Smearing the Tea Party and Conservatives

"I also think, you know, just calling it, that some of this tea party anger is racist." -NPR's Cokie Roberts

Leftists taunt right-wingers as "tea baggers." The implication is that the target of their slur is either a woman or a gay man being orally penetrated by a man, and is, therefore, inferior, and despicable. -Danusha V. Goska, Ten Reasons Why I Am No Longer a Leftist Go To Site

Whereas the Right regards the Left as wrong — even destructively wrong — the Left regards all those on the right as evil: “Sexist,” “intolerant,” “xenophobic,” “homophobic,” “Islamophobic,” “racist,” “bigoted” are typical descriptions of the Right made by the most respected names on the left.

President Barack Obama called these very groups “enemies of democracy,” and Vice President Joseph Biden has called them “terrorists.” Obama Administration spokesmen have referred to them as “jihadists,” “hostage takers,” persons “with bombs strapped to their chests, etc. Indeed a Rasmussen poll shows that 26% of the Obama Administration’s supporters – possibly not the least influential among them – regard the Tea Parties as the top terrorist threat to America. -Angelo M.

Bottom Rung Of Society, Dangerous And Deranged

The US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health Abstract Extreme resistance to governmental taxation and authority is derived, according to Freud's theory of anal characterology, from premature and harshly coercive toilet training, in which a child is forced unfairly and against its will to surrender the products of his eliminations (which represent money, among other things, in the unconscious) to parental authority. Among these individuals anal eroticism plays a significant role in the psychogenesis of paranoia and conspiracy theorizing, which may represent a defense mechanism erected against repressed fears of passive submission.

  One of the more amusing aspects of life as a conservative Christian is reading liberals writing about conservative Christians - especially writing about conservative Christian political causes. There's a formula.

  First, you're told there are "dog whistle" or "hidden" reasons for the use of common terms. Second, these hidden reasons trace back to racists and Christian dominionists. Third, and finally, if you use this common language and advance mainstream conservative Christian ideas, you're actually advancing racism and theocracy.
