people are starting to wake up and get on board.

[PotheadPundit]

Expect a ton of democrat money being secretly tunneled into the possibility of any tea party candidate. Tea Party Candidate = 7 more years of obama

[TheHauptsturmfuhrer]

Washington DC has become Hollywood for the ugly & they are way out of control

This crazy group of menopausal old men and women have all been bought & sold

America needs better Representatives who have the courage to fight and win,

not these crying career looses, who can only spin and spin and spin

If we don't get our country straight damn soon,

we'll have a Chinese President instead of the coon

No war,no health care,no immigration- and

nothing that isn't voted by the citizens Plan

[172677]

I hope the teabaggers do stand someone for election....I LOVE the teabaggers.

This lunatic fringe is assuring the further decline of the Republican party. They are also guaranteeing an easy win for any Democrat running anywhere,.

Go teabaggers!!!!!

[Stingray3440]

Oh really 172677dope. Fringe a? thats why there are more Tea Party citizens than Dums or Re-pubic's - But that is just what I would have expected from a simpleton. We like your type. So when you get your ass kicked out of power, you'll go "Gooooollleeeee, what happened!!!????"

[172677]

Sorry, but you are so wrong.

There have always been about 20% of our citizens who live on the fringe of society.... They don't vote, are poorly educated, contribute nothing and are filled with fear, ignorance, bigotry and hate.

Teabaggers are this decades name for these pitiful folks.

They can't answer questions about what their goals are. When asked, they have no grasp of why they are "protesting"...just following orders from Fox and those corporate sponsors who egg them on...

[Stingray3440]

Sorry, but you and your "pals" have been stealing from us and we're DONE.

U work for the Gov't don't cha? I bet you do. Or sucking from the public TIT. How else could someone be so FUCKING BLIND.

[172677]

Educated my foot. No one with an education above high school would use the language you do to try to make a point. Educated people have a good grasp of the language and have no need to use profanity - which is the weapon of the witless and the common crutch of the conversational cripple.

The response you removed came across to my email anyway....a revolting display of violence and profanity typical of the Cracker nation of tinhatters and teabaggers.

I'm done with you and your filth.

[Stingray3440]

OMG, another so called "educated" nitwit. U missed one of your classes. COMMON SENSE 101. Oh, so Revolting! Stealing the American tax payers money is ok with you though. Hey, smart guy (and I use the term lightly) just as a typical Lib - you did not answer my question. YOU WORK FOR THE GOV'T - Yes or No? (Its ok, I already know) Ta ta.

[rightwingdestroyer]

@Stingray3440 anyone else think Stingray should move out of his mommys basement???

[Stingray3440]

Yep, just the answer I would have expected from an "educated" nitwit. But once again, no answer to the real question. End of conversation.

[172677]

Ok, here's your answer. I am retired after 32 years of owning my own small 3 person business in an industry that is probably one of the most exciting and satisfying of all. Raised 2 great kids...as a single MOM....and saw them both through college by the sweat of my OWN brow. I proudly served in the Marine Corp and have a BA degree from a small state university.

I have Medicare and Social Security...which is my major income. I supplement it on Ebay.

And, I'm a "smart gal",,,,

[Stingray3440]

I'm calling you out. "revolting display of violence and profanity typical of the Cracker nation of tinhatters and teabaggers." THIS IS TOTAL BS. YOU prove to me ONE, just ONE case of a tea party person doing ANYTHING of the sort. YOU CAN'T - U LIE! U have no idea WTF you are talking about. I honor you for your yrs of service to our county but if anyone should know that we are having freedoms ripped from us and thugs running our gov't, IT SHOULD BE YOU!

And BTW, you ARE on the public dole.

[Stingray3440]

WAKE UP!!!!!! Hellooooo???? Next time there is a tea party in your area, go to one. Its incredible. Watching the worthless MSM - is NOT the story. I've been there. They are not covered by the MSS because they are run by BO Bots. WAKE UP!!!!

[172677]

Sorry, I don't hang out with morons and idiots.

