They haven't quite faded away -- in fact, according to the NYT, this year, the Tea Party is targeting the Senate.

For Tea Party, Focus Turns to Senate and Shake-Up

By JENNIFER STEINHAUER and JONATHAN WEISMAN

Published: May 12, 2012

WASHINGTON — The primary victory of a Tea Party-blessed candidate in Indiana illustrates how closely Republican hopes for a majority in the Senate are tied to candidates who pledge to infuse the chamber with the deep-seated conservatism that has been the hallmark of the House since the Republicans gained control in 2010.

Richard E. Mourdock, who last week defeated Senator Richard G. Lugar, a six-term incumbent, promises to bring an uncompromising ideology to Capitol Hill if he prevails in November. And he is not the only Senate candidate who contends that Senate Republicans are badly in need of new blood.

In Arizona, Missouri, Nebraska and Texas, Republican Senate candidates are vying for the mantle of Tea Party outsider. A number of them say that they would seek to press an agenda that is generally to the right of the minority leader, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, and that they would demand a deeper policy role for the Senate’s growing circle of staunch conservatives.

Some say they have not decided whether they would support Mr. McConnell, who could find himself contending with the type of fractious rank and file that has vexed the House speaker, John A. Boehner of Ohio.

Anything else?
 
GOP leaders refuse to cut spending, so more Senators need to go before the party gets its mind right.
 
More lies, some made up stuff, and falsehoods.


Maybe some pretending to care about the economy, while simultaneously working on running it into the ground...

You know, the usual.

This was from earlier this year...

On Friday, the Wyoming House of Representatives advanced a bill to set up a task force to prepare for the total economic and political collapse of the United States. Per the bill, the panel would investigate things like food storage options and metals-based currencies, to be implemented in the event of a major catastrophe.
Then it goes three steps further. An amendment by GOP state rep. Kermit Brown*, calls on the task force to examine "Conditions under which the state of Wyoming should implement a draft, raise a standing army, marine corps, navy and air force and acquire strike aircraft and an aircraft carrier." As Miller explained to the Casper Star-Tribune, "Things happen quickly sometimes."

Now remember WY is a landlocked state!
 
We can expect them to provide the moronic seniors of the board with more false talking points.
 
Of course I would totally buy an aircraft carrier if I could. I'd park that bitch right in the middle of the property and run up a flag that says "Bring it on, Motherfuckers!" Yeah.
 
What do I expect from the tea party? More posturing, more claiming that the answer to all the problems we have to is to balance the federal budget by slashing all that damn money we spend on welfare to those damn welfare queens in the big cities and getting rid of the EPA, the SEC and such will bring all those jobs back from China where we all know they pay a living wage.......(of course, that does't include medicare, 400 billion a year, it doesn't include defense because what would my state do without all them defense plants and bases, doesn't include farm subsidies, doesn't include highways spending or block grants for coast guard auxiliaries in land locked places, federally run recreation areas, federally funded libraries, and let us not forget the TVA that basically allows a good block of the deep south to attract the auto industries and such thanks to cheap power......).

I would love to see someone come up with the ultimate law, that no state could collect from the federal government more then they paid in..wanna watch all the red state/tea party strongholds bitching and moaning?
 
The PALIN EFFECT: TEA PARTY FLEXES MUSCLE

The conventional wisdom among the mainstream media is that the Republican establishment would strike back during the 2012 election, thereby blunting the influence of the conservative Tea Party movement that propelled the party to historic gains in the 2010 midterm elections. Implied in this chatter is that the power and influence of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, seen by many as the figure who can best mobilize the Tea Party movement into action, would fade as well.

But recent events in Indiana, Nebraska, and Texas have shown that this conventional wisdom is false.

On May 8, six-term establishment Republican Senator Richard Lugar lost his primary in Indiana to Richard Mourdock, who had been backed by various Tea Party groups and organizations. Mourdock trounced Lugar, receiving 60 percent of the vote to Lugar’s 40.

Mourdock had strong backing from the grassroots, but it was Palin’s endorsement days before the primary that effectively administered the coup de grace to Lugar and the GOP establishment. Four hours after Palin’s endorsement, the establishment Republican group, American Action Network, which had pledged to spend nearly $600,000 for Lugar in the last days of the election, saw the writing on the wall and abruptly pulled out of Indiana.

