[quote]Some major cracks have emerged in the "Tea Party" movement's leadership.
In October, Amy Kremer, a founder and top staffer for the Tea Party Patriots (whose activists swarmed health care town halls last summer) was forced out of the group for joining a second, more "moderate" Tea Party organization -- the Tea Party Express. Now, the Tea Party Patriots have filed a lawsuit against Kremer and issued a temporary restraining order because she tried to lock down TPP resources on her way out.
The Tea Party Patriots describe the conflict with Kremer as an "intellectual property" dispute. On Kremer's personal blog, (about me: "A genuine Southern Belle with a passion for life, politics and current events... Oh yeah, did I say I am a conservative?!?") she writes that the lawsuit is "frivolous."
[quote]It truly saddens me that TPP leadership is expending an enormous amount of time and resources to pursue a frivolous lawsuit against me when this could have been resolved amicably, which I tried to do. Personally, I believe that the people of this movement would not want any time and money focused on a frivolous lawsuit, but would rather have these resources focused on fighting the socialist agenda of the current administration.[/quote]
Dave Weigel, who has been reporting on this story since it began, noted in October the growing friction between the Tea Party Patriots and the Tea Party Express. The Tea Party Patriots is a grassroots organization, while the Tea Party Express is a more corporate "astroturf" offshoot of the conservative Our Country Deserves Better PAC:
[quote]"As an organization, we do our best to be completely nonpartisan," said Mark Meckler, a national coordinator for Tea Party Patriots. "That's one of things that's allowed us to survive when we were called Republican tools. Tea Party Patriots are very dissatisfied with the Republican Party -- we have nothing against Our Country Deserves Better PAC, but they raise money for Republicans."[/quote]
If this wasn't enough tea party drama for one day, Eric Odom, a conservative online organizer and key player in forming the original tea party movement last spring, has announced he's re-joining the Republican Party.
[quote]Though Odom has no intention of supporting the current crop of Republicans (and proudly asserts that he will work to defeat many of them), he is making his 2010 stand from within the Republican Party, "Love or hate the Republican Party, it's our only vessel in the short term. We either unify through it and make a stand strong enough to stop this madness in government, or we fracture over third party efforts and meet uncertain political demise."[/quote][/quote]

Thank god. Maybe these idiots and their organization will crumble.
Both companies seem fucking retarded to be honest. They seem like the sort of bitches that would bitch about someone else's parenting or something.

What a retarded movement.
Can someone please explain to me why anyone would think the Obama administration is socialist? I mean, he's not a great president, but I have a feeling they don't know what socialism is.

They don't, it's their word for anything even slightly against their views.

I see. So, this 'socialism', can I use it to disagree with people in other subjects? For example, if I were playing chess?
The teabags are full of anthrax.
I was thinking of the... other, form of teabagging. When I saw the thread title.
Knowing Facepunch and all..

It's much more likely you'd come out of the closet like that.

Actually, a bit of breaking news here: Boba_Fett is not a homo.
They're just providing the government with free tea.

I'm surprised. Considering how fat they are I would think they'd want free healthcare
Awww, that's too bad. I really wanted the conservative revolution to succeed and finally take back the Republican party, thus ensuring landslide victories for the Democrats across the board because nobody really wants batshit insane racist fundamentalists in positions of power...except for batshit insane racist fundamentalists.

I'm in. Meet tonight at Tescos.

Their site have a comments-system... interesting.
Hey guys, let's protest about something not worthy of protest!
Yeah! We need an awesome and edgy name to show how edgy and cool our movement is! How about a second tea party? We can even call ourselves teabaggers, just like bags of tea!
Brilliant!
Let's tea bag Obama.
