#1 | Reid defends remark likening Tea Party to modern-day anarchists datum

The Hill

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) says the Tea Party is the main reason why things are not getting done in Congress and views it as a party of modern-day anarchists.

Reid on Wednesday afternoon stood by comments he made on the Senate floor last week comparing Tea Party-affiliated Republicans to 19th century American anarchists.

�I believe that, my experience with the Tea Party is that they are against government in any form. They throw monkey wrenches into the government,� Reid said during an interview on the Rusty Humphries Show.

Orthodoxy SUCKS.

"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual." Thomas Jefferson

I've decided to help Harry out here. Here's something I found on the web that is written at the level (3rd grade) that he can read AND perhaps comprehend. You know, not many words exceed three syllables.

Well, if Nerd is a member of the Tea Party, Reid does have a point.

The only point Reid has is his pointed head.

If Reid said the sun rises in the East and sets in the West, I'd have to verify it with at least three other sources.

The man is scum.

Zitat
�We have a situation where this country has been driven by the Tea Party for the last number of years. When I was in school, I studied government and I learned about the anarchists,� Reid said. �Now, they were different than the Tea Party because they were violent. But they were anarchists because they did not believe in government in any level and they acknowledged it. The Tea Party kind of hides that.�

In other words, he lies and backs up his lie by claiming we will not confirm his lie? Oh and Romney didnt pay taxes for 10 years

The man (Reid) is scum.

Yes, but he did provide the Tea Party with it's next recruiting ad:

�I believe that, my experience with the Tea Party is that they...throw monkey wrenches into the government,� Reid said.

"I learned about the anarchists. Now, they were different than the Tea Party because they were violent. But they were anarchists because they did not believe in government...."

Sounds like they're exactly the same.........except competely different.

Agree or disagree with the specifics of the Tea Party platform, comparing the Tea Party to 19th Century Anarchists is like comparing Weight Watchers with the Andersonville prison camp.

The local troll is on a roll today.

I am not a republican I am a conservative, and supporter of the rule of law. And refuse to support any of Roves dopes.

For shame, uncalled for personal attack. He hadn't even commented on this thread and you attack him. Are we cyberstalking? :)

The personal attack was called for.

Regarding cyberstalking: I was just recently informed that it is now forbidden here which fills my heart with joy, as I will be the biggest beneficiary of the newly imposed ban.
