		<description>The establishment has hijacked the movement. Any group is vulnerable to being hijacked by the federal government to suppress liberty. I don&#039;t think they&#039;d be able to hijack the libertarian movement though, because it would create so much cognitive dissonance that the takeover would be rejected.</description>

		<description>I sent several emails to theteaparty.net in regard to their useless commercial called We Are The Tea Party.  I told Ron at theteaparty.net to use the news re. crony/demokrat solar companies and also the electric car companies which got billions of tax payer money.  Pelosi&#039;s brother in law got 3/4 of a billion dollars.  The trend is your friend and yet theteaparty.net puts out a commercial with a bunch of people saying, we are the tea party.  Good grief.  I&#039;m sure their marketing dept. are trojan hoarse&#039;s .  Yup, I believe we have been hijacked by RINO REPUBS.</description>

		<description>The New World Order was up and in control of both parties about six years after the 5 bankers who started Federal Reserve took control of America.  There goal was to get our elected gangsters to put the tax payers in debt beyond any know math.  Well, do you think they succeeded??  The Federal Reserves think tank was created in 1921 and it&#039;s called The Council on Foreign Affairs.  Did you know that Federal laws were passed decades ago that forbid us from knowing who the current owners of the Federal Reserve are??  Have you noticed that not even Fox News says a word about it??  Sure they talk Greenspan, Bernake, and Geitner but have you ever wondered who those incomps work for?? In 1971 the Trilateral Commission formed.  These groups and others decide our fate at their secret meetings.  I really don&#039;t think there is a United States.  Here in Kalifornia I just wonder how Feinstein, Boxer, Pelosi and once again that 100 year old extortionist hack Brown magically get elected decade after decade.  How would you like to be a trust fund child of any of the owners of the Federal Reserve??  They own each of us from cradle to grave.  The news keeps us JUST SMART ENOUGH TO BE STUPID.</description>

		<description>Completely agree. Some of the original Tea Party issues (particularly fiscal policy, auditing FED, constitution and lower tax ideals) were purposefully stolen and assimilated into the establishment Neocon-controlled Republican party&#039;s rhetoric as though they originated it  The reason for that is obvious -- they know these issues are appealing and gaining popularity for most Americans. Just listen to some of the  mainstream GOP candidates speak. They often sound like Ron Paul, which would have been unheard of in 2008. In fact, they laughed at these ideas back then. They are phonies. The establishment desperately wants stay in power, and it is sneaking the founding Tea Party principles into their rhetoric in order steal the momentum of this movement, but does anyone actually believe they will implement these ideas if they take office? They&#039;ll talk strong but once in power these principles will be compromised and forgotten about.</description>

		<description>The Republican Party establishment motive is self defeating...It&#039;s not that hard to see that they have been hacking the poles and Hijacking the TEA Party (started by the Ron Paul Revolution) again this year and trying to shove another one of their quasi-liberarian, lukewarm, fuzzymath big taxdollar spending socialist lackey&#039;s down our throats...(in the Republican Primary&#039;s, like they did with McCain in 2008). I don&#039;t think the Repubublican flipflopin&#039; Party understands ??? Most of them are pretty stupid...  It&#039;s a &quot;give me Liberty (Ron Paul) or give me Death&quot; cause !!! (Obama)...Provide a good clean lawful government according to the contract (Constitutional liberty) for government as agreed and promised... (or) watch out for the Ron Paul supporters vindictive, frustrated &quot;suicide vote&quot;. The Registered Republican True Blue Libertarians tend to jump ship from Republican to Democrat in the general (1 vote lost) and Vote Obama (2 votes lost) because of all the hanky panky that goes on by the Republican Establishment</description>

		<description>I have been feeling that the Tea Party has been hijacked. I believe in reducing our spending and our debt, but the extremism that is happening in Congress now is only creating more division and polarization....and getting the so-called left angry and excited. Just like Obama and his group excited heartland conservative America to rise up. Why didn&#039;t we just cut back, reduce, fix some very broken things in our government...like the checks and balances that are abused and don&#039;t seem to check or balance at all? Why are we trying to do it all at once. It seems to me whoever has hijacked the tea party is just inflaming the left and creating DIVISION WHICH PROMOTES CORRUPTION.....and so it goes...on and on.</description>

		<description>It is up to the local &quot;Tea Party&quot; membership to NOT fall into step behind the so-called national movement.  Campaign for Liberty (C4L) has always been formally organized and is recognized as such.  While we have a direction and a concerted effort, it is still OUR membership, that drives us.  The local &quot;Tea Party&quot; groups must stay centered on &quot;local patriots&quot; that are willing to stand.  The &quot;controlled media&quot; is just that.  Make no mistake about, they are all in the grip of the &quot;MoneyMasters&quot;.  WE, the PEOPLE, must stand tall and once again, destroy the evil hold that the &quot;MoneyMasters&quot; have on OUR United States of America.  Gold and $ilver, the only real money must be used for commerce in order to break the strangehold of the &quot;ILLEGAL&quot; federal reserve.  I know that I brought a lot of issues up.  This why we must FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS.</description>

		<description>While Sarah Palin was speaking in TN, former governor of New Mexico, Gary Johnson, was speaking in Seattle.  He&#039;s the real deal.  He&#039;s a twice elected Republican governor who served two full terms.  Hew would be a great presidential candidate.  He built a business from scratch and sold it when he had 1000 employees.  He was a governor for eight years.  He is young.  I&#039;d like to see him run for president.</description>
