My experience has shown that tea partiers are pro life and pro war, they supported a trillion dollar war and blame others for the trillion dollar debt.

Not unlike St Paul on the road to Tarsus they saw the “burning bush” of their actions, and those that are still living remain penitent to this day.
Right – like Charles Colson who has switched to persecuting gays and “liberals”
St. Paul never ceased his persecutions, he just changed his targets – ditto these “christians”.

The TEA partiers are the same people that were there.
Sure – never let reality filter into the slogan making – the “veterans” you are running are all “grown up” Berkley and Kent State anti-war protesters
Happy to see the tea baggers claim Sen. Bennett’s scalp though

Berekely? Kent State? The TEA partiers are the same people that were there. They grew up and are now using the very same peaceful methods espoused then to promote change today.

That may explain why a large segment of his cabinet and associates became born again Christians. Not unlike St Paul on the road to Tarsus they saw the “burning bush” of their actions, and those that are still living remain penitent to this day.

Having been a ground pounder who observed the B-52’s strafing the landscape—after we were advised that we could not win, taps all of the Christian charity in my heart to only approach moments of forgiveness.
Not to mention that I suffer to this day with being sprayed with Agent Orange.

Thank you Mr. President.

Juxtapose the psycho machinations of the Nixon cabinet with the desire to truncate the NYT penchant for the truth, and you have Rumsfeld giving them phony memos so as to have them think they were leaked! Ergo, WMD.
Which one is the more serious psychiatric problem?
God bless the 4th Estate.

Mike, I just saw this gripping movie about how important a free press is in a democracy. I had forgotten how President Nixon tried to block (via legal injunction) the NY Times & Washington Post from printing the Pentagon Papers. And then I also remembered why Daniel Ellsberg’s psychiatrist was so important in the Watergate scandal. This movie is till playing at the Loft Theater, and I highly recommend it. Also, I wanted to add that Ellsberg obviously had sympathy for the Vietnamese people having served as a Marine in Vietnam.

58,000 dead. Easily that number of suicides. Erstwhile, Richard Nixon furthered his closet alcoholism and megalomania, laced with terminal paranoia. Where was the Tea Party then?

Thanks for the movie review Mike, I plan to see this one.
