I agree with the Tea Party...but unfortunately most of these Tea Parties are being sponsored by Corporate America.....Irony?

You really have no clue do you? If you had even any understanding as to what makes the economy work and the small business man's expences to employ people and maintain a business. You'd know that we are 70% of the employers in the US and that $250,000, which is counted as personal income, to run a non incorporated business is very common. Why do you think that every time Obama opens his mouth the market tanks. My god man get an education and understand that he is fucking us all up.

Though there is the off chance that MyKey will go haywire and force the car to accelerate to it's maximum speed at any moment, that price to pay is worth it for complete control over your teenager.

people need to stop listen to party politics. This sitution in this country was caused by both parties. the government as a whole has truned this country upside down and pit peole against one another in the name of their party and for their own interests. Which is mainly to keep their power and wealth and stop all others from gaining it. Politicans become very wealthy of of corporate America which basicly run our government. And that wealth help keep them in govenrment and others out.

So effectively, the GOP / Corporate America are attempting to co-op that movement and align themselves with the forces that produced it (the grassroots) - all to regain lost political control. Of course, the principles the brought about that movement will be thrown by the wayside, just as Bush did once he was elected, if the GOP gets back in power. They have no intention whatsoever of changing anything. I believe they're simply hopping on the already established grassroots bandwagon to grow it.

I believe that the GOP sees an opportunity to exploit the increasing discontent in this Country that was first fostered in the Ron Paul Freedom Movement during the last Presidential election. The GOP (along with a complicit MSM) completely and effectively disted Ron Paul's run for the presidency. The GOP lost because of their (bad) decision to go with McCain;. So I think they're attempting to capitalize on the passion of that movement to attempt to posture themselves for the 2010 elections.

So Obama, just like Bush, is selling the American People a bill of goods that's not a tax cut at all. He's taxes across the board. Do you believe all the political rhetoric you hear coming out of Washington? Perhaps you're just naive, which is ok. But you need to educate youself on how the financing of your government actually works via the Federal Reserve Bank, the Federal Income Tax, & the Congress before you accept the pure and utter propaganda that you're being fed by the political machine.