My political activism is reserved for intelligent activities that are based on knowledge of the issues, ability to think, use reason and logic.

If asked a question, I can tell exactly why I'm "there" and what it is I'm "there" for.

Those uneducated boobs can't even tell anyone what their signs mean or what the slogans they use mean.

It's the Cracker nation at work.....

[Stingray3440]

Just what we need. another "educated" nitwit. U don't know, and you don't know you don't know. Socialism is not the answer. Its been proven over and over again. I would think a "smart" person like you would know that. But nope, just another "educated" box of rocks.

[172677]

Typical of the tinhatters and teabaggers of the Cracker nation. They think anyone with a higher education is "elite".... That's because they are so poorly educated themselves that all the big words confuse them....they don't know what the words mean.

Define socialism, you nitwit...bet you can't.

[Stingray3440]

Yeah the 20% that are working and paying for you "smart" people - to be idiots and robots to elect the joke of Gov't we have now.

[rightwingdestroyer]

@Stingray3440 long live Obama

[rightwingdestroyer]

@Stingray3440 hmmm odd I've never met a teabagger in person come on up here I'll tea bag ya

[rightwingdestroyer]

lmao yea your right just look at the tea party candidate in ny lost a seat that hasnt been held by a dem since before the civil war

[DillonX]

They need to just call the new party "The Tea Party" - and put MIchele Backman, Jim DeMint, Sarah Palin, and other Creationists in it - some candidates who'll put prayer back in the public schools.

[putittogether]

@DillonX Written like the true bigot, you are.

DillonX you Scumbag.  I hate bigots.

[delreydavid]

you mean some canidates that stand no chance in a national election because they are straight up whack jobs. Why can't kids in public schools spend over 7 hours without praying? Are they that gragile?

[Tankofduluth]

To all who feel a third party is bad for the Republican vote. Grow some. Vote for what you believe in. Stop the vote for the lesser of two evils. For once vote for the candidate you truly want in office!

[nospacesallowed]

Yeah, good call if you want the democrats to win.

[Tankofduluth]

I understand your argument but I didn't want the democrats to win the last election so I voted for McCain. Yea, the guy who said "Don't be afraid of Obama" They won.

So in the next election I vote for who "I" personally want to be in office.

[garwoodv6]

The most effective thing the Tea Party can do is to vet and support CONSERVATIVE CONSTITUTIONALIST candidates/incumbents -OR- nominate their own candidates to run within the two parties in the Primaries The candidate would preferably be -but not exclusively limited to- a Republican -so long as they meet the criteria Conservatism, Constitutionalism, and accountability.

[garwoodv6]

ROFLMAO! Liberal shills voting on the FOX poll, to be sure... How could 31% of the respondents to the poll NOT KNOW of the Tea Party Movement and yet be on the The FOX wabsite? How did they find the website? By watching FNC? Probably. With all the coverage afforded by FOX News about it, how could they claim they have never heard of the Tea Party movement?

The Liberals and their ilk are slipping into their own hole, and they know it!

[honeybunch612]

I agree with PCBRealtor. We must work within the two major parties. I threw away my vote on Ross Perot even though looking back on the election he was still the best candidate running.

[PCBRealtor]

Be careful... Do not let this turn into a third party movement...Remember Ross Parot? He helped elect Bill Clinton by running a thrid party to the right of the Republicans, splitting the vote...

[reibroker]

I am very much looking forward to what all the "members" of the Tea Party are going to accomplish in 2010 and well pleased at the opportunity to serve in the effort. You did well Eric. We are not a joke, we are not extremist radicals, we will not be quiet, and we will not go away.

[yittlekapop]

The poll truley doesn't represent the true amount of americans that endorse the Movement The women who stay indoors alot the kids (20's) who just understand the government because It's not taught any more GO Tea PARTY Check out THE Patriot Caucus

[ArtisanTony]

31% never heard of it? LOL, those are the ones playing world of warcraft or just have no clue to begin with. :)

[MrWarriorsMom]

Let's continue to grow and get stronger. Support your tea party organizers. Attend the rallies, let your voice be heard.
