It's not elitism to say Tea Partiers are morons. It's reality. Whatever your political inclination is.

I had attended a few 'Tea Parties' before they were co-opted by the Republican Party. I guess you could say I was a Teabagger before it was cool, or before it was square. Whichever.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

It's not elitism to say Tea Partiers are morons. It's reality. Whatever your political inclination is. I think the average Tea Partier is "more intelligent" than the average American. But indeed it is foolish to generalizing to such a degree - there be both idiots and geniuses within the Tea Party, probably within almost any group, and to say "Tea Partiers are morons" makes he who posts such appear as though he is one himself, does it not? That said, I think Tea Partiers, on average, would be at least open to the idea of Bitcoin if approached from the "anti-fed" angle - and indeed isn't that the most important angle from which to approach Bitcoin, regardless?

If the tea party sticks to fidelity to the constitution, smaller government (much less military and entitlement spending), and increasing personal liberty; Then, I still support it.

Ron Paul, whom I respect, didn't start it either. Actually, the Tea Party was started by the Ron Paul supporters to get people to fund Ron Paul 2008 campaign. When the presidentials were over, Fox News, in their line of copying Ron Paul rethoric, co-opted it.

The 'Tea Party' was started many years after the Tea Parties on April 15th and on the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. The idea was started by libertarians & like people, picked up by Ron Paul supporters leading into the 2007 Republican nomination cycle (who are also far more libertarian than the rest of the Republican Party), and co-opted by the Republican Party around 2009 after it became apparent that it wasn't going to fade away. I was there for most of it, I watched it happen.

I'm not a party affiliate myself, but in this election cycle, Ron Paul is at least as loud a voice as Chuck Schumer. Adopting bitcoin is no more extreme than ending the federal reserve.

You keep telling yourself that, despite all of the evidence. Don't let the facts disturb you. I probably expressed myself somwhat carelessly. The Tea Party movement indeed enjoys widespread support, however, the politicians who are elected are no different from other politicians, i.e. they accept campaign contributions from the highest bidders and pay scant regard to the views of their supporters, apart from lip-service and rhetoric. Libertarian and/or republican values can never equal the aims of the corporations who provide campaign contributions.

The "Tea Party" is a joke. Do you think Samuel Adams filed for a permit to have an assembly? The real Tea Partiers had real torches and pitchforks. You think a bunch of geriatrics, who had no problem with Big Government when Bush the Dumber was in charge, have any ideological consistency? They wouldn't know ideological consistency if it bit them on their wrinkled asses. Most of them MOST OF THEM are opposed to ANY cuts to social security or medicare, at least until they are dead and the genXers get to pick up the tab.
I donated to Ron Paul as part of the Money Bomb. I was one of the very few who voted for him in 1988. Now I feel like a sucker for doing so. He's just another rich old man pissed off about birthright citizenship and wanting to go back to the way things used to be. Hey Ron, IF THINGS WERE SO GREAT, THEN HOW COME THEY GOT SO SHITTY? The Constitution is just a promise by the guys with guns not to shoot us unless they really really want to. Limited government is impossible because the government interprets and selectively enforces the rules that limit it's power. The American experiment was a failure. A noble attempt, maybe, but ultimately a giant steaming pile of fail.
