| #9 So, Mr. McConnell, since you think that Tea Partiers are terrorists, you believe that those Arab clowns flew the planes into the World Trade Center because they wanted lower taxes in the U.S.? You're a f*cking IDIOT. |

| #8 Twitter: @McConnellPress Tele: (502) 582-6304 Taxed Enough Already. What is wrong with that belief? |

| #4 As the Tea Party began impacting elections several years ago people were calling for the movement to become a third major party. It could then be said the Tea Party abandoned the Republican party instead of what I refer to as a "guerrilla" political movement. The leadership would then be "exposed" and would become targets of the Dems and the Rhinos. But now we see that the Rhinos are becoming the militants. Because they are feeling the heat. That means the Tea Party should stay the course. Stay "guerrilla". An effective loosely nit movement. Stay effective but out of the line of fire. Our leadership is ideology. Not 1, 2 or 3 key figures. |

| #3 I think the strategy is to keep the status quo in which voters have two choices: Republican or Democrat. IOW: tweedledee and tweedledum. So I'll keep throwing my vote to obscure third party candidates as a protest. McConnell sure as hell won't get it. |

| #1 "The Persistence of the Old Regime" Death before reform, right Mitch? If you teach us that it can't be reformed, there's no need to support it further. So be it. |