Last Wednesday in Nebraska, Palin endorsed state Senator Deb Fischer in the Nebraska GOP Senate primary over establishment Republican Jon Bruning and Don Stenberg. Fischer had the support of various grassroots conservative groups statewide but many national conservative groups, such as FreedomWorks, the Club for Growth, and the Senate Conservatives Fund, had spent millions of dollars supporting Stenberg. Many of these groups, especially FreedomWorks, found a potential Bruning nomination to be abhorrent.

Just days after Palin’s endorsement, which gave the Fischer campaign the statewide name identification it craved, Fischer surged in the polls, taking votes from Bruning and Stenberg, and is now within the margin of error before Tuesday’s primary. Palin’s endorsement seems to have coalesced the anti-establishment and anti-Bruning forces around Fischer.

And in Texas, in the Senate primary between the moderate and establishment Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst and the conservative former Solicitor General Ted Cruz, Cruz had been steadily gaining momentum from the many conservative politicians and organizations that had endorsed him, dating back to last year. Groups such as FreedomWorks and Senators like Jim DeMint, Rand Paul, Mike Lee, and Pat Toomey have implored conservatives to get behind Cruz’s candidacy.

But even though he had cut Dewhurst’s lead in the polls in half over the course of the year, Cruz still trailed him by 12 points in the most recent poll conducted.

Then, last Thursday, Palin endorsed Cruz and gave the campaign more statewide buzz and name identification. Cruz’s Campaign Manager John Drogin told Breitbart News that the difference in intensity before and after Palin’s endorsement is like the difference in the temperature of Venus and the Sun, respectively.

“Phones are ringing off the hook, volunteers are signing up, and social networks are buzzing,” Drogin said.

Based on the boost Mourdock and Fischer received immediately after Palin’s endorsement, Cruz will probably get a similar surge in his poll numbers as Texas begins its early voting period today leading up to the May 31st primary.

Contrary to the what is being said among the chattering class, the anti-establishment sentiment, especially among the Tea Party, remains strong on the right. And Palin is still the figure most likely to galvanize the grassroots to achieve tangible results at the ballot box against establishment Republican candidates.

Who can tell what you think, you so rarely read with comprehension.

I assume you read "A_J says he's a Tea Partier" in an article about the Tea Party candidates who have done well with an endorsement from Palin.

Same way merc goes ballistic when I type I'm a Libertarian and all he can read into is, "is ashamed to admit he's Republican..."

You're a libertarian???
 
Even liberals are getting tired of mindless leftism. In this week’s episode of Family Guy, the show lampooned the Tea Party. And Carter Dotson, writing in *********.com, wasn’t buying it:

“And, really, I think the characterization of Tea Party supporters as just basically anarchists seemed like too much of an exaggeration to be funny. I may lean liberal myself, but the anarchist characterization pushed past the point of exaggeration into just plain inaccurate.”

In the episode, titled “Tea Peter,” Peter loves a sign reading "Come In, We're Open." Hanging it up on the door of his house triggers the arrival of people coming in as if the house is a store, and Peter happily agrees, selling items inside. But then Joe then shuts it down because it's an unlicensed business, and Peter, in response, joins the Tea Party and tries to disband the city government.

The episode is replete with leftist stereotypes about the Tea Party: it’s full of racists (white people mispronounce “taco”); they hate government so much that they allow young girls to have sex with their teachers; factories are allowed to pollute at will. Peter’s talking dog eventually concludes, “Hey, so how’s that Tea Party going, huh? More like TP Party. Toilet paper.” Peter shrugs, “Not having a government worked great in Somalia, but somehow we seem to have botched it all up.”

And that’s leaving out the recurring “joke” of the show, which leverages anti-Semitic stereotypes – one of Peter’s Jewish friends, Mort, asks a bunch of roving Nazis if there is a reward for turning in Jews.

Seth MacFarlane is one of the most disgusting leftists in existence; as Ben Shapiro described in Primetime Propaganda, MacFarlane said that receiving mail from conservatives was “like getting mail from Hitler. They're literally terrible human beings ...They can suck my d**k as far as I'm concerned.”

But now it’s MacFarlane’s show that sucks. And that’s just from people on his side.
